The Dallas Cowboys were singled out during their last defeat against the Chicago Bears with a score of 31-14.
The above after the game in week three of the 2025 NFL season on Sunday, September 21, 2025.
Those singled out during the Dallas Cowboys’ last loss to the Chicago Bears
- Trevon Diggs: has struggled mightily this season, and that continued in Week 3. After the Bears secured an incredible turnover, Chicago quickly scored on a 76-yard drive. The big play in that one was Rome Odunze going for a 35-yard touchdown, while Diggs stumbled and left the receiver completely unmarked. Diggs had to leave the game at one point, and it looks like he’s not 100 percent right now.
- Malik Hooker: You could really say everyone on the defense, but Malik Hooker seemed to have multiple plays where he was caught out of position. One example was when DJ Moore found himself wide open in the back of the end zone for a touchdown in the third quarter. Hooker was the closest defender, but never got deep enough into the end zone to prevent Moore from catching the open pass
- George Pickens: With CeeDee Lamb injured, the Cowboys needed George Pickens to step up, and it looked like that was about to happen. Shortly after Lamb’s departure, Pickens scored the first touchdown of the game for Dallas with a one-handed catch. He went quiet after that, except when he let a pass slip through his hands, right into the arms of Chicago linebacker Tremaine Edmunds. Dallas needed more from Pickens, but he didn’t deliver
- When Brian Schottenheimer named Matt Eberflus his defensive coordinator, it generated a lot of excitement. Three games into his first season with the team, and fans are wearing thin. Eberflus’ unit was destroyed by Russell Wilson and the New York Giants, and the problems continued in Week 2
- Chicago had two huge plays in the first quarter, with Rome Odunze scoring on a completely free 35-yard touchdown. What was even worse was the lack of discipline on a flea flicker play, which left Luther Burden free to score a 65-yard touchdown.
- That gave Caleb Williams a career-high 239 yards and three touchdowns at halftime. Nothing improved in the second half for Dallas, which allowed a touchdown on a 19-play, 76-yard drive. Chicago consumed 9:54 on that drive and finished it with D.J. Moore catching a touchdown pass on fourth down
- As was the case with every score, no one was near Moore when he caught the pass. Eberflus had the chance to face the team that fired him this offseason, but instead, he was crushed and will face more criticism this week.
