On today's episode of Zero Blitz, Jason Fitz and Charles McDonald react to the latest comments from Cowboys QB Dak Prescott on his contract negotiations with the team and Bengals QB Joe Burrow on a potential 18-game schedule.

Fitz and McDonald are split on if Prescott will remain with the Cowboys after the 2024 season. The two also share their predictions for CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons and if they stay in Dallas long term.

The two dissect Burrow's recent proposal for an 18-game schedule to have two byes with one being a universal bye later in the season. While both agree an 18-game schedule feels inevitable there's still details to work out in terms of utilizing a second bye week.
