Sep 27, 2024, 11:22 PM ETEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.-- Getting into Thursday evening's activity, the New york city Giants as well as Dallas Cowboys discussed last location in the NFC East at 1-2, a video game behind the 2-1 Washington Commanders and also Philadelphia Eagles.The Cowboys racked up pair of first-half touchdowns and also confined the Giants to 3 field goals to lead 14-9 at the fifty percent. It was a defensive fight the remainder of the way, as neither crew scored a goal in the 2nd half.Dallas picked up its own second succeed of the time with an ultimate credit rating of 20-15, however star side rusher Micah Parsons was ferried off the industry behind time in the game along with a nigh side ankle/foot personal injury. He said subsequently that X-rays were actually adverse as well as he will definitely obtain an MRI on Friday.Giants' rookie recipient Malik Nabers additionally left the game in the 4th one-fourth after suffering a concussion.Here are one of the most necessary factors to understand from Thursday evening for both teams: Robert Deutsch-Imagn ImagesDallas CowboysDak Prescott performed certainly not speak to the media before Thursday's game versus the Giants. He claimed he will speak "article win." The Cowboys obtained the gain, however it had not been an imaginative appeal. Nevertheless, after Dallas was actually embarrassed in back-to-back home losses to the New Orleans Saints as well as Baltimore Ravens, the only point that mattered was getting a win on a short week.Being 2-2 is actually so much far better than 1-3. Had the Cowboys lost, it would certainly possess noted the first time they shed 3 September activities due to the fact that 2001, and they would certainly possess been in final area in the NFC East.Prescott was actually alert, particularly in the initial half along with goal passes to CeeDee Lamb (55 lawns) as well as Rico Dowdle (15 gardens). The self defense finally quit the operate as well as stabilized in the hole zone, keeping the Giants to 5 field goals.Prescott has currently gained thirteen straight versus the Giants. His last loss came in 2016 as a rookie. He tied the second-longest win streak by a quarterback versus a single challenger since quarterback statistics were 1st tracked in 1950. Tom Brady defeated the Buffalo Expenses 13 straight times coming from 2003 to 2010, and also Steve Young beat the Rams thirteen right from 1987 to 1998. Prescott will definitely acquire a possibility at No. 14 on Thanksgiving.Promising pattern: When Lamb has some subsidiary concerns, the best appears to find away from him. During the course of in 2015's reduction at San Francisco, Lamb kept to themself on the subsidiary and afterwards followed along with 6 activities with a minimum of 11 catches as well as seven games along with greater than 100 lawns. In recently's loss to New Orleans, Sheep had an altercation with Prescott as well as carried out certainly not talk to the media after the activity. On Tuesday, Sheep was apologetic as well as claimed he would be actually better. In the first fifty percent alone, he possessed 6 catches for 94 lawns (both period highs) as well as a touchdown.Eye-popping stat: Brandon Aubrey has actually played 21 ready the Cowboys. He has three basket of 60 yards in his career, featuring a 60-yarder in the 3rd one-fourth versus the Giants. That's one off the NFL record secured through Brett Maher, who made 4 along with the Cowboys over pair of different assignments. Aubrey created a 60-yarder recently versus the Ravens. He is 2-for-2 coming from 60 lawns this time. The rest of the league is actually 0-for-2, depending on to ESPN Research.Silver cellular lining: The Cowboys will definitely possess 10 days to prepare yourself for the currently undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers. The amount of time is going to assist due to the fact that there is actually still a lot that needs to have to become remedied, even with the gain. In the past three video games, opposing quarterbacks have missed on merely 19 passes. Against the Saints and Ravens, that was logical due to the fact that each crews were actually therefore prevalent on the run. Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had a lot of opportunity to throw for a lot of the game after previously being actually agonized by the Cowboys, that sacked him 24 attend 8 video games before Thursday. Oh, as well as they were penalized 9 attend the very first half alone.-- Todd ArcherNext video game: at Pittsburgh Steelers (8:20 p.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 6.) Luke Hales/Getty ImagesNew York GiantsThe Giants kept it close versus the Cowboys, but they still really did not happen away along with a succeed. After last season, when the Giants were actually outscored 89-17 in their two conferences with the Cowboys, this has to be deemed progression, right?Sure, there are no moral triumphes in the NFL, however this was actually the third organized step in the correct instructions for the Giants (1-3) after a rough opener.The space, at least relatively, has actually limited between the branch opponents. Dallas still owns the Giants. It has won 14 of recent 15 matches, and also Prescott has actually trumped them thirteen direct times. Nyc still isn't rather there certainly as yet, yet this confirmed it goes to least improving.QB break down: Jones was efficient, finishing 29 of 40 elapseds (73% completion) for 281 yards along with an interception on a Hailstorm Mary in the final secs. Yet the Giants were actually kept out of the end zone, as well as Jones was short on most of his deep throws. It's specifically noteworthy considering this was actually a problem early in training school. There was a considerable amount of suitable for Jones, but it was actually not quite sufficient. Jones is plainly participating in much better given that the opener. Having novice pass receiver Malik Nabers (12 catches for 115 yards) undoubtedly helps.Eye-popping stat: Just before leaving behind the game in the fourth one-fourth along with a blast, Nabers maintained contributing to his records. He came to be the 1st player in NFL record along with a minimum of 25 receptions and also three touchdowns in his initial 4 occupation games when he got a 3-yard successfully pass early in the second one-fourth. He now possesses 35 celebrations for 386 yards and also 3 touchdowns in 4 games.Troubling fad: Top Giants cornerback Deonte Banks has actually been the nearest protector on 4 goal passes already this season, depending on to NFL Next Gen Statistics. Banking companies was actually defeated again on Thursday evening, this moment by Sheep for a 55-yard credit rating in the 2nd quarter. The Giants were really hoping Banks would certainly step into the CB1 part this time. As an alternative, it has actually been a battle thus far.Biggest gap in the strategic plan: The Giants weren't capable to get everything entering the operating game against the game's worst operate self defense. Dallas entered into the competition making it possible for 185.7 yards on the ground per activity. The Giants entered into the video game thinking they would possess success yet had only 29 lawns rushing in the initial one-half-- and also they finished with 26 backyards on 24 brings.-- Jordan RaananNext activity: at Seattle Seahawks (4:25 p.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 6).
