Not much went wrong for the Cowboys on Sunday, as they thrashed their division rival, the New York Giants, 49-17. The team dominated in every facet of the game, having 640 total yards of offense, converting 32 first downs, and dominating time of possession. The Cowboys offense couldn’t be stopped (well, after the first series), with many players having their breakout game of the season. WR Brandin Cooks had his best game in a Cowboys uniform, accumulating nine receptions for 173 yards and a touchdown. Cowboys fans rejoiced in an effective running game on Sunday. However, the best running of the day on either team came from backup RB Rico Dowdle.
