After yet another loss to a below-average team, the Cowboys have started to lose the season heading into the bye week.

Jacoby Brissett threw for two touchdowns and ran for a score filling in again for Kyler Murray, and the Arizona Cardinals stopped a five-game losing streak with a 27-17 victory over the Dallas Cowboys.

All it took for the Arizona Cardinals to get back into the win column was a matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Cowboys didn’t score a touchdown on offense until the fourth quarter, after Arizona had taken a 17-point lead.

With the Cardinals’ defense pushed against its own end zone, the Cowboys had four opportunities to put points on the board. Dallas’ offense went for it on fourth down but turned it over on downs when Dak Prescott was sacked for a 7-yard loss.

The Dallas Cowboys entered this week a team without a streak this season. Every result was different from the last. Back and forth, up and down they went. They even threw in a tie for good measure. They hoped that would last one more week than it ultimately did.
