## Resource

Dallas Cowboys stumble to a Week 1 loss against the Giants, with star wideout George Pickens taking accountability for costly drops that derailed their momentum. Despite his quiet stat line, Pickens remains focused on improvement, while coach Brian Schottenheimer still sees the talent that delivered nine TDs and over 1,400 yards last season. With a tough divisional showdown against the Commanders looming, the team is laser-focused on nailing the details — and getting that elusive first win this Sunday.
