Jerry Jones reaffirms faith in Dak Prescott, Cowboys after 49ers loss: He can get us to a Super Bowl

Dak Prescott's struggles was among the most glaring aspects of a blowout loss to the 49ers on Sunday night, but Jerry Jones is reiterating his faith in the Cowboys' star quarterback.

"Dak Prescott is a quarterback that can get us to the Super Bowl," Jones said on Tuesday during his weekly call to 105.3 The Fan. "That's the way that's gonna be. We have other quarterbacks on that roster, and players that certainly (are capable) if something should happen to Dak. But I want to be real clear: Dak is very capable of taking this team where we want it to go."

Prescott went 14-of-24 passing for 153 yards with one touchdown and a season-high three interceptions against the Niners. The QB's inability to consistently find receivers downfield made for a predictable offense that produced a season-low 197 yards. The poor offensive play also grossly affected Dallas' usually stout defense, which gave up season-highs in points (42) and yards (421) and allowed more points than it did in the first four games combined (41).

It was the largest margin of defeat for Dallas since Week 10, 2013 at New Orleans (lost 49-17), according to NFL Research, and Prescott called it "the most humbling game" he's ever been a part of in the immediate aftermath.

Considering Sunday night's showdown with San Francisco was considered to be a measuring-stick game against one of the NFC's perennial contenders, the lopsided defeat was especially disappointing. Couple in Dallas' recent woes against its bitter rival -- the 49ers have taken the Cowboys out of the playoffs in each of the past two seasons -- and you have a frustrating trend that would make any fan base discouraged.

Jones isn't fretting about the state of his franchise after one Week 5 result.
