LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys laid an egg in a 26-6 loss to the Washington Commanders in their regular-season finale. Prescott completed just 14 of his 37 passes and threw an interception that was returned for a touchdown. The Cowboys limped into the playoffs and a wild-card showdown at Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next Monday night with Prescott on a career-long seven-game interception streak. Dallas also had a couple of special teams miscues. Sam Howell won his NFL debut in his first start for the Commanders and became Washington’s first rookie quarterback to run and throw for a TD in a game since Robert Griffin III in 2012.
