On Thanksgiving, the Dallas Cowboys’ terrible defense from 2020 was again on display when they faced the Las Vegas Raiders.
As one video shows, the home team was not only bad on defense but also on offense.
One play saw Cowboys’ Tyron Smith fail to block a Raiders player, and then trying to block his teammate. Cowboys QB Dak Prescott was smashed from behind as he prepared to throw.
