So credit to them. They\u2019ve earned it, and they deserve it by all means. But, yeah, [we\u2019re] very close.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys\u2019 quarterback further stated that he is excited to compete against Philadelphia and the Washington Commanders next season after watching them play in the NFC Championship game.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cEspecially even watching the NFC championship and those two teams \u2014 teams that we battle against each and every year a couple of times. As I said, [I] feel confident that we\u2019ve gotten the better part each and every time. But just seeing such a dominating fashion [in Super Bowl LIX against the Chiefs], credit to them. It\u2019s our turn, and it\u2019s on us,\u201d he added, per ESPN.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest step for the Cowboys competing at the highest level is for Prescott to return to full health following a torn hamstring during the 2024 season.<\/p>\n<p>Prescott said he is continuing to\u00a0progress\u00a0with his rehab and expects to be healthy for the upcoming season, providing optimism that Dallas will once again be a dominant team during the regular season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy health is good,\u201d Prescott said, as reported by The Athletic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m doing a lot more. I\u2019m getting there. I\u2019m really looking to amp it up here. I got all my confidence. We\u2019ll be fine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The next most important aspect of the Cowboys\u2019 Super Bowl hopes relies on some roster reconstruction, as Dallas will likely have to add multiple impactful players during the offseason to be a real contender.<\/p>\n<p>As previously\u00a0reported\u00a0by\u00a0<em>The Dallas Express<\/em>, the Cowboys must follow in the Eagles\u2019 footsteps and continue building around the trenches to become serious Super Bowl contenders in the 2025 season.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas ranked amongst the worst in the NFL at both rushing the ball and stopping opposing teams\u2019 runs, two categories in which Philadelphia ranked near the top.<\/p>\n<p>Figuring out these points of attack, specifically focusing on adding defensive linemen and a running back, will help Dallas compete against the best teams in the league next year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott discussed the Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl victory and said that he believes America\u2019s Team can compete at that level next season.
