ARLINGTON, Texas -- CeeDee Lamb could only watch from the sideline in the final seconds of the best game of his career, hoping it would be enough for a 16th consecutive home victory for the Dallas Cowboys.

It was, because the Cowboys survived a 2-point conversion fest with Detroit going for the win.

Dak Prescott had two touchdown passes, the first of which was a 92-yarder to Lamb, and Dallas stopped the third 2-point try from the Lions after their first attempt was converted but negated by a penalty with 23 seconds remaining in the Cowboys' 20-19 victory Saturday night.
