Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants game recap

The Cowboys opened the scoreboard with a 23-yard field goal by Brandon Aubrey at 9:43 in the first quarter. The Giants would respond with a one-yard touchdown run by Tyrone Tracy Jr. after Drew Lock completed a remarkable 28-yard run to put his team on the verge of scoring.

Lock was intercepted after throwing a pass to Devin Singletary. DeMarvion Overshown took the ball home to give the Cowboys the 10-7 lead after Brandon Aubrey secured the extra point.

New York added three points to the scoreboard thanks to a 46-yard Graham Cano kick that cut the lead to 13-10.

The Cowboys started the third quarter on a strong note, scoring a two-yard touchdown from a connection between Cooper Rush and Brandin Cooks. Rico Dowdle would find the end zone with a four-yard rushing touchdown to extend the lead to 27-20, pretty much sealing the deal for the Cowboys. The Giants would make things interesting with a Drew Lock touchdown at 2:18 in the fourth quarter.

This wasn't enough for the New Yorkers, as the Cowboys recovered the ball and after a couple of penalties and a three-yard pass to Brandin Cooks to secure the first down, the Cowboys got the 27-20 win at home to improve to 5-7 while the Giants dropped to 2-10.
