Dallas Cowboys have missed cornerback DaRon Bland through the first six games of the season. He is expected to return against San Francisco on Oct. 27.

Overview

  • The Cowboys have experienced an inconsistent start to the season, winning all three road games but losing three at home, including a heavy defeat to the Detroit Lions.
  • Concerns are mounting over the team's defense, which has dropped from fifth to 24th in total yardage allowed, exacerbated by injuries and a lack of turnovers.
  • Offensively, the Cowboys rank 14th but are hindered by a weak running game and a lack of depth beyond key players like Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb.
  • Head Coach Mike McCarthy and GM Jerry Jones face criticism for failing to address key roster weaknesses, especially in the running back and receiver positions.
  • Despite the challenges, the Cowboys remain just one game behind in the NFC East, leaving room for potential recovery in the remaining games of the season.
