Heroes, zeros and full blitz from Giants 20-15 loss to Cowboys on Thursday:
Hero
Dak Prescott completed 22 of 27 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns.
He directed four scoring drives and took just one sack against the vaunted Giants pass rush.
Zero
Facing the worst-ranked rushing defense in the NFL, the Giants managed just 26 yards on 24 carries.
Devin Singletary rushed for 24, but the holes weren’t created by the offensive line.
Unsung Hero
Who said Ezekiel Elliott is the Cowboys’ top running back again?
Rico Dowdle had a game-high 46 rushing yards, but more importantly, he weaved around tacklers on a 15-yard touchdown catch, as officials picked up a penalty flag.
Key statistics
13: Prescott’s streak against the Giants, going without a loss since Dec. 11, 2016.
Quote
“We don’t feel good about losing.”
— Daniel Jones on the question of competing with the Cowboys (who blew them out twice last year) is encouraging.
