Cowboys Host the Cardinals on Sunday Still Looking for Their First Win Over Arizona at AT&T Stadium
Dallas (3-4) hosts Arizona (2-5) at noon Central Sunday on FOX, and the history is the story: the Cardinals have won four straight in the series and seven of the last eight, and the Cowboys have never beaten Arizona at AT&T Stadium — 0-4 there, with their last home win in the series back in 2006.
The Dallas Cowboys come home Sunday with a streak to break that has nothing to do with this season. Dallas hosts the Arizona Cardinals at AT&T Stadium in Arlington — kickoff at noon Central on FOX — and the Cowboys have never beaten the Cardinals in that building, going 0-4 against Arizona at AT&T Stadium with their last home win in the series in 2006, according to the DLLS Sports and Particle News previews read this cycle. Arizona has won four straight meetings and seven of the last eight between the teams.
The standings say Dallas should end it. The Cowboys are 3-4 after a 38-21 win at Philadelphia on Monday night, and a win Sunday pulls them back to .500 — and would give them only their second win streak of the Brian Schottenheimer era, per DLLS. Arizona arrives 2-5 after a 30-16 home loss to Denver, and betting previews read this cycle make Dallas a 7-point favorite with a total of 54.5 — numbers that say more about Arizona's skid (four losses in its last five) than about the series history pulling the other way.
"We got to win," quarterback Dak Prescott said of Sunday's game, per DLLS — a short answer to a long pattern. Whether it is a hex or a matchup problem, the Cowboys' path runs through taking care of the ball against a Cardinals team that keeps finding ways to win this particular game. The Sports Desk files the final from Arlington Sunday afternoon. It is held at staged under the real-entity picture rule: named teams and a named stadium require a real photograph, and none was sourced this cycle.
