Week 2 · 2025–26 season
Cowboys
W 40-37 vs Giants · Sep 14, 2025
Misery Index · Uneasy
Cowboys fans won by three and somehow can't tell if B.Aubrey saved the season or exposed everything else.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Dallas survived a game it spent the final three minutes actively trying to lose, watching R.Wilson hit W.Robinson and M.Nabers for back-to-back deep touchdowns before B.Aubrey's 64-yarder forced overtime. The defense that surrendered those scores eventually got bailed out by a D.Wilson interception and a D.Prescott scramble to set up the winner. A win is a win, but a secondary this porous against a division opponent is not a Week 2 problem that fixes itself.
What fans said
“Since last week was a moral win, is this what a moral loss feels like?”
