The Dallas Cowboys are back at home this week and playing their final game before the bye. It is a primetime event for Dallas as they will host the Arizona Cardinals on Monday Night Football, the first of two straight Monday night games (sandwiching the bye) that the Cowboys will play.
Last week was a rough one for the Cowboys as they were dominated by the Denver Broncos. The Cardinals were on their own bye week so should be well rested. Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has a sterling record at AT&T Stadium through all levels of his football career (high school, college, and the NFL) and holds a 9-0 record. Seriously.
Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, Jake Ferguson, Brian Schottenheimer and all of the other offensive contributors will do their best to stop that from happening, though. Below you will find our story stream for the contest that will contain all relevant articles in the lead up to and aftermath of what happens.
Much was made last week about how the Cowboys were 0-7 in their previous meetings against the Broncos (they still haven’t beaten Denver since 1995). Things are sort of similar regarding Arizona. Dallas has lost seven of their last eight to the Cardinals with their lone win actually coming on a Monday night back in 2017.

The Dallas Cowboys took a beating in their Week 8 matchup with the Denver Broncos. The 44-24 drubbing erased all the good vibes that had been building around Dallas after it seemed their defense was starting to come together just a bit. Turns out that was a false dawn.
Injuries, just plain bad play, mixed in with some untimely penalties, all added up to a horrendous performance by the defense. Around the same time, Dak Prescott had one of his poorer games in a while, so the offense couldn’t keep up. Some credit has to go to the Denver defense, too.
