History Is About to Be Made: Dak Prescott Set to Surpass Tony Romo This Sunday

Dak vs. Romo: Cowboys Passing Record Could Fall This Sunday

Dak Prescott is on the verge of making Cowboys history. With just 160 passing yards needed to surpass Tony Romo for the most career passing yards in franchise history, it seems almost certain that the milestone will be reached when Dallas hosts the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday.

For context, Dak has been remarkably consistent. The last time he threw for fewer than 160 yards in a game was against the Atlanta Falcons on the road last year — his final game of the 2024 season. Before that, his last sub-160 performance came late in the 2023 season on the road against the Buffalo Bills. While it can happen, it’s clear that the odds are heavily in Dak’s favor.

Cowboys All-Time Passing Leaders (Entering Week 12, 2025)

  • Tony Romo – 34,183 yards

  • Dak Prescott – 34,024 yards

  • Troy Aikman – 32,942 yards

  • Roger Staubach – 22,700 yards

  • Danny White – 21,959 yards

  • Prescott is not only on pace to break Romo’s record but will likely set a new benchmark across nearly every notable passing category in Cowboys history by the time his career ends. Playing in a modern, pass-heavy era has certainly helped, but Dak’s skill, consistency, and longevity are what make achievements like this possible.

    Get ready, Cowboys fans: history is about to be made on Sunday afternoon. Dak Prescott could cement his legacy as the franchise’s all-time passing leader in front of your eyes.

    Jerry Jones Speaks Out, Criticizes the Controversy Surrounding the Cowboys WR After the Loss to the Lions
    DALLAS — Jerry Jones has finally had enough. In a fiery radio interview on 105.3 The Fan Tuesday morning, the Cowboys owner publicly ripped into star wide receiver George Pickens for his explosive, now-deleted Instagram beef with Richard Sherman following the Thanksgiving nightmare against the Detroit Lions. “I love everything George has done this year,” Jones said. “But let me be very clear — I don’t want to see him sitting on Instagram arguing with Richard Sherman or anybody else. Put the phone down, stop the social media nonsense, and focus on playing football. That’s what we pay him for.” Mic drop. The 82-year-old owner rarely calls out his own players by name in public, making this one of the sharpest rebukes in recent Cowboys history. Quick recap of the chaos: Lions game: CeeDee Lamb gets hurt and leaves early → Pickens disappears with a miserable 5 catches for 37 yards. Richard Sherman goes on TV and says Pickens “quit on routes” and showed zero effort. Pickens claps back with a savage (and quickly deleted) Instagram story: “Old man still talking.” Internet explodes. Despite the ugly performance, Pickens still leads the Cowboys in every major receiving stat (78 receptions, 1,179 yards, 8 TDs), but Jerry Jones just drew a line in the sand: the social media wars end today. “I have zero concern about George competing and helping us win games on the field,” Jones continued. “My only concern is him wasting time and energy on this Instagram back-and-forth instead of turning the page.” Will this public dressing-down light a fire under Pickens… or pour gasoline on an already raging controversy? One thing is certain — every snap this Sunday will be scrutinized like never before. Is Jerry Jones right to go nuclear on his star WR? Or did he just make the drama ten times worse?
