Dallas Cowboys Face Turmoil with Key Injuries and Leadership Questions

The Cowboys' season continues to unravel as injuries to star players and coaching missteps compound their struggles.

Quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb both sustained injuries during the Cowboys' 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, adding to the team's growing list of sidelined players.
Owner Jerry Jones remains supportive of head coach Mike McCarthy despite the team's 3-5 record and recent on-field controversies, including McCarthy's visible frustration during the Falcons game.
The Cowboys' defense ranks among the worst in the league, struggling significantly without key players like Micah Parsons, who has missed multiple games due to injury.
Dallas faces a challenging schedule ahead, with upcoming games against strong division rivals Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders, amid uncertainty about Prescott's return.
The team's offensive struggles are exacerbated by poor discipline and communication issues, leading to costly penalties and confusion during critical plays.
