WI: Old City taken in Battle of Prague (1648)

As it says on the tin. How would the outcome of the Thirty Years War be different if the Old City was taken before the Peace of Westphalia?

The Bohemian rebels had already been crushed 28 years earlier at White Mountain, so I doubt it would have much of an effect on the region as a whole, and I definitely don't think the war will drag any longer. Maybe a very slightly better deal for the Protestants as they can use the city as a bargaining tool.
 
Let's say that the Old City is captured. If the war does not drag on, what might the Protestant forces get out of the deal?

I'll go even further... What would it take to stall negotiations and have the war continue?
