Dallas Cowboys struggling at home again: What’s wrong at AT&T Stadium?
The Cowboys trailed behind the Detroit Lions at halftime, continuing their baffling home game decline
For the Dallas Cowboys, home isn’t what it used to be. Once a fortress where victories were nearly guaranteed, AT&T Stadium has become a source of growing frustration. In the past, the Cowboys ruled their home turf with an iron fist, rattling off 16 consecutive home wins across 2022 and 2023. Yet, since the dawn of 2024, something has shifted. It seems the Cowboys can’t find their rhythm in front of their fans, and today’s game against the Detroit Lions is the latest example of their downward spiral.
What’s going on in Dallas? After another brutal first half, the Cowboys trailed 27-6 at the break, adding yet another disappointing chapter to their 2024 season. Despite a brief moment of hope at the beginning of the game, it quickly turned into a familiar nightmare for the Cowboys faithful. Not only did the Lions dominate in all phases of the game, but the loss took place on a significant day-Jerry Jones’ 82nd birthday. As the owner looked on, his team continued their inexplicable struggles at home.
The Cowboys had shown promise early, marching down the field on their opening drive, but it only resulted in a field goal. This brief 3-0 lead was quickly erased as the Lions imposed their will. Detroit’s offense sparked to life with a dazzling 70-yard drive that ended with David Montgomery bruising his way into the end zone, giving the Lions a 7-3 lead. From there, it was all Detroit, with the Cowboys offense stumbling and the defense left guessing.
