The Dallas Cowboys secured a 27-20 win over the New York Giants on Thanksgiving, breaking a six-game home losing streak. The Giants struggled offensively, with quarterback Drew Lock making his first start and finishing with 178 passing yards, an interception, and six sacks. Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown was a standout, securing two turnovers including a defensive touchdown. Rico Dowdle led the Cowboys’ rushing game with a career-high 112 yards, marking the team’s fourth 100-yard rushing game of the season. Despite several injuries on both sides, the Cowboys’ backup quarterback Cooper Rush outperformed Lock, leading the team to victory. The win ends the Cowboys’ home losing streak and provides a glimmer of hope for the team as they continue to fight for a playoff spot. The Giants, on the other hand, continue to struggle offensively and face uncertainty with injuries to key players like star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence. The revolving door at quarterback and lack of offensive production have been ongoing issues for the Giants this season. Overall, the game showcased the resilience of the Cowboys and the challenges faced by the Giants as they navigate injuries and inconsistency.
