Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys ended a two-game skid in Week 11's edition of "Monday Night Football," jumping to 4-5-1 on the 2025 NFL season after a 33-16 win over Geno Smith and the Las Vegas Raiders. Prescott had one of his better games this year, completing 25-of-33 passes for 268 yards and four touchdowns, tied for a season-high.

Entering Monday’s win, Prescott had recorded 40 games with three or more touchdown passes in his 10-year career, tied for the franchise record. In the final minutes of the second quarter, he found an open George Pickens across the middle, and the wide receiver did the rest, juking his way into the end zone for Prescott’s third touchdown pass of the night.

In doing so, Prescott now has 41 career games with at least three touchdown passes, passing Tony Romo for the most in Cowboys history. Romo recorded 40 such games from 2003 to 2016 before being replaced by Prescott in his final season and retiring soon after.

Sitting behind Prescott and Romo on the Cowboys’ all-time list is Danny White (1976–88), who posted 20 games with three or more touchdown passes. Hall of Famer Roger Staubach (1969–79) follows with 17 such games. And Troy Aikman, who won three Super Bowls in the 1990s, has only 10, ranking sixth in franchise history.

Initially announced by their public relations team, the Cowboys' official X account shared the news on Tuesday.

"Dak had a night ," the Cowboys wrote. " 25/33 268 Yards 4 TDs 1 Franchise Record. MOST GAMES WITH 3+ PASSING TDS IN FRANCHISE HISTORY."
