Sunday Football Afterword: Giants vs Cowboys

Lance Dunbar only got five touched put gained 46 yards and played
a big role in the Cowboys' victory as a change-of-pace back.

The New York Giants defense had not allowed an opposing offense to score a touchdown in four games. Tony Romo ended that streak in New York with two touchdown passes to Jason Witten, the second of which was his 200th career touchdown pass, the most in franchise history.

The Cowboys’ defense struggled in the second half, giving up two touchdowns to let the Giants come back from a 21-6 deficit to tie the game. The first of those was particularly embarrassing when Brandon Myers fell between two defenders after catching Eli Manning’s pass, then stoop up, untouched, and ran the final few yards to the end zone.

Big D improves to 6-5 and is tied with Philadelphia for first place in the NFC East. They hold the head-to-head tiebreaker because of a 17-3 win in Philly earlier this season. They will face the Eagles again in Week 17. Dallas hosts Oakland on Thursday for Thanksgiving football.

Sunday’s loss snaps a four game winning streak and drops the G-Men to 4-7. They have lost both games against Dallas and are 1-1 against Philadelphia. Even with two games left against the Redskins, things don’t look good for the Giants

Final Score:
Dallas Cowboys – 24
New York Giants – 21
