After blowing a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter to the Packers, the Cowboys took out their anger on the Vikings.
The Cowboys dominated the Vikings in a possible preview of the playoffs. The Cowboys looked like a Super Bowl contender and improved to 3-7.
It was dominant in every facet of the game, with Tony Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott each scoring two touchdown, and the team's seven sacks.
Praise was heaped on the backfield on social media.
Master @MasterTes✨ Watch more top videos, highlights, and B/R original contentBeautiful drive. Beautiful half. Love when the Cowboys dominate the trenches.
Marcus Mosher @Marcus_MosherMasterful first half by the #Cowboys offense.
Dez Bryant @DezBryantI love this formula for the Dallas cowboys… now this is a team that’s hard to beat… let’s stay the course for the rest of the game!
Michael Gehlken @GehlkenNFLCowboys RB Tony Pollard doing what he does. Another explosive play, this one a 30-yard catch-and-run touchdown from the right flat. He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in March. Cost is climbing.
Patrik [No C] Walker @VoiceOfTheStarOh man how I love the way the #Cowboys mixed Zeke with Pollard on that drive. That was provocative. It gets the people GOING.
RJ Ochoa @rjochoaThe Cowboys had a horrible loss last week and have responded the way elite teams do.
Total domination. https://t.co/aafhluIOMd
Cameron Magruder @ScooterMagruderTONY POLLARD IS A GROWN MAN.
Ben DiNucci @B_DiNucci6I don’t think people realize how good Tony Pollard is
Field Yates @FieldYatesTony Pollard is absolutely filthy.
Give him the ball always.
Calvin Watkins @calvinwatkinsZeke Elliott with two short rushing touchdowns and Tony Pollard with two receiving touchdowns. Everybody should be happy.
✭Cowboys News✭ @DemBoyz_NewsNow this is how you use Zeke and Pollard
Marcus Mosher @Marcus_MosherAgain. There is Zeke's value.
David Helman @davidhelman_Wonderful drive. Dak is dealing, Tony P. is fun as hell. Zeke is reliable in short yardage.
no notes tbh.
It was obvious from the beginning that this game was going to be decided by one team. During the first half, the Cowboys scored on all five of their possessions, including a strip-sack from Parsons and a 60-yard field goal from the other team's kicker.
Dez Bryant @DezBryantMicah parsons is unbelievable!! Other cowboy players get on his level!!!
Pat McAfee @PatMcAfeeShowMicah Parsons is an absolute PROBLEM
The half time didn't help cool off the visitors.
The running back who sprinted past Minnesota's defense on a screen-pass touchdown earlier in the game did the rest for a 68-yard score after the quarterback dropped a perfect pass into Pollard's hands.
Pollard is more dangerous in the open field andElliott is reliable in short-yardage situations. It made life easier for the entire offense, and the Vikings had to be a one-dimensional team.
The Cowboys will play the New York Giants in a big game on Thanksgiving.
