The Chargers defense clearly got some inside intel from Kellen Moore and Doug Nussmeier on how to attack Dallas’ offense on Monday night. They routinely harassed quarterback Dak Prescott, sacking the Cowboys’ signal caller five times and on numerous occassions forcing the signal caller to escape danger. Prescott came through though, leading Dallas to a game-winning fourth-quarter drive where rookie kicker Brandon Aubrey nailed a short field goal for a 20-17 lead.
The defense had to come through though, and they did in a big way with back-to-back plays. First Micah Parsons rattled QB Justin Herbert with a crucial sack and then the pressure on the next play led to Stephon Gilmore’s interception. All in all, it was a good day for the Cowboys who improved to 4-2 on the young season. Here are some of the great photo captures from USA Today Images and Getty.
