'We've got to do better': Cowboys' red zone struggles continue in loss to Cardinals

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- In a 30-10 Week 2 win against the New York Jets, the Dallas Cowboys went 2-of-6 in the red zone offensively. It was a footnote in an otherwise dominant performance.

One of the major reasons the Cowboys lost to the Arizona Cardinals 28-16 on Sunday was their defensive effort. The run defense was obliterated (222 yards) and the Cardinals were able to hang plays of 69, 45, 44, 26, 23 and 20 yards on a defense that had given up points in just one of their first eight quarters.
