The Dallas Cowboys had a tough Week One draw in the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. It’s a Panthers’ defense that was tailor-made to stop the Cowboys from what they do best, which is running the football. And the fact it was Joe Looney at center instead of four-time Pro Bowler Travis Frederick at center and a rookie at left guard in Connor Williams, only made things worse for Dallas’ rushing attack.
Therefore, the Cowboys turned to third-year quarterback Dak Prescott to try and win them the game. Unfortunately, Prescott was not up to the task, completing 19 of his 29 passes for only 170 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions.
