It’s been a lot of the same in the first half of Dallas’s Sunday night game against the New Orleans Saints. Murray already has 86 yards on the ground and a touchdown as the Cowboys have charged out to a dominant 24-0 halftime lead.
The question for Murray has been and will continue to be his ability to stay healthy. If he does, he could be the ticket to success for this Dallas offense which so far has been a lot more efficient and a lot more successful.
Murray now has 461 yards rushing this season to go along with four touchdowns.With the Cowboys protecting such a big lead, Murray promises to get plenty of work in the second half as well.
