Sep 27, 2024, 11:22 PM ETEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.-- Entering Thursday evening's activity, the New york city Giants and also Dallas Cowboys shared last location in the NFC East at 1-2, a video game behind the 2-1 Washington Commanders and Philly Eagles.The Cowboys racked up two first-half touchdowns as well as confined the Giants to 3 basket to lead 14-9 at the half. It was a protective fight the remainder of the way, as neither group racked up a goal in the second half.Dallas grabbed its own second gain of the time along with an ultimate credit rating of 20-15, but celebrity side rusher Micah Parsons was actually hauled off the industry late in the activity along with a left side ankle/foot accident. He said afterward that X-rays were actually adverse as well as he will certainly get an MRI on Friday.Giants' newbie recipient Malik Nabers additionally exited the game in the fourth one-fourth after experiencing a concussion.Here are the best important points to know from Thursday night for both teams: Robert Deutsch-Imagn ImagesDallas CowboysDak Prescott carried out not talk to the media prior to Thursday's game against the Giants. He claimed he would certainly communicate "article succeed." The Cowboys obtained the succeed, but it had not been a creative beauty. Nonetheless, after Dallas was actually embarrassed in next home losses to the New Orleans Saints and also Baltimore Ravens, the only point that mattered was actually obtaining a win on a brief week.Being 2-2 is actually so much better than 1-3. Had the Cowboys lost, it would certainly have denoted the very first time they shed 3 September video games due to the fact that 2001, as well as they would have resided in final location in the NFC East.Prescott was sharp, specifically in the 1st fifty percent with touchdown exchanges CeeDee Lamb (55 yards) as well as Rico Dowdle (15 lawns). The protection eventually ceased the run as well as tensed in the red region, storing the Giants to 5 area goals.Prescott has currently gained 13 right against the Giants. His final loss was available in 2016 as a novice. He linked the second-longest gain streak through a quarterback against a single rival due to the fact that quarterback stats were actually very first tracked in 1950. Tom Brady trumped the Buffalo grass Costs 13 direct times from 2003 to 2010, and also Steve Young defeated the Rams 13 straight from 1987 to 1998. Prescott will get a possibility at No. 14 on Thanksgiving.Promising trend: When Lamb has some subsidiary problems, the most ideal appears to come out of him. Throughout last year's loss at San Francisco, Sheep kept to themself on the sideline and afterwards observed with six video games along with a minimum of 11 catches and also seven video games with much more than one hundred yards. In recently's loss to New Orleans, Sheep had a squabble along with Prescott and also carried out certainly not contact the media after the game. On Tuesday, Lamb was actually apologetic as well as said he would certainly be actually much better. In the initial half alone, he had 6 catches for 94 gardens (both period highs) and a touchdown.Eye-popping stat: Brandon Aubrey has played 21 games for the Cowboys. He possesses three basket of 60 lawns in his job, consisting of a 60-yarder in the 3rd quarter against the Giants. That's one off the NFL file held through Brett Maher, that helped make 4 along with the Cowboys over pair of different assignments. Aubrey helped make a 60-yarder recently against the Ravens. He is actually 2-for-2 coming from 60 gardens this season. The rest of the organization is actually 0-for-2, according to ESPN Research.Silver lining: The Cowboys will possess 10 times to prepare for the presently unbeaten Pittsburgh Steelers. The moment will aid due to the fact that there is still a whole lot that requires to be corrected, even with the gain. Over the last three games, resisting quarterbacks have missed on merely 19 elapseds. Against the Saints as well as Ravens, that was actually understandable given that each groups were therefore leading on the operate. Giants quarterback Daniel Jones possessed excessive opportunity to toss for a lot of the activity after earlier being actually tormented by the Cowboys, who sacked him 24 times in 8 video games before Thursday. Oh, and they were actually imposed penalty on nine attend the very first one-half alone.-- Todd ArcherNext game: at Pittsburgh Steelers (8:20 p.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 6.) Luke Hales/Getty ImagesNew York GiantsThe Giants maintained it close against the Cowboys, however they still failed to happen away along with a gain. After final time, when the Giants were outscored 89-17 in their pair of meetings along with the Cowboys, this must be viewed as progression, right?Sure, there are actually no ethical victories in the NFL, however this was the 3rd organized action in the right direction for the Giants (1-3) after an ugly opener.The gap, at least to some extent, has tightened in between the branch rivals. Dallas still possesses the Giants. It has actually won 14 of the past 15 matches, and Prescott has defeated them 13 straight times. New York still isn't fairly certainly there as yet, but this proved it's at the very least improving.QB breakdown: Jones was efficient, completing 29 of 40 passes (73% completion) for 281 lawns with an interception on a Hailstorm Mary in the last secs. Yet the Giants were shut out of completion area, as well as Jones was short on a lot of his centered tosses. It's particularly notable considering this was actually a complication early in training school. There was a great deal of helpful for Jones, yet it was not quite sufficient. Jones is actually clearly playing far better considering that the opener. Having novice wide receiver Malik Nabers (12 catches for 115 backyards) undoubtedly helps.Eye-popping stat: Before leaving the video game in the 4th quarter along with a blast, Nabers maintained adding to his records. He ended up being the initial gamer in NFL past history with a minimum of 25 receptions and also 3 goals in his very first 4 occupation activities when he found a 3-yard successfully pass early in the 2nd fourth. He currently has 35 receptions for 386 gardens as well as three touchdowns in four games.Troubling style: Leading Giants cornerback Deonte Banks has actually been the closest guardian on 4 goal passes actually this time, according to NFL Next Gen Stats. Banking companies was actually trumped once again on Thursday night, this time by Lamb for a 55-yard rating in the 2nd fourth. The Giants were hoping Banking companies would certainly enter the CB1 function this season. Instead, it has been actually a struggle so far.Biggest opening in the strategic plan: The Giants weren't able to get just about anything using the managing video game versus the league's worst operate protection. Dallas entered the contest allowing 185.7 backyards on the ground every activity. The Giants entered the game believing they will possess results yet possessed just 29 yards entering the 1st one-half-- and they do with 26 yards on 24 holds.-- Jordan RaananNext game: at Seat Seahawks (4:25 p.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 6).
