Sep 27, 2024, 11:22 PM ETEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.-- Getting in Thursday night's video game, the Nyc Giants as well as Dallas Cowboys shared last place in the NFC East at 1-2, an activity behind the 2-1 Washington Commanders and also Philadelphia Eagles.The Cowboys racked up two first-half goals as well as limited the Giants to three basket to lead 14-9 at the half. It was actually a protective struggle the remainder of the method, as neither crew scored a goal in the second half.Dallas got its own second succeed of the time along with an ultimate score of 20-15, yet celebrity edge rusher Micah Parsons was actually ferried off the industry behind time in the game along with a left side ankle/foot trauma. He said later that X-rays were actually damaging as well as he will definitely acquire an MRI on Friday.Giants' rookie recipient Malik Nabers also left the video game in the fourth one-fourth after going through a concussion.Here are one of the most significant factors to know coming from Thursday evening for both groups: Robert Deutsch-Imagn ImagesDallas CowboysDak Prescott performed certainly not speak to the media just before Thursday's activity against the Giants. He mentioned he would certainly talk "post succeed." The Cowboys received the gain, but it wasn't an imaginative elegance. Nevertheless, after Dallas was humiliated in back-to-back home losses to the New Orleans Saints and also Baltimore Ravens, the only factor that mattered was obtaining a succeed on a short week.Being 2-2 is actually so much better than 1-3. Possessed the Cowboys dropped, it would have noted the first time they shed 3 September games due to the fact that 2001, as well as they will possess been in final location in the NFC East.Prescott was actually sharp, specifically in the first half with goal passes to CeeDee Sheep (55 backyards) and Rico Dowdle (15 gardens). The defense eventually quit the operate and also tensed in the hole area, holding the Giants to 5 area goals.Prescott has right now won thirteen directly against the Giants. His last reduction came in 2016 as a rookie. He linked the second-longest gain streak through a quarterback versus a singular enemy since quarterback statistics were initial tracked in 1950. Tom Brady trumped the Buffalo Expenses 13 direct opportunities coming from 2003 to 2010, and also Steve Young beat the Rams thirteen right coming from 1987 to 1998. Prescott will receive an opportunity at No. 14 on Thanksgiving.Promising style: When Sheep has some sideline problems, the most ideal appears to come away from him. During the course of in 2015's reduction at San Francisco, Lamb always kept to himself on the sideline and after that adhered to with six video games along with at least 11 catches as well as seven activities along with more than one hundred gardens. In last week's loss to New Orleans, Sheep possessed a spat along with Prescott and performed not contact the media after the activity. On Tuesday, Lamb was regretful and also claimed he would be much better. In the initial half alone, he had 6 catches for 94 yards (both season highs) and a touchdown.Eye-popping stat: Brandon Aubrey has participated in 21 ready the Cowboys. He has 3 field goals of 60 yards in his occupation, including a 60-yarder in the 3rd one-fourth against the Giants. That's one off the NFL file secured through Brett Maher, who made four along with the Cowboys over two different jobs. Aubrey created a 60-yarder last week against the Ravens. He is 2-for-2 coming from 60 lawns this season. The remainder of the league is actually 0-for-2, depending on to ESPN Research.Silver lining: The Cowboys will possess 10 days to prepare yourself for the presently unbeaten Pittsburgh Steelers. The time will certainly aid since there is actually still a great deal that requires to be corrected, despite having the win. Before three activities, opposing quarterbacks have actually overlooked on merely 19 successfully pases. Versus the Saints and also Ravens, that was actually logical given that each groups were therefore leading on the operate. Giants quarterback Daniel Jones possessed too much opportunity to toss for a lot of the video game after formerly being actually tortured due to the Cowboys, that sacked him 24 times in eight activities just before Thursday. Oh, and they were imposed penalty on 9 attend the very first 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 versus the Cowboys, but they still didn't happen away along with a succeed. After final time, when the Giants were actually outscored 89-17 in their two appointments along with the Cowboys, this needs to be considered as development, right?Sure, there are no ethical victories in the NFL, however this was actually the 3rd organized intervene the appropriate path for the Giants (1-3) after a rough opener.The gap, at least to some degree, has narrowed in between the branch competitors. Dallas still owns the Giants. It has gained 14 of the past 15 matches, and Prescott has actually beaten all of them thirteen direct opportunities. The big apple still isn't fairly there yet, but this confirmed it's at the very least improving.QB failure: Jones was efficient, accomplishing 29 of 40 passes (73% finalization) for 281 backyards with an interception on a Hail Mary in the ultimate secs. Yet the Giants were kept out of completion region, as well as Jones needed on the majority of his deep tosses. It's particularly remarkable considering this was actually a problem early in training school. There was a ton of helpful for Jones, however it was not quite enough. Jones is accurately participating in much better considering that the opener. Possessing novice wide receiver Malik Nabers (12 catches for 115 backyards) undoubtedly helps.Eye-popping stat: Just before leaving behind the activity in the fourth one-fourth with a blast, Nabers maintained adding to his files. He ended up being the initial player in NFL background along with at the very least 25 celebrations and three touchdowns in his 1st four career activities when he got a 3-yard successfully pass early in the second fourth. He right now has 35 functions for 386 lawns as well as 3 goals in four games.Troubling style: Top Giants cornerback Deonte Banks has been the nearby guardian on 4 touchdown passes currently this period, according to NFL Next Gen Stats. Financial institutions was actually trumped once more on Thursday evening, this time around by Lamb for a 55-yard credit rating in the 2nd one-fourth. The Giants were actually wishing Financial institutions would certainly step into the CB1 task this time. Rather, it has been a battle so far.Biggest gap in the tactical plan: The Giants weren't capable to receive anything entering the running activity against the organization's worst run defense. Dallas came into the contest allowing 185.7 lawns on the ground every activity. The Giants entered into the activity believing they will have effectiveness but possessed merely 29 lawns rushing in the very first fifty percent-- and also they do with 26 lawns on 24 holds.-- Jordan RaananNext game: at Seat Seahawks (4:25 p.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 6).
