The Dallas Cowboys have been setting the record straight in their home games. This was the case again after defeating the Los Angeles Rams in a brutal beatdown. The offense got the job done, especially Dak Prescott who put on another phenomenal performance<\/a>, finishing with 304 passing yards. However, the defense, led by DaRon Bland, more than held up their end of the bargain.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s none other than DaRon Bland who\u2019s been filling the shoes<\/a> for the Trevon Diggs. He\u2019s the new star defender who is leading the team now with the most interceptions this year. He\u2019s now in the conversations for Defensive Player of the Year<\/a> and the season isn\u2019t even finished yet. Cowboys fans, you can have sweet dreams now, the nightmare of losing Diggs is gone.<\/p>\n

Bland reflected more about the pick-six he snagged from Matthew Stafford, \u201cI saw Cooper Kupp in the stack and he had an option route. He broke out and once he turned, I saw that ball and I said, ‘Thank you.'”<\/p>\n
