Dallas Cowboys trailing Atlanta Falcons after the first quarter

The Dallas Cowboys won the toss once again and would you believe it... deferred!

While the Falcons did pick up an easy first down on the first play after that the Cowboys defense went to work and forced a quick punt. Deferring is smart!

Also of note this was the first time all season that the Cowboys did not allow the opposing team to score points on their first possession.

Early on in their own drive the Cowboys were moving the ball very well. Unfortunately things did stall out a bit, but they converted a Brandon Aubrey field goal from 34 yards out for the game’s first points.
