After further review: The Cowboys lost to the Vikings because they lost the battle in the trenches

The Dallas Cowboys lost a tough one on Sunday night. It was a valiant effort after digging themselves into a 14-0 hole to start the game. Then, they went on a roll, scoring 21 points on their next three possessions to take the lead. But in the end, the Cowboys came up just a tad bit short when they couldn’t close the deal.

The rough thing about this one was that they didn’t lose this game because they were sloppy in protecting the ball, resulting in some unfortunate giveaways. Nor did they lose because they were plagued by penalties that stalled a bunch of drives.
