This game was eerily similar to the Cowboys’ humiliating 48-32 home loss to the Green Bay Packers in the Wild Card Round last season. So for those counting, Dallas has now been outscored 92-51 over their last two home games.

It was indeed a giant letdown for Dak Prescott and a Cowboys team following their blowout win against a quality Cleveland Browns group on the road one week earlier. The Saints scored a touchdown on their first six possessions and held the high-powered Dallas offense to just 19 points at Jerry World.

Things don’t get much easier in Week 3, with Lamar Jackson and a desperate 0-2 Ravens team coming to town next Sunday.

Dak Prescott & Dallas Cowboys Need To Regroup Quickly

The good news for the Cowboys is that they aren’t the only top NFC team that had a disappointing performance in Week 2. The San Francisco 49ers were stunned by the Minnesota Vikings, and Jared Goff was off all game in a shocking home loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

At 1-1, the sky is not falling in Big D. But Dak and his Cowboys need to shake this loss off and prepare for a dangerous Ravens team that will be extra motivated following a stunning Week 2 loss of their own to the Las Vegas Raiders.
