The Dallas Cowboys are facing a challenging season, now compounded by quarterback Dak Prescott suffering a significant hamstring injury in their recent 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, which will sideline him for multiple weeks. With a 3-5 record, the Cowboys' playoff hopes are further diminished as backup quarterback Cooper Rush is set to take over starting duties. Adding to their struggles is a shoulder injury to wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, contributing to an already lengthy injury list. ESPN analysts Dan Orlovsky and Rex Ryan have criticized the Cowboys' performance, citing poor defense and sloppy play. The team now faces an uphill battle in a competitive NFC to salvage their season.
