Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys are facing an uphill battle on Sunday against the defending champions Philadelphia Eagles. The Cowboys have momentum on their side after a 33-16 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11, and they are now looking to follow that up with a massive victory over the 8-2 Eagles.

Prescott turned in an incredible performance against the Raiders and is now looking to keep that momentum going in Week 12. In last Sunday’s win over Vegas, the three-time Pro Bowl quarterback registered 25-of-33 completed passes for 268 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions.

Prescott is currently in his 10th season with the Cowboys. He first joined the team in 2016 as a fourth-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. Entering the Eagles game, Prescott has already amassed 3,033-of-4,521 completed passes (67.1%) for 34,024 yards and 234 touchdowns.

Prescott further added to his tally on Sunday. This allowed the 32-year-old to set a new franchise record in passing yards.

Prescott’s big moment came at the 13:33 mark of the third quarter. Prescott found wide receiver George Pickens for a nine-yard completion to rewrite the history books. The 32-year-old is now the Cowboys' all-time leader in passing yards with 34,192. He surpassed four-time Pro Bowl QB Tony Romo for the record.

The Cowboys took to social media to make a historic announcement about Prescott’s incredible career milestone.

The Cowboys, however, are down in this one and will need to have a big second half to turn things around. As of writing, the Eagles are up, 21-7, and are on pace to secure their fifth straight win.
