Overview

• Dallas unveiled a reworked attack featuring heavy motion and play-action, with no three-and-outs and an 81.5% series success rate in the first half.
• The offense managed only three points after halftime following a 21–20 shootout before the break.
• CeeDee Lamb had four drops, including three after halftime, and said he took full accountability for the miscues.
• Cowboys insider Bryan Broaddus highlighted a 51-yard Jalen Hurts-to-Jahan Dotson completion allowed by Kaiir Elam as a turning point and urged more Trevon Diggs snaps after Diggs played 27 and Elam played every defensive snap.
• Without Micah Parsons, the defense produced one sack while Hurts ran for 62 yards and two touchdowns, reinforcing personnel questions in the secondary and edge defense.
