Zeke to be inactive Sunday vs. ATL

Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb are the latest franchise players in Dallas to be bitten by the injury bug, and that means the Cowboys have to shuffle and pray.

Too many mistakes cost the Cowboys dearly in their loss to the Falcons, writes @spags52. But on top of that, there were injuries added to the insult.

With every added loss comes a lowered chance of making the playoffs, and the Dallas Cowboys' third consecutive shortcoming has them in dire straits. 

Rico Dowdle led the Cowboys to their best performance on the ground this season, as Dallas averaged 6.5 yards per carry as a team in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. 

We've seen this script too many times this year, and it played out again on Sunday in Atlanta as a slow start doomed the Cowboys, whose fourth-quarter rally wasn't enough.

It's not been the glorious reunion either envisioned, and the Dallas Cowboys must now decide how to proceed with Ezekiel Elliott.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was emotional following Dallas' 27-21 loss to Atlanta and hinted at some potential moves being in the works ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline.

The injury bug has struck again, this time another cornerstone player succumbing to it, Dak Prescott suffering a hamstring injury against the Atlanta Falcons.

Plays that might get forgotten include a few times in which the Cowboys couldn't come through in short-yardage situations.

The Cowboys fall 27-21 to the Falcons but also suffer key injuries to Dak Prescott and potentially CeeDee Lamb.

It was a must-win scenario for the Dallas Cowboys, all things considered, against a red-hot team in the Atlanta Falcons who were looking to establish dominance in their division.
