The Dallas Cowboys are facing scrutiny for their lackluster performance on the road this season, which stands in stark contrast to their dominant home games. Analysts and commentators have pointed out the team's significant drop in points scored, averaging 18 fewer points, and turnover differential, being -2 on the road compared to +10 at home, when playing away. Jimmy Johnson, a notable football figure, has offered his thoughts on the matter, highlighting the issue's complexity. In a particularly telling example, the Cowboys failed to score despite a promising drive that included four conversions and reaching the one-yard line, underscoring the team's struggles in away games. This pattern of underperformance is concerning for the Cowboys, especially as they approach a postseason that will include only road playoff games.
The Cowboys underperformance on the road this season is really just stunning, considering how unstoppable they've been at home. And not a good sign with only road playoff games coming up. https://t.co/x9YvQTE4rH
And that is a perfect example of the difference between the #Cowboys at home versus the version of them that shows up on the road. Those types of mistakes. Coming up with no points after a drive like that, with FOUR conversions, on the one-yard line ... is absolutely brutal.

I mean… if one play could define Dallas on the road this season.. that’s it. They average 18 fewer points on the road this season than at home.. and are now -2 in turnover differential on the road as opposed to +10 at home
