And lip-reading experts have been working overtime since the clip surfaced Sunday.
Lamb looked frustrated as he turned towards where Prescott was sat on the bench in the game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
And he had a few words for the Cowboys quarterback.
One claimed that Lamb said, “Subpar throw. Subpar. Deada**.”
But another thought the NFL wide receiver said, ““Jump balls, four. Jump balls, I gotchu.”
Fans have debated Lamb’s words on social media, and turned into lip-reading experts.
“He clearly said ‘jump balls, four’,” one adamant fan said.
“My money is on jump balls,” another agreed.
While a third added, “Anyone thinking CeeDee Lamb uses the word ‘subpar’ is not serious.”
But there were others who thought Lamb said “subpar” to his quarterback.
One fan said, “To me it looks like ‘Subpars, foe (four). Subpar. Deada**.’”
“I’m going with this ‘Subpar throw. Subpar tonight.’” another commented.
Dallas won the game 20-17 with a late touchdown pass from Prescott to Jalen Tolbert.
With less than a minute remaining in the first half, Prescott tried to find Lamb in the end zone.

But his pass instead landed comfortably in the hands of Steelers defensive back Donte Jackson instead.
That’s what led to the interaction between Lamb and Prescott on the sideline.
NBC commentators Cris Collinsworth and Mike Tirico also tried to guess what was being said.
Collinsworth concluded, “Something’s wrong. CeeDee Lamb at the end of that.
“I’ll let you read your own lips. Dak doesn’t react at all. It doesn’t look good.”
While Mike Tirico echoed the sentiment, adding: “Not a bit. Not a bit.”
