Story summary

On November 1, 2026, the Arizona Cardinals defeated the Dallas Cowboys 33-30 in overtime at AT&T Stadium. The Cardinals faced an early deficit but rallied with quarterback Gardner Minshew taking over for Jacoby Brissett late in the third quarter. Tyler Allgeier's touchdown runs, including a career-long 63-yarder, kept Arizona competitive. With six seconds left in regulation and a chance to win, kicker Chad Ryland missed the extra point after scoring a field goal, sending the game into overtime. In OT, Ryland successfully kicked the decisive 42-yard field goal for the victory. The loss was particularly tough on the Cowboys, who led by two touchdowns early in the fourth quarter but struggled defensively late. Owner Jerry Jones called it "an indictment of the whole show," highlighting his frustration with Dallas's performance despite leading for most of the game.
