Cowboys’ Late Collapse Puts Defensive Accountability on the Clock

Dallas reportedly blew a 14-point fourth-quarter lead to Arizona, capped by backup Gardner Minshew’s eight-play, 80-yard tying drive. The loss reportedly snapped a 202-0-1 home record when leading by 14 or more in the fourth, while the defense has allowed 20-plus points in 15 straight games.

One source has no publication date, so timing remains uncertain.
