Something most pay little attention to,
the dating & married lives of NFL players,
though sometimes something like Tom
Brady splitting with Giselle Bundchen
gets major attention.

Dak Prescott has had plenty of girlfriends
since 2016, Natalie Buffet the most recent
that we know of, but the following article
might lead one to wonder if Dak's up &
down performances in 2022 regular sea-
son & playoff games may have been ...

.... impacted by something not publicly
announced 'til the following article (dis-
claimer - "may have been" is rather silly
as there's no one of knowing if it was
or was not impacted by the following,
just interesting to find this out now):

Dak Prescott’s 2022 NFL season ended
on a rocky note following the Cowboys’
Divisional Round playoff loss to the 49ers
in January 2023.

Days after the season-ending defeat, Page
Six reported in January 2023 that Prescott
& his girlfriend, Natalie Buffett, had broken
up. The couple is said to have split in March
2022.

Sidenote: 3 Reasons why Dallas Cowboys
should consider trading Dak Prescott this
offseason, that's the title of a recent article
that says "Dak will never win" (presumably
they're ignoring the Cowboys & Dak's 5 win-
ning seasons, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2021, 2022) ...

.... but suffice to say, they may be referring
to winning a Divisional playoff, something
no Cowboys QB has been able to do since
1995, & suffice to say, hard to have confi-
dence that the Cowboys will be able to do
do with Dak at QB, Jerry Jones as owner/
GM & Mike McCarthy as head coach.

Jerry Jones has failed doing so as owner
& GM since 1995, Dak has never done so
just as Tony Romo never did so, & Quincy
Carter didn't do so, & Troy Aikman didn't
do so after 1995, & Mike McCarthy hasn't
done so in 3 years as head coach of the
Cowboys.

Divisional playoff loss in 2022)

Mike McCarthy has done so 4 times in his
just short of 13 years as head coach with
the Packers:
2016-won Divisional playoff, lost NFC Championship
2014-won Divisional playoff/lost NFC Championship
2010-won Divisional playoff/NFC Championship/Super Bowl
2007-won Divisional playoff/lost NFC Championship
