Cowboys say still time to turn things around after 2-4 start - ESPN

FRISCO, Texas — At 2-4 and in the midst of a two-game losing streak, Dak Prescott knows it is time for the Dallas Cowboys to turn the season around.

He said the mindset of the team is «determined, and I would hope urgent,» heading into Monday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field.

«We can only say we've got a lot of games in front of us for so long. Might be already past us, right? We've got to go win,» Prescott said. «You've got to go win. You want to give yourself a chance to be a winning team, to be a playoff team. You got to win as many games as you can, and when you drop two games — in particular games that we didn't expect to drop — it makes it that much harder. So urgent, urgent to get it done now.»

Despite the record, ESPN Analytics still gives the Cowboys the best chance to win the NFC East at 68%. The New York Giants are currently in first place with a 3-2-1 record but will turn to J.J. McCarthy as their starting quarterback. Like the Cowboys, the Eagles are 2-4, but they will be without quarterback Jalen Hurts for the rest of the regular season due to blood clots. The Washington Commanders are in last place with a 1-4-1 record.

Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb said, «Anybody can win this division, so why not us?

He added, „Very fortunate that everybody else is playing pretty bad. But overall, just everything is still in front of us. We still have our opportunity to do what we want to do, and that's to get in the tournament, and it starts on Monday. So just shaking that back and getting back into the win column I feel like is the most important thing, and that's been the point of emphasis this week.“
