Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott placed the blame on his shoulders for the 19-12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night to knock them out of the playoffs.

Prescott and the Cowboys’ lone touchdown came on a pass to Dalton Schultz in the first half. Dallas would rack up field goals from there. Prescott had two interceptions in the loss – both in the first half.

"On the first one, I hitched one too many times with [Michael Gallup]," Prescott told reporters, via the team’s website. "Understandably, hitching three times, thought I was gonna go on a scramble but the guy just came back to the ball and made a play. I've gotta throw that one away or use my feet and get out of the pocket. On the second one, the nickel [cornerback] squeezed, and I tried to throw it to CeeDee [Lamb]; but the [defender] was able to make a play on it. He tipped it in the air and to the [middle linebacker]."

Prescott said he understood those kinds of turnovers cannot happen in the playoffs.

"Those are throws you can't have, not in the playoffs," Prescott said. "Not when you're playing a team like that [and] on the road. No excuses for it. Those are 100% on me."

The lack of execution for the Cowboys ended up costing them the game.

Brett Maher missed an extra-point attempt after Prescott’s touchdown to Schultz. But he was able to help keep the Cowboys in the game with two field goals in the second half, including a 43-yarder that cut the 49ers’ lead to four points.

Coming off a five-touchdown tally against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, to have a lackluster performance on offense was disappointing for Prescott.
