Cowboys defense ruins chance at momentum with major letdown at Panthers
"The Panthers kicked a 33-yard field goal as time expired to stay undefeated at home and reach .500 at 3-3 on the season with the 30-27 upset win. They denied the Cowboys reaching a 3-2-1 record on the same week they were gifted a Philadelphia Eagles loss at the New York Giants, putting Dallas at 2-3-1 and back at the bottom of the mountain when it comes to building any momentum under Brian Schottenheimer."
"The Cowboys schedule only gets harder from here, their wins against the two New York franchises are hardly anything to write home about, and the defense is all but confirmed to be a season-long Achilles heel that will take more than just the currently injured players coming back to fix. The worst realization is that the Cowboys current defense is proving themselves as bad enough to sink the entire evaluation of the personnel this season."
Dallas surrendered a late 33-yard field goal as time expired, losing 30-27 to Carolina and falling to 2-3-1. The defense failed to generate pressure or stop the run, and secondary breakdowns allowed big plays to Bryce Young. Offense produced enough to stay competitive but committed miscues that contributed to the narrow loss. Special teams and late-game execution favored the Panthers, who improved to 3-3 and remained undefeated at home. The schedule becomes more difficult, and defensive shortcomings under a third coordinator threaten roster evaluations and season momentum.
