The Andy Dalton Era started with definitive thud. The Dallas Cowboys were only really competitive in the first quarter, and that was thanks to an Arizona Cardinals offense that was out of sync. Once that passed, and the turnovers for the Cowboys began, it was a thumping that made the Cowboys look worse than they have at any point this season. In the end, they were crushed by the Cardinals, 38-10.
If it could go wrong for the Cowboys on Monday night, it did. The Cowboys defense actually managed to hold on for a brief time at the start of the game, but that was just an illusion.
