With or without Odell Beckham Jr., the Cowboys’ offensive is a force to be reckoned with. A week after scoring 40 points in Minnesota, Dallas scored touchdowns on three consecutive drives in the second half against the Giants on Thanksgiving. The Cowboys’ scoring spree led to a 28-20 win that moved them to 8-3. The Giants fell to 7-4 after losing their second straight game. <\/p>\n

Trailing 13-7 at halftime, the Cowboys took the lead for good on Dak Prescott’s 15-yard touchdown pass to Dalton Schultz midway through the third quarter. The score capped off a 14-play, 75 yard drive that saw the Cowboys enforce their will in both the run and the pass. <\/p>\n

Prescott and Schultz teamed up in the end zone again moments later after the Cowboys’ defense stopped the Giants on fourth-and-1 at New York’s own 40-yard-line. Daniel Jones, facing pressure from Donovan Wilson, threw an off-target pass to Saquon Barkley that Barkley was unable to corral from behind. <\/p>\n

The Cowboys provided the coup de grace on their next drive when Peyton Hendershot scored on a jet sweep from two yards out. CeeDee Lamb made three impressive catches on the drive, including a one-handed grab two plays before Hendershot’s score. <\/p>\n

The Giants briefly gave their fans a slight glimmer of hope when Richie James caught a short touchdown pass with eight seconds left. But the Cowboys quickly extinguished that hope when Lamb recovered the onside kick. <\/p>\n
