The Dallas Cowboys spent the last few days insisting they planned to put last week’s humiliating loss to the Denver Broncos in the rear-view mirror. On Sunday, the Cowboys jammed on the gas and put that ugly mess so far in the rear-view that it’s not even visible just seven days later.
Dallas beat the Atlanta Falcons 43-3 — yes, really — in a game that wasn’t even that close. This was allegedly a game between two professional football teams, allegedly a game between two teams technically inside the playoff bubble at the moment, and yet Dallas treated the Falcons like a homecoming opponent.
