From week to week, the Cowboys have found a multitude of ways to lose football games. But on the game’s biggest stage Thursday afternoon, the team would make sure to have a little of everything for fans to pile on their plate.
The Cowboys Thanksgiving defeat to the Carolina Panthers was, in many ways, the epitome of the season. There was a long list of usual suspects that have been plaguing the team all season long.

Carolina's star linebacker, Luke Kuechly would repeat the feat late in the second half when he was able to jump in front of Terrance Williams and run it back for the score. To the Panthers credit, the spacing of their back seven was outstanding. They did a great job creating the illusion that receivers were open, but reacted so quickly to the where Romo was throwing the ball.
