Cowboys’ Rico Dowdle makes phenomenal juggling catch for touchdown vs. Falcons

The NFL doesn’t give style points, but Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle did a good job of implementing them on Sunday in a 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Shortly before halftime, trailing 14-3, the Cowboys drove to the edge of the Falcons’ end zone… and then chaos ensued.

Quarterback Dak Prescott took the snap from the 3-yard line and stepped back to the 20, then eluded three Falcons before throwing a pass toward Dowdle. The ball shot up as Dowdle hit the ground and then fell straight into his waiting hands. You know, just like it was recorded in the group.

It was Prescott’s only touchdown pass in Sunday’s loss. Prescott did not complete the match due to a hamstring injury. He went 18-for-24 for 133 passing yards and the TD to Dowdle before Cooper Rush took over.

The Cowboys were in desperate need of a win entering Sunday 3-4 and already buried deep in the NFC playoff race. Hampered by injuries, Dallas will face an uphill battle against future opponents.
