Things at the Dallas Cowboys are not all rosy. In the game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, the ego clashes became the talk of the town. WR CeeDee Lamb lambasting QB Dak Prescott after a poor throw got social media attention. When the tables turned at the end of the game, Dak got a pretty special pat on the back.
The only NFL player with a pay cheque of $240 million, Dak Prescott‘s girlfriend Sarah Jane Ramos, extended her love and support via Instagram story. She shared the video of the moment when her bae won the game for the Cowboys, adorning it with a heart emoji.

It appeared as a two-way battle for Prescott. On one side, his opponents encashed his every fumble. On the flip side, his teammates left no stone unturned to pull him down. Just a pick-6 throw and Dallas Cowboys WR Lamb could be seen hurtling a comment. But Dak made a sturdy return with a superb throw, resulting in a game-winning TD at the moment when it mattered the most.
The Cowboys‘ coach was all praise for him. Post-game coach Mike McCarthy said, “Composure is a huge strength of his. He’s the same man every day. The way he works, the way he competes, he doesn’t blink. He doesn’t dwell on mistakes.” Dak and his team also reciprocated this love towards the coach.

It was coach Mike McCarthy’s first regular-season win against his ‘home’ team, the Steelers. After beating the Blitzburgh, the players presented the game ball to him. Overwhelmed by this kind gesture, the coach said it was the first he had received in his career.
Lamb’s wrath over Dak, Deja Vu of the Week 3 game?
Before the match-winning TD pass, Prescott fumbled a few in the game. In the last minute of the second quarter, the QB threw a hasty pass toward the WR Lamb. His bad. Steelers’ Donte Smith took a leap of faith, intercepting the throw. To make it worse, just after that Fields made a 16-yard passing TD. All these messed up plays fumed Lamb. He exalted his wrath over Dak by angrily hurtling comments.
This seemed to be a deja vu of what happened between these two Cowboys in the Week 3 game. As the Cowboys got a thrashing from the Baltimore Ravens, the star WR Lamb lost his cool on the sidelines. He confronted Prescott just before halftime. Just like the October 7 game, the microphones failed to catch the juicy fight then. The Ravens milked this banter, marching to a thumping win led by Lamar Jackson.
With this victory, the Cowboys are now the 3-2 team of the season. They are now second in their division, keeping hopes for the Super Bowl alive. Fans believe that Lamb’s comments were just in the heat of the moment and the team is together for the rest of the bustling season.
