The Lions also held Arizona to 12 points. The Cowboys gave up 25 and they could've added more on their last drive, when they burned the last 5 minutes of the game.

Weird how so many folks only see one side of the ball here.
Typically thats a fair point, and I will admit the Cowboys defense didnt play to their ability. I will say however its really tough to play defense when your are constantly 3 and out on offense. Felt like the Cowboys defense was constantly on the field, im not sure the Cowboys offense even got a first down in the 3rd quarter? I'm sure they were gassed by the 4th.

The Cowboys only had a chance in this game because the defense came on late and sparked some momentum.

I bet the Lions also had a kicker who made his Field goals and XPs against the Cardinals. Where as the Cowboys have a kicker who has caused the Cowboys in several big games, by missing an early field goal. Enough blame to go around on everyone for why the Cowboys lost. The Lions blew out the Cardinals due to their ability to play a more complete game on both sides of the ball in that game.

Some Lion named Craig Reynolds rushed for 112 yards on Arizona. The Cowboys RBs rushed for 25.

Who the heck is Craig Reynolds?

So it turns out that Goff just like many other QBs, other than Dak are able to run a more successful offense with a good running game is going. The OL is struggling to run block and Kellen Moore refuses to make adjustments in the running game, to allow Zeke/Pollard to be more impactful in big games.

And yet that guy helped beat the Cardinals.
Brady and the Bucs got swept by New Orleans and put up a goose egg against them in Tampa. Dak and Dallas dominated New Orleans on the road. Brady and the Bucs got beat by the Foreskins. We beat them twice and dominated them both times. See how stupid this argument is? Can you comprehend it?

When your Oline can’t block and constantly kills drives with penalties that happens.
