The Dallas Cowboys have never won a game against the Arizona Cardinals inside AT&T Stadium. With their Week 8 loss, they fell to 0-5 in such contests. The 33-30 overtime defeat was undoubtedly the most disappointing result of the bunch.
In fact, former Cowboys quarterback Ben DiNucci chalked it up as an "embarrassing" loss. Despite holding a 10-point lead with 3:54 to play in regulation, the Cowboys lost for the third time in the last four weeks. They led by as many as 14 points in the fourth quarter and for the first time this century lost a home game with that kind of late advantage.
They had won each of their last 69 such games. It was as disheartening of a showing as any across the NFL. "This was absolutely embarrassing today," DiNucci said on CBS Sports HQ.
I'm lost for words, honestly. They have so much talent on both sides of the ball, and year after year, week after week, all we see is just letdowns from them. I'm not sure what needs to change. … But at some point, the same old, same old in Dallas for the Cowboys, it's not cutting it.
Something needs to change. Somebody needs to look themselves in the mirror. I don't know who it is, but that was an embarrassing loss for them." Dallas was fortunate to even have a second chance at winning the game in overtime, because if not for a missed extra point on the Cardinals' final touchdown, they would have almost certainly lost in regulation.
Adding insult to injury, Arizona sparked its comeback with a backup quarterback. Gardner Minshew entered in relief of Jacoby Brissett and instantly elevated the offense with some help from running back Tyler Allgeier. What's more, the Cardinals may be destined to finish the year in last place in the NFC West.
