Overview

• The Panthers beat Dallas 30-27 on a 33-yard field goal as time expired after a clock-draining final drive.
• Carolina's decisive series featured a fourth-and-4 conversion at the Dallas 40 and a third-down pass-interference call that extended the possession.
• The Cowboys had the ball tied 27-27 with 8:18 left but went three-and-out after back-to-back negative-yardage screens and never got it back.
• Prescott declined to pin the loss solely on the defense, noting the offense failed to score on a crucial late possession and describing the finish as frustrating.
• Dallas dropped to 2-3-1 in a season marked by turnover-free offense in recent weeks and repeated defensive failures to close out tight games.
