Football can be a really dumb, fun sport, and there’s no better example of that than the Cowboys’ 40-39 win over the Falcons. Whether it was the Cowboys offense fumbling it four times in the first quarter, the two different punt fakes that failed for Dallas, or Dak Prescott leading the team to score 16 points in just five minutes, this game flew in the face of anyone who thought they knew what to expect.
But Dallas won the game, avoided starting the season 0-2, and survived the wrath of fans everywhere.
