not going to win many games in this league,” he said.His head coach had a much
different opinion about the second-year quarterback performance.f you get a
chance, go back and watch the tape of No. 4,” Jason Garrett said Monday. “No. 4
is a special player.”Prescott obviously wasn't perfect. He threw two

The Cowboys’ offense, collectively, converted only 3 of 14 third downs and went
1 of 3 in the red zone.The source of Garrett praise was Prescott competitiveness
despite the circumstances. The Broncos sacked him twice, hurried him seven
times, and he indeed hurt his ankle late in the first quarter, Garrett said,
landing awkwardly while getting tackled from behind.t was not an easy game for
him,” Garrett said. “Got knocked around a little bit, got banged up early. Talk
about a guy who battles; talk about a guy who fights; talk about a guy who leads
the team under adversity, under duress. It was special.”Garrett, a backup to

on-field adversity. More than once he has referenced Tony Romo overcoming five
interceptions on national television to will Dallas to a 25-24 victory at
Buffalo in 2007.For Garrett, a quarterback true test comes when he gets hit over
and over, when he turns the ball over, when things generally aren't going his
way.Sunday, Garrett watched Prescott continue to climb the pocket and make
contested throws. With the game out of reach in the fourth quarter, he watched
Prescott scramble for an 11-yard gain on third-and-7 to give the offense a
realistic chance on fourth down inside the Broncos’ 10.Prescott had his ankle
