Cowboys Lose. Wow, was this game ever gross. I wasn’t necessarily surprised that the Cowboys lost—Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs have been coming on as of late—but I was surprised they lost this way. Dak Prescott overthrew Michael Gallup on the first play of the game, and I feel like the offense never recovered. The defense did well, creating a pair of turnovers, but the team failed to capitalize. Mike has more over on StrongSide.

Mavericks Also Lose. They fell to the Clippers, after another tough fourth quarter. That’s three in a row, all three without the injured Luka Doncic, who should be back for the next one, also against the Clippers, on Tuesday.
