Win the quarterback question. That’s really the only thing the Dallas Cowboys had to do Thursday night.
Yes, beating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers would have been a chef’s kiss to start the season, worth a few dozen Jerry Jones fist-pumps and a plutonium-fueled start for the hype train. Alas, it was undone by special teams miscues that seem all too familiar, not to mention an unflagged offensive pass interference late in the fourth quarter that paid off for the Buccaneers in a 31-29 win over the Cowboys, a game that was promising for both teams, really.
