Texas’s Frisco Fantastic that the Cowboys prevailed in the first game of the season. Amazingly, the defense finished with two takeaways and six sacks. Excellent; their final score of 33 was three points higher than their average of 29.9 points from the previous year. They are done with Great Dak Prescott’s deal. However, that was so yesterday. Next up, Sunday at noon at AT&T Stadium, is the home opener against the New Orleans Saints.
And with the second-half offense ending with just two field goals, 49 total yards, and going oh-for-five on third downs, head coach Mike McCarthy was quick to note, “We got a lot of work to do,” before to Wednesday’s first full practice in preparation for the Saints. “We really want to do better than we did last week. Most importantly, we prevailed in the match.
This coming week, self-improvement is the most crucial aspect.”Indeed, the Cowboys are 1-0, but despite their fifth-ranked offensive in the first week of the season with 33 points, they rank just 24th overall in offense, 20th in rushing, and 18th in passing. Clearly, they still need to improve.
