One of the 49ers’ team leaders on defense had made some hurtful comments about Dak Prescott after Sunday’s win.
talking to NinersNation.comJimmy Ward simply said: “Not good against the post zone.”
Prescott finished 23-of-37 in the loss throwing for 206 yards, a touchdown and a pair of backbreaking interceptions.
The Cowboys failed to get anything going against the league’s best defense, getting nothing from the run game and no real consistency from their playmakers outside of CD Lamb.
The 49ers DB sat on a lot of Dallas routes and had them running for the Cowboys at some points, especially after running back Tony Pollard went down with a leg injury.
Sunday’s loss made for another disappointing playoff loss for Dak Prescott & Co., which has been the theme of the last quarter-century of Cowboys football.
