Morning briefing: 19-Dec-24 - Malik Nabers chases receiving records as 2024 season winds down for Giants

Penalties have been a big talking point for the Dallas Cowboys as of late.

The Dallas Cowboys may have gotten the win this week, handling the Carolina Panthers with relative ease, but one of the more concerning trends of the last few years popped up again: penalties. The Cowboys were flagged 14 times and gave up 99 yards in penalties, though it didn’t really impact the game itself.

Still, penalties have been a common gripe in Dallas. It’s often been attributed to Mike McCarthy, mostly because the head coach spoke so often about wanting to cut down on penalties during and shortly after the 2021 season.
