Derrick Barnes

The Cowboys racked up 416 total yards and 376 passing yards in Thursday night's 44-30 loss to the Lions. WR George Pickens came away with just five catches for 37 yards and 0 TDs. It was an even more disappointing outcome considering WR CeeDee Lamb missed almost the entire second half with a concussion. Pickens saw bracket coverage on most plays after Lamb exited. But he also ran a bunch of half-hearted routes and was not attacking the ball like we know he's capable of. Pickens ran a lazy slant on Dallas' first offensive snap of the second half that was broken up by CB Amik Robertson and intercepted by LB Derrick Barnes.
