There were few questions about the Dallas Cowboys' offense entering this season.
As long as Dak Prescott is healthy, it's going to be potent.
The defense? That was an altogether different prospect. The NFL's 28th-ranked unit in 2020 looked like the weak link of a franchise desperately hoping to return to Super Bowl glory. Dallas' young defenders apparently missed that memo.
The Cowboys prevailed, 36-28 in a showdown with the Carolina Panthers on Sunday to move both teams to 3-1. Their offense — led by 143 Ezekiel Elliott rushing yards and four Dak Prescott passing touchdowns — was dynamic, as usual.
