The Cowboys last-second regular season win at the Chargers last year was a defining moment in their eventual NFC East winning season, narrowly avoiding an 0-2 start by beginning a six-game win streak. Saturday night’s preseason win hardly means the same, but the Cowboys still left SoFi Stadium with a lot of positives as week one rapidly approaches.
Winning 32-18 on two return touchdowns by KaVontae Turpin, the Cowboys showed off their depth at defensive line, running back, and in the secondary. How Dallas would fare at receiver and offensive line after losing multiple starters in free agency has been the question of the offseason, and these four exhibition quarters against the Chargers showed a real game plan.
