Dak Prescott Sends Warning: Cowboys Will Crush Broncos on Their Way to the Super Bowl
Cowboys at Broncos — High Altitude, High Stakes, Big Opportunity
The Cowboys have not beaten the Broncos in this century, losing their last seven matchups against Denver. Even more chilling — the last time Dallas defeated the Broncos was also the last time they won the Super Bowl. That history, combined with the memory of what happened the last time they played in Denver, brings extra nerves and tension into this week’s showdown.
This isn’t just another regular-season game. The Cowboys are fighting to get above .500 for the first time this season, but doing it on the road, in Denver’s high altitude, against a tough and physical Broncos team, makes the challenge even greater. Can Dallas finally break the curse and walk out of Mile High with a statement win?
Ahead of the game, Dak Prescott lit the spark inside the locker room:
“We’re a team that’s very hard to beat, and right now we’re stronger than ever. Beating the Broncos would give us a real chance to go after the Super Bowl this season.”
Prescott’s message changed the tone entirely — this game is no longer just about revenge. It’s about momentum, belief, and proving the Cowboys are legitimate Super Bowl contenders.
When the Broncos Have the Ball
Sean Payton still relies on his signature approach: short passes to draw the defense in, then attacking deep. But the issue is execution — rookie QB Bo Nix is completing only 32.1% of his passes over 20 yards, which limits Denver’s downfield threat if the Cowboys protect the deep zones well.
Still, the Broncos have explosive playmakers in Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims, and Troy Franklin, all capable of flipping the game in a single snap. The concern for Dallas is the secondary — they’re without both of their starting safeties and even backup Juanyeh Thomas.
When the Cowboys Have the Ball
Dallas must strike early and set the tempo before the altitude and the Mile High crowd start to take over.
Dak Prescott currently ranks fourth in the NFL in completions of 20+ yards, and his most dangerous deep threat is George Pickens, who sits top-3 in deep receptions this season. Against Denver’s Cover 1 man-to-man defensive scheme, Pickens has the potential to be the game-changer. Meanwhile, CeeDee Lamb remains the steady, reliable target that Denver must account for on every snap.

Some believe the Cowboys’ offense will overpower Denver. Others are cautious — concerned about defensive injuries, the hostile altitude, and the franchise’s losing streak in this matchup.
Conclusion — A Possible Turning Point
If the Cowboys win, it won’t just break a decades-long drought against the Broncos — it will be a message to the entire league that Dallas is serious about chasing a Super Bowl this season.
Dak Prescott already said it best:
“Beating the Broncos would give us a real chance to go after the Super Bowl.”
And if they do it in Denver, the NFL will have no choice but to pay attention.
