The Dallas Cowboys entered the season hoping to look dominant from the jump.
They wanted to prove that they could be a legitimate contender and, as such, take down some of the best teams in the game.
The Dallas Cowboys entered the season hoping to look dominant from the jump.
They wanted to prove that they could be a legitimate contender and, as such, take down some of the best teams in the game.
However, they failed to do so when they came across the San Francisco 49ers, struggling mightily on both sides of the field and looking quite beatable on national television.
That’s why Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The Fan that his only regret for this season thus far is how they weren’t able to get the job done vs. the Niners (via Jon Machota)
The often-controversial business mogul talked about how Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings rose to the occasion, adding that the Niners “can be had.”
He was okay with being 4-2, but he also believes the team’s best football lies ahead of them.
The Cowboys have looked elite against bad teams — except for the Arizona Cardinals — but they haven’t been good against contenders, not to mention how much they’ve struggled to get past the Niners over the past couple of years.
Their defense has regressed since CB Trevon Diggs fell with an injury, and there are still serious doubts about Dak Prescott’s ability to lead the team through adversity
They don’t seem to be on the same level as the Niners or the Philadelphia Eagles, but they’re not that far off, either.
They need more consistent QB play, especially considering the fact that their schedule following the bye week isn’t going to get any easier.
