## Resource

Dallas Cowboys defense gets off to a brutal start, ranked among NFL’s biggest concerns after a 28-20 loss to the Giants — plagued by coverage woes, easy completions, and low defensive success rate. New DC Christian Parker, just 34 and youngest in franchise history, faces mounting pressure despite offseason upgrades like Von Miller and Rashan Gary. Giants dominated with nearly 400 yards, 30 first downs, and controlled the clock — outplaying and out-physicaled Dallas. Key injuries hit hard: Malik Hooker out, DeMarvion Overshown sidelined, rookie stepping in. Coach and players stand behind Parker, saying fixes are close — they must rally fast for their next divisional clash against Washington.
