It was the best part of the first half and the worst part of the second one. The Dallas Cowboys were able to put away the New York Giants thanks to the good half.

The Cowboys overcame a pair of first-half turnovers to beat the Giants 28-20 in a key game for the division title.

On the day, he was 21-of-31 for 261 yards. The two running backs added rushing scores as well.

The Cowboys are alone in second place in the division behind the Eagles, while the Giants are third.

The second half was the reason for it.

RJ Ochoa @rjochoa

It has not been perfect by any means but this has been an impressive bounce-back quarter from the Dallas Cowboys, especially Dak Prescott.

Patrik [No C] Walker @VoiceOfTheStar

Dak again under pressure and again it doesn't matter because he's dotting the field like the turf has freckles

Cuz Lightyear @NYencee

Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb are so weird in the sense that one second they can look so lost and then in a split second can look other worldly

The Cowboys went into the half trailing 13-7 due to the fact that they missed a number of throws and had two picks thrown at them. He has six turnovers in six games this season.

For most of the season, the recipe for success for the Cowboys has been the defense and the run game. The Cowboys ran for 169 yards on Thanksgiving.

This team has a chance to win the Super Bowl because of their ability to make plays through the air, and because they are a different team than the one that played well with Cooper Rush at quarterback.

The ceiling of this team will be determined by the quarterback. It was obvious in the first half and the second half.
