The Dallas Cowboys fell 33-30 in overtime to the Arizona Cardinals, exposing three key flaws. First, the defense showed flashes—forcing a punt, a goal‑line stand, and an early interception—but couldn’t sustain pressure, yielding four straight touchdowns in the fourth quarter and a game‑winning field goal in OT.

Finally, the lingering “Cardinals curse” persisted as Dallas surrendered a 13‑point lead with under four minutes left, confirming the 2026 squad’s inability to close out games.
