The Dallas Cowboys, a team riding on the momentum of a dominating start to the season, experienced an unexpected stumble on their journey, falling 28-16 to the Arizona Cardinals. This unexpected defeat sent shockwaves through the Cowboys‘ fanbase, none more vocal than renowned sports commentator, Skip Bayless.
Bayless, a longstanding supporter of the Cowboys, was quick to express his disbelief over the turn of events on social media. Taking to Twitter, he captioned his post, “I am speechless,” accompanying it with a 26-second video.
The Cowboys were heavily favored
The Cowboys entered the game with the Cardinals on a high note, having previously secured commanding victories against the New York Jets and New York Giants. The cumulative score of 70-10 from these matches set high expectations for the team’s performance in Arizona. However, the week took a downturn with the revelation of star cornerback Trevon Diggs suffering a season-ending ACL tear during practice.
This significant blow, coupled with the absence of three key offensive line starters, undeniably contributed to the unexpected result. Despite these setbacks, the spotlight was firmly on quarterback Dak Prescott. Delivering a mixed performance, Prescott completed 25 of 40 passes, accumulating 249 yards and a touchdown. However, a crucial late-game interception sealed the Cowboys‘ fate, extinguishing hopes of a potential comeback.
The air of disappointment hung heavily amongst the Cowboys‘ supporters, yet the anticipation for redemption remains high. The upcoming home game against the New England Patriots presents an opportunity for the Cowboys to regain their footing and elevate their season record to 3-1.
