Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had an honest response to Troy Aikman‘s latest Cowboys Super Bowl comments. While speaking to reporters on Thursday, Prescott was asked about Aikman saying he wanted Prescott to win more Super Bowls than he and Roger Staubach combined.

“I got to get going then. I don’t know if I got that many years left,” Dak Prescott said while laughing, per Jon Machota of The Athletic. “I gotta win now.“

Troy Aikman made the Super Bowl comments during his appearance on 96.7 The Ticket in Dallas on Thursday. “I love Dak,” Aikman said. “There’s nothing I’d rather see than see him go on and win a Super Bowl and win multiple Super Bowls, and win more than me, and Roger (Staubach) and all of us combined, if possible, because he’s that type of guy, and he represents himself and the organization, and really our city so well.”

Aikman won three Super Bowls with the Cowboys in the 1990s, while Roger Staubach won two with the team in the 1970s. It’s very unlikely Prescott will win six Super Bowls before his career comes to an end, but he will be beloved by Cowboys fans if he can win one title.

Troy Aikman says Dak Prescott is ‘dialed in’

One could make the argument that Prescott would get a lot of love from Cowboys fans if he could get the team to the NFC Championship game. The last time Dallas reached the conference title game was when the team last won the Super Bowl, which was the 1995 season.

Prescott is looking to take the Cowboys to the next step when it comes to the playoffs. The former Mississippi State star has reached the postseason five times and posted a 91.8 passer rating with a 2-5 record in seven games.

While those aren’t strong numbers, Aikman is all in on Prescott. “He’s always had good energy. He’s always had good body language and all that on the field,” Aikman said. “But in addition to just how well he’s played, I just sense that there’s a confidence about him in the way in which he’s playing that I don’t want to say I haven’t seen it before, but I just feel like he’s really dialed in and feeling good about where this offense is going, the way that it’s playing, and the way he’s playing.”
