In a season filled with disappointments, the Dallas Cowboys continue to struggle at home, falling to the Houston Texans with a score of 34-10 on Monday night at AT&T Stadium. This loss marks the Cowboys' sixth consecutive defeat at their home stadium, where they are now 0-5 for the first time since 1989.
The game was not without its share of drama, as even before kickoff, a piece of the stadium's retractable roof fell to the field, highlighting the ongoing issues facing the team this season. Quarterback Dak Prescott, sidelined due to a season-ending injury, could only watch as the Cowboys failed to find their footing against the Texans.
Despite some standout performances, such as CeeDee Lamb's eight catches for 93 yards, the Cowboys struggled to capitalize on key opportunities. A missed field goal attempt and a failed fake punt added to their woes, as the team found themselves trailing by more than 21 points for the sixth consecutive home game.
With a record of 3-7, the Cowboys are now five games behind the division-leading Philadelphia Eagles with seven games remaining in the season. Their upcoming matchup against the Washington Football Team poses another challenge as they look to turn their fortunes around.
As the Cowboys continue to search for answers, their struggles at home have become a defining narrative of their season. With just over two minutes of leading time in their last six home losses, the team faces an uphill battle to salvage their season and regain their winning form.
Despite the setbacks, the Cowboys remain determined to overcome their challenges and make a push for the playoffs. As they prepare for their next home game on Thanksgiving Day, the team will need to regroup and refocus in order to secure a much-needed victory.
