IRVING, Texas -- As Tim MacMahon pointed out in today’s column, the Cowboys will not be able to get away with being as conservative as they were last week if they want to beat the New York Giants this week.
Scoring touchdowns, however, has been an issue.
The Cowboys have 19 red zone possessions and have scored eight touchdowns. Their 42.1 percentage is 26th in the NFL. Green Bay is tops in the league at 76.2 percent with 16 touchdowns in 21 trips. But it’s not just a this-year problem. The Cowboys were 20th in the league in red zone percentage (25 touchdowns in 51 possessions) last year.
