The Dallas Cowboys have spent the last month in California for training camp in Oxnard, with their first two preseason games nearby in Inglewood and Las Vegas, Nevada. This week, they’ll finish up training camp in Oxnard and then head back to Dallas for the rest of training camp and to host their final preseason game.
This Saturday, Cali is coming to them instead. The Los Angeles Chargers will face the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Arlington with a kickoff time of 3 p.m. local time (4 p.m. ET) to finish off their preseasons.
Cowboys vs Chargers: Who is the favorite?
The Cowboys lost their preseason opener 13-12 to the Los Angeles Rams. They failed to score a touchdown and relied solely on Brandon Aubrey’s field goals to get them points. Backup quarterback Trey Lance showed improvement in the second preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders and the Cowboys took the win, 27-12. Lance finished the game 15-of-23 for 151 yards and one passing touchdown and added 36 rushing yards and another touchdown on the ground.
The Chargers lost both of their preseason games so far, first to the Seattle Seahawks, 16-3 and then to the Los Angeles Rams, 13-9. Their offense has been an issue for a while. With quarterback Justin Herbert in a walking boot for the last two weeks, the Chargers played Easton Stick, Max Duggan, and Luis Perez. Duggan, who went 4-of-7 for 41 yards in the loss to the Seahawks, was waived on Monday. On Saturday, Stick went 8-of-13 for 85 yards, no touchdowns, and one interception, and Perez went 13-of-20 for 78 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions. Once Herbert is back with the Chargers, it will be a slightly different story, but as he’s only just back to practice this week, he’s not likely to play in the game against the Cowboys.
So Stick and Perez both will get a full half vs the Cowboys. https://t.co/XA0GxGfwb8
