One interesting quirk of the 2024 Cowboys season is that the team lost every single game in which the opponent scored 27 points or more. The 2024 opponents scored 27 or more points in nine games and the Cowboys were 0-9 in those games. When the opponents scored 26 or fewer points, the Cowboys were 7-1.
| 2024 season | Cowboys record |
| 27 or more points allowed | 0-9 |
| 26 or fewer points allowed | 7-1 |
So how can the Cowboys avoid a repeat this year?
