RecapDak Prescott completed 21-of-34 passes for 335 yards and two touchdowns in the Cowboys’ 27-23, Week 9 win over the Colts, adding one yard on two carries.
The two teams played to a maddening field position battle through the first three quarters in what was one of the least disciplined games in recent memory, including a multitude of penalties on key downs, two turnovers, and a missed field goal from the Cowboys. A poor fourth quarter saw the Colts snatch the lead with a late field goal, but a 46-yard deep connection with Ryan Flournoy on the the play of the subsequent possession allowed the Cowboys to take the lead with just over a minute remaining in the fourth quarter. A Caleb Down interception ended the game, allowing Prescott and the Cowboys to escape with a win to send them to 4-5 as they chase the Giants in the NFC East. Up next is a home test against the 49ers in Week 10, where Prescott will remain a back end QB1.
