Dallas had a 24-7 lead at Los Angeles before the Rams scored two late touchdowns to beat the Cowboys 28-24 in the first game in Los Angeles since 1994. Tony Romo didn't play, however, backups Dak Prescott and Jameill Showers were surprisingly efficient with Prescott completing 10 of 12 for 139 yards and Showers 8 of 16 for 99 yards and neither threw an interception. The backups played well on the road in front of nearly 90,000 people which is a good sign for this week as the Cowboys play their first preseason home game. The Cowboys are showing the passion to make up for their disastrous season last year and a fight between teammates almost broke out in practice on Tuesday. Dallas covered against the Rams for those who waited as the line went to plus 5 1/2 by game time. Miami beat the Giants 27-10, but offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen isn't happy with the offense overall and wants to settle on the offensive line by Week 3 of the preseason. The first team offense had no first downs in two series and coach Adam Gase said the players were "pressing." Gase said there won't be a play count for the starters in this game. Ryan Tannehill was only two of four for eight yards and Matt Moore was was 10 of 14 for 122 yards with one interception. Brandon Doughty was seven of nine for 66 yards and Zac Dysert completed one of two passes for 16 yards. The Dolphins did not have to face Eli Manning, who was kept out of the game and his backup Ryan Nassib threw two interceptions. The Dolphins and Tannehill are breaking in their third offensive system in the last four years. Play the Cowboys.
