The Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Rams are in the midst of an NFC showdown, and it’s the Cowboys that won the first two quarters. Dallas defensive lineman Dorance Armstrong recorded a strip-sack and blocked a punt on back-to-back possessions to start the game, which directly led to the first nine points scored in the contest. The Rams weren’t too rattled, however, as Matthew Stafford hit Cooper Kupp on a 75-yard touchdown in the second quarter to keep things close.
The Rams are 3-1 vs. the Cowboys since Sean McVay took over, but these teams are trending in two different directions this season. The Cowboys have won three straight with Cooper Rush at the helm in place of the injured Dak Prescott, while the Rams are 2-2 — which is the worst record by a defending champ through four games since the 2018 Philadelphia Eagles.
Will the Cowboys continue to build on their unexpected success, or will the Rams assert their dominance and rebound after an embarrassing loss to the San Francisco 49ers? Follow along in the live blog below, as we break down this matchup as it happens.
