Dallas Cowboys 2002 Season Schedule & Scores

The 2002 season was a year of unmet expectations for the Dallas Cowboys, who finished with a disappointing 5-11 record. Despite beginning the season with optimism, the team faced significant challenges both offensively and defensively. Led by quarterback Quincy Carter, the offense struggled with inconsistency and failed to produce sufficient scoring opportunities. On the defensive side, once a stronghold of the team, age began to take its toll, and they struggled to contain opposing offenses. Injuries further compounded these issues, sidelining key players for extended periods. The season's woes culminated in a heartbreaking loss to the Washington Redskins in the final game, which dashed their playoff aspirations.
