After a poor exchange with center Tyler Biadasz, he lost the ball back. The Cowboys may not make it past the first round of the playoffs because of his mistakes.
The 33-year-old's first reception of the season was a 28-yarder against the Jaguars, one week after hauling in a 52-yard pass to set up a victory over the Philadelphia Eagles.
The Cowboys recorded two sacks, but didn't get enough pressure on Dobbs. The Cowboys forced a fumble and an interception to increase their NFL lead for turnovers to 32. Dobbs threw for a career-high 232 yards against the Cowboys' vaunted defensive line.
The Cowboys center was carted off in the fourth quarter with an ankle injury. Center Tyler Biadasz struggled for much of the game. Left tackle Tyler Smith moved to left guard and backup tackle Jason Peters came on to play left tackle. It may be the line the Cowboys use in the postseason.
The Cowboys played without leading rusher Tony Pollard, who was held out with deep thigh bruise. Malik Davis had a 23-yard run but, outside of that, the running game was a non factor. Ezekiel Elliott rushed for 37 yards on 19 carries; Davis finished with 39 yards on 10 carries.
The win keeps them in contention for the NFC East title. They need the Eagles to lose their final two games against New Orleans Saints and New York Giants. Dallas will now rest ahead of the season finale against the Washington Commanders.
