Dallas Cowboys Start NFL Season With Trademark Battle Against Former Player
- September 28, 2016
There was no question that Prescott knew the game plan and was prepared to play.

Cruz caught three passes on the drive and Shepard capped it with a 10-yard touchdown grab. Most weeks, that would be enough to secure a victory, but the Cowboys' offense let them down. (more...)
