Cowboys' Cole Beasley Engages Philly Radio Host in Battle over Dak Prescott

The Dallas Cowboys learned Sunday that winning without star running back Ezekiel Elliott is not going to be easy.

The Atlanta Falcons routed them at home, 27-7, as quarterback Dak Prescott couldn't keep the chains moving sans Zeke. The Falcons sacked Prescott eight times, with edge-rusher Adrian Clayborn registering six of those sacks.

After Atlanta's victory over Dallas, Philadelphia talk-show host Howard Eskin bashed Prescott on Twitter.

Dallas wideout Cole Beasley quickly jumped to the defense of his second-year quarterback.

The Cowboys play the high-flying Philadelphia Eagles and their vaunted defensive line next week. If Dallas left tackle Tyron Smith remains sidelined, it could be another long night for Prescott.
