The Dallas Cowboys had a chance to establish themselves as a contender coming out of Week 8, facing the Broncos in Denver. While this wasn’t the best team they’ll face all year, playing in Mile High altitude is always a challenge. But the Cowboys came up short on Sunday. Way short. And with a record of 3-4-1, their season feels like it’s starting to slip away.
There weren’t a lot of positives to take away from that game, as the offense had arguably its worst outing of the year. The defense gave up 44 points, and it somehow could have been worse.
