Week 3 vs. MIA
Date published: Sept. 23, 2019

Cowboys ended up dominating this game, but there was some real "playing with their food" about them in the first half before they got down to business and put away the Dolphins in the second half.

Dak threw a bunch of yolo-balls in the first half that should have been picked off. 

Poor officiating in this game.

Dallas offense had three 30-yard-plus passes, including one to Jason Witten on third-and-20. 

Jaylon Smith forced a Kenyan Drake fumble right before halftime; that pretty much killed any momentum MIA had; they had been playing pretty well up to that point!

"In the second half, however, Dallas outscored the Dolphins 21-0. They out-gained them 272-65 in the final 30 minutes. By the afternoon, the Cowboys had another day that graded well on both offense and defense, along with a 25-point victory that appeased even those who predicted they could handle that huge point spread."
