Cowboys starting center Phil Costa was carted off the field late in the second quarter Sunday at Carolina and left the locker room on crutches.
Costa dislocated his right ankle trying to tackle Carolina linebacker Luke Kuechly, who was returning a lost fumble by Cowboys receiver Miles Austin.
Costa jerked his body from side to side, reacting to the pain on the field. With athletic trainers around Costa, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett came across the field to grab Costas hand and pat him on the chest.
After the game, Costa had a bulky brace on hiss lower right leg and a Cowboys official had to help Costa put on his dress pants in the locker room.
He subluxed his ankle, which kind of rolls it, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said of Costas injury. You think of a subluxed shoulder, in and out [of the socket]. It could be something that we look at hard, maybe a severe sprain. Its not a high ankle sprain, so Im not ruling him out at all for anything and thats about all I know about him.

Cowboys can't trust their offense, even in a win
With a 19-14 win at Carolina on Sunday, the Cowboys proved they could win a game and avoid the costly mistakes of the previous shortfall at Baltimore.

The Cowboys were able to defeat a bad 1-4 Carolina Panthers team, but barely and now the Cowboys get back to a very mediocre 3-3 record for the year. After six games, the Cowboys have an identity, which is a conservative and penalty making thirsty team. We are still a bad team, and you can definitely expect more of the same type of games. The Cowboys have absolutely proven the penalty...

Final score: Cowboys, 19–14.
So, what does this mean about your team?
Well, it is hard to say.
It may mean that they are likely exactly what they appear to be:...
