Five plays that shaped the Cowboys’ embarrassing loss to the Broncos

Last year, the Cowboys played 12 games (plus some of another) without Dak Prescott and had to alternate between Andy Dalton, Garrett Gilbert, and even Ben DiNucci while constantly rotating backup offensive linemen and suffering with a terrible defense. This is to say that there were plenty of bad games last year, but Sunday’s 30-16 loss to the Broncos was easily the worst game of the Mike McCarthy era.

Dak Prescott had the worst game of his career, showing a lot of rust after not playing the last two weeks, and his talented pass catchers struggled to hold onto the ball.
