Cowboys fall to Vikings 28-24 as a futile running game wastes a great passing attack

The Dallas Cowboys came up short, losing to the Minnesota Vikings 28-24. It was a game that wasted absolutely brilliant performances by Dak Prescott, Amari Cooper, and Randall Cobb.

It all came down to a final drive, with Dallas trailing by four and 4:34 left on the clock. The Cowboys’ defense got one of their rare stops and they got the ball on their own 6 yard line. They then marched all the way to the Minnesota 11. But then, with their quarterback and two of his receivers absolutely on fire, they handed the ball off twice, losing three yards, and leading to an incomplete pass on fourth down that basically sealed the game.
