Crunching Cowboys snap counts: Pointing the way forward for the Seahawks game

So what can you learn from the stats from a meaningless game? The Dallas Cowboys put up some gaudy passing numbers in beating the New York Giants in an amazingly exciting and interesting performance. Dak Prescott, Blake Jarwin, Cole Beasley, and Michael Gallup were the stars there. Defensively, things were more troubling. The Giants were the first team all season to score more than 30 points against Dallas, and after a couple of traditional “Eli Manning going all Eli” moments early, the veteran QB threw some very impressive passes until the futile final possession, while Saquon Barkley burnished his offensive rookie of the year résumé.
