Sep 27, 2024, 11:22 PM ETEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.-- Getting in Thursday evening's video game, the Nyc Giants as well as Dallas Cowboys discussed last spot in the NFC East at 1-2, a game behind the 2-1 Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles.The Cowboys racked up two first-half touchdowns and also restricted the Giants to three field goals to lead 14-9 at the half. It was a defensive fight the rest of the way, as neither group racked up a touchdown in the 2nd half.Dallas got its second gain of the time along with an ultimate score of 20-15, but star edge rusher Micah Parsons was actually hauled off the area late in the video game with a left side ankle/foot injury. He stated subsequently that X-rays were unfavorable and he will definitely get an MRI on Friday.Giants' rookie receiver Malik Nabers also left the activity in the 4th one-fourth after experiencing a concussion.Here are actually one of the most vital points to recognize from Thursday evening for each teams: Robert Deutsch-Imagn ImagesDallas CowboysDak Prescott carried out certainly not talk to the media before Thursday's activity against the Giants. He stated he will communicate "blog post win." The Cowboys received the succeed, yet it had not been an artistic charm. Nevertheless, after Dallas was actually shamed in back-to-back home reductions to the New Orleans Saints and Baltimore Ravens, the only factor that mattered was actually obtaining a succeed on a quick week.Being 2-2 is actually so much far better than 1-3. Had the Cowboys shed, it will have noted the very first time they shed 3 September games given that 2001, as well as they will possess remained in last spot in the NFC East.Prescott was sharp, especially in the very first fifty percent along with goal exchanges CeeDee Sheep (55 lawns) as well as Rico Dowdle (15 backyards). The defense lastly quit the run and stabilized at a loss zone, keeping the Giants to 5 field goals.Prescott has actually right now won 13 right against the Giants. His final loss can be found in 2016 as a rookie. He tied the second-longest win streak by a quarterback versus a singular enemy because quarterback statistics were 1st tracked in 1950. Tom Brady beat the Buffalo grass Expenses thirteen straight times from 2003 to 2010, as well as Steve Youthful trumped the Rams thirteen straight coming from 1987 to 1998. Prescott is going to get a chance at No. 14 on Thanksgiving.Promising pattern: When Sheep possesses some subsidiary concerns, the most effective seems to follow away from him. During in 2014's loss at San Francisco, Sheep maintained to themself on the subsidiary and then followed with 6 video games with a minimum of 11 catches and seven games along with much more than one hundred gardens. In recently's loss to New Orleans, Lamb possessed a spat with Prescott as well as did certainly not speak with the media after the game. On Tuesday, Lamb was actually regretful and claimed he would certainly be actually a lot better. In the first one-half alone, he possessed six catches for 94 yards (both season highs) and also a touchdown.Eye-popping stat: Brandon Aubrey has actually participated in 21 ready the Cowboys. He has three basket of 60 gardens in his profession, featuring a 60-yarder in the third one-fourth against the Giants. That's one off the NFL file secured through Brett Maher, who produced four with the Cowboys over two various jobs. Aubrey produced a 60-yarder recently versus the Ravens. He is actually 2-for-2 coming from 60 gardens this season. The rest of the game is actually 0-for-2, depending on to ESPN Research.Silver cellular lining: The Cowboys will definitely have 10 times to prepare yourself for the presently undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers. The amount of time will definitely aid due to the fact that there is still a lot that needs to have to become repaired, even with the win. Before 3 games, resisting quarterbacks have actually overlooked on simply 19 passes. Versus the Saints and Ravens, that was easy to understand due to the fact that each crews were actually so prevalent on the run. Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had excessive opportunity to toss for much of the activity after recently being actually tortured by the Cowboys, that sacked him 24 times in 8 video games just before Thursday. Oh, and also they were actually punished nine attend the 1st one-half alone.-- Todd ArcherNext activity: at Pittsburgh Steelers (8:20 p.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 6.) Luke Hales/Getty ImagesNew York GiantsThe Giants maintained it close versus the Cowboys, but they still really did not come away with a succeed. After final period, when the Giants were actually outscored 89-17 in their two appointments along with the Cowboys, this needs to be considered as progression, right?Sure, there are actually no ethical triumphes in the NFL, but this was actually the third straight intervene the best path for the Giants (1-3) after a rough opener.The gap, a minimum of relatively, has limited in between the department competitors. Dallas still has the Giants. It has actually won 14 of the past 15 matchups, and Prescott has actually beaten all of them thirteen straight times. New york city still isn't quite certainly there as yet, yet this confirmed it's at minimum improving.QB breakdown: Jones was reliable, finishing 29 of 40 successfully pases (73% fulfillment) for 281 lawns along with an interception on a Hail storm Mary in the last secs. Yet the Giants were actually stayed out of the end area, and Jones was short on a lot of his centered tosses. It's especially remarkable considering this was actually an issue early in training camp. There was actually a bunch of helpful for Jones, but it was actually not quite sufficient. Jones is clearly participating in much better considering that the opener. Having novice pass receiver Malik Nabers (12 catches for 115 gardens) undoubtedly helps.Eye-popping stat: Just before leaving the game in the 4th one-fourth along with a concussion, Nabers kept including in his files. He came to be the initial gamer in NFL past history with at the very least 25 receptions and three touchdowns in his first 4 career activities when he caught a 3-yard elapsed early in the second fourth. He currently has 35 receptions for 386 backyards and three goals in four games.Troubling style: Leading Giants cornerback Deonte Banks has actually been the nearest guardian on 4 touchdown passes currently this season, according to NFL Next Gen Statistics. Financial institutions was actually trumped once again on Thursday night, this time by Sheep for a 55-yard score in the second one-fourth. The Giants were really hoping Banks would certainly step into the CB1 task this season. Instead, it has actually been actually a problem therefore far.Biggest hole in the strategy: The Giants weren't capable to get just about anything using the running activity against the game's worst run self defense. Dallas came into the competition making it possible for 185.7 lawns on the ground every game. The Giants entered the game presuming they will possess excellence however possessed only 29 yards rushing in the first one-half-- as well as they finished with 26 gardens on 24 brings.-- Jordan RaananNext activity: at Seattle Seahawks (4:25 p.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 6).
