A new camera angle shows Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott nearly knocking out a ref after throwing the game-winning touchdown pass to Jalen Tolbert in Sunday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dak Prescott broke the hearts of Steelers fans by throwing the game-winning four-yard strike to Tolbert with 20 seconds remaining. It capped off a strong night for Prescott (29-of-42 for 352 yards and two touchdowns), who has Dallas back above .500 for the first time since their Week 1 victory.
Mauricio Rodríguez of A to Z Sports shared an overhead angle of Prescott’s clutch TD pass to Tolbert. As you can see, No. 4 was close to (inadvertently) knocking out the nearby official with a fist pump celebration after Tolbert caught the pass:

Dak Prescott is actually very fortunate that he didn’t make contact with the ref there. If he did, Pescott would have likely been issued a 15-yard penalty that would have put Pittsburgh in favorable field position for a game-tying kick attempt from Chris Boswell.
Dak Prescott threw a game winning TD pass, on the road in a hostile environment without Micah Parsons, Demarcus Lawrence, Brandin Cooks and lost his starting LT in the first half of the game. IF Mahomes or Burrow did that it would be CELEBRATED on every show. Dak hate is real. pic.twitter.com/iAGm9QKBqj

The sky was slowly falling in Dallas two weeks ago following back-to-back home losses against the New Orleans Saints and Baltimore Ravens. But with two straight gutsy road victories, the 3-2 Cowboys are back on track ahead of their Week 6 home showdown with Jared Goff’s Detroit Lions.
Dak Prescott Is Off To An Excellent Start For Cowboys
Dallas’ 3-2 record through five weeks isn’t jaw-dropping, but Prescott is doing his part in keeping the team in playoff contention. The 31-year-old has completed 65.4 percent of pass attempts for 1,424 yards, eight touchdowns and just four interceptions with a QB rating of 92.9.
Prescott finished second in MVP voting a year ago behind Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. If he continues his strong start, No. 4 will re-emerge as a contender to win the honors this season.

“They should makeup on Chris collinsworth hands 🤷🏾♂️ #snf” someone else suggested.
“Does Cris Collinsworth have damaged hands, they look like prosthetics and his skin tone don’t match with his face what’s up with that?” another fan asked.
“He’s pretty old,” someone offered. “Poor circulation probably. That and older people tend to bruise easy. So could be that as well.”
Who knows? Maybe he will give us an explanation soon.
In the meantime, everyone’s waiting on kick-off, although things look pretty bleak given the ugly weather.
