Tad Prescott is very protective over his brother, as he should be. Dak never jumps on social media to defend himself, so his brother has basically is the one who is going to ride for him no matter what.

ESPN NFL analyst Dan Orlovsky is finding that out after he said the Dallas Cowboys shouldn’t overpay to re-sign Dak to a longterm deal.

“Don’t pay good players great player money,” Orlovsky said. “Dak Prescott is a good player. If the Cowboys pay him $40 million a year, it would be a grave mistake. They need to look at a situation like the Rams or like the Philadelphia Eagles and go, Oh, can we learn from maybe paying a guy too much money, so to speak, and how can they not become those two teams in two years from now?”

Tad saw those comments and pounced on him:

@danorlovsky7 on @GetUpESPN saying he’s been correct about Dak. Bro what’s your stand on Dak, you bad mouthed him for years in favor of your boy Wentz, and than favored Dak over Wentz, I have proof. Today your back to your old ways. Just make up your mind already

What Should The Dallas Cowboys Follow This Offseason To Become NFL Contenders Again?

I never said you bad mouthed him as a man, I believe you’re to professional for that, and overall a good guy. But as an analyst you’ve belittled his play for 4yrs, with claims of him being a game manager lacking consistency. Last year, was 1st I ever heard you complement his play

I don’t think he’s a game manager at all. Just think he’s a good player and not “great” that’s all boss. And to be candid I think there are 5-7 “great” QBs in nfl. At the end of the day—dudes beat the odds and going to earn a ton of money—remarkable by him

Only difference is one was a 1st rounder and the other a 4th. That’s each. Same playoff record, and Dak has more wins in his 1st 3 seasons. I love Watson, so please don’t think I’m bashing him. I just don’t see why he’s praised, and Dak is hated

Bro Dak and Watson have the exact same career QBR, and please tell me in what world is the AFC south a Tough division. And yes, im from the area was a huge Oilers fan, and before Dallas drafted Dak, I repped the Texans religiously. Please show me their differences.
