Coming off an encouraging 44-22 victory over the rival Washington Commanders in Week 7, the Dallas Cowboys came into their Week 8 matchup with the Denver Broncos with a chance to get over the .500 mark for the first time all season. But as every fan of America's Team knows, they failed miserably in that attempt, taking an embarrassing 44-24 beating that marked their worst defeat of the season.
Not only was the 22-point margin of defeat the biggest of the season thus far, but the 44 points scored by the Broncos marked the most allowed by the dreadful Dallas defense during this up-and-down campaign.
