  "account": "ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Dak Prescott has matched Tony Romo's franchise touchdown pass record with three TD throws for the Dallas Cowboys during a game against the Washington Commanders. Prescott’s 248th career touchdown pass came via a 12-yard strike to tight end Jake Ferguson, followed by a 3-yard toss to CeeDee Lamb and a 10-yard pass to Ferguson. The 33-year-old, in his 11th season, earlier completed touchdown passes of 3 yards to Lamb and 10 yards to Ferguson. This scoring connection with Lamb marked his 36th target touchdown, the most of any receiver for Prescott. With Romo already having a higher number of victories, Prescott's sole chance to surpass his record lies in winning more games. As of now, Prescott stands at 83 regular-season wins, trailing Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks Troy Aikman with 94 victories and Roger Staubach with 85. The Dallas Cowboys have not reached an NFC championship game since claiming their fifth Super Bowl title in 1995.",
