Cowboys' Rough Start Exposed | Dallas Cowboys News

Dallas Cowboys’ season opener ended in a 28-20 loss to the New York Giants, exposing persistent offensive woes and a defense that failed to live up to offseason promises. Despite high expectations, the Cowboys were outgained, plagued by penalties, and struggled to hold onto the ball. Their defense couldn’t stop the Giants’ QB or run game, surrendering too many third downs and giving the offense little breathing room. Costly mistakes—including a dropped pass, a disastrous interception leading to a TD, and a taunting penalty that cost them the extra point—swung momentum decisively toward New York. Dak Prescott had a tough day, and the running game remained stagnant. While they scored a couple of second-half touchdowns, the defense’s inability to get off the field doomed their comeback chances. With glaring issues in penalties and defensive execution, the Cowboys return home with urgent fixes needed before their next game.
