FRISCO -- Wearing a "You're Killing Me Smalls!" shirt -- a popular line from the 1993 movie The Sandlot -- Dak Prescott addressed reporters in front of Darren McFadden's locker on Monday.

The rookies don't yet have lockers in the main locker room at The Star, so Prescott was brought in per request by reporters.

A nearly flawless start through two preseason games has made Prescott a popular man. But the perfect passer rating, four touchdown passes and two rushing touchdowns haven't changed his responses.

Prescott says he's not pinching himself, because he has high expectations for himself.

After back-to-back impressive performances, many believe the Cowboys no longer need to search for a veteran backup quarterback. But Prescott said he hasn't made that suggestion to anyone in the organization.

"My mindset is I want to be a starter for this organization one day, and a starter in this league for a long time," Prescott said. "I'm going to continue to push myself and make myself the best as I can each and every day."

The former SEC superstar admitted that he was a little nervous before his first game inside AT&T Stadium on Friday night. The lifelong Cowboys fan called it his "Welcome to the NFL moment."

"When you walk into AT&T," he said, "you realize you're in the best of the best."

Some will say Prescott is having success because opponents are playing vanilla defenses during preseason games.

To that claim, Prescott says he'll take whatever ice cream they're serving.

"That's on them if they want to throw vanilla or rocky road or whatever they want to throw at me," he said. "It really has no [bearing] on what I do. I just go out there and try to concentrate on our game plan and play my best."
