After dominating the Minnesota Vikings in week eleven, the Dallas Cowboys again made another statement in their 28-20 NFC East division victory over the New York Giants to improve to 8-3 on the year. Micah Parsons did a tremendous job leading the defense, while CeeDee Lamb had a star-studded performance with many highlight-reel plays.

The halftime show was very entertaining for Thanksgiving at “Jerry World,” as the Jonas Brothers took the stage and performed multiple hit songs, including “Sucker” and “Only Human.”
Second-year linebacker Micah Parsons made history in this holiday game as he became the first Cowboy to attain six multi-sack games in the first eleven games of a season. Parsons ended the contest with two sacks, two tackles for loss, and two quarterback hits.
Something tells us @MicahhParsons11 is gonna be eating GOOD after this game! 🦁🍽

Joining Parsons in the sack department was defensive lineman Dorance Armstrong who had a sack and two quarterback hits in the game.
On the offensive side of the ball for Dallas, wideout CeeDee Lamb had arguably the most impressive game of his young career as he snagged six passes for 106 yards. In the running game, Ezekiel Elliott ran sixteen times for 92 yards and a touchdown, while fellow tailback Tony Pollard ran eighteen times for 60 yards.
Someone essential in this win for the Cowboys was tight end Dalton Schultz, who had four catches for 31 yards and two touchdowns on the day. Both touchdowns caught by Schultz were thrown by Dak Prescott, who finished the divisional battle with 261 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions.
As for the Giants, rookie pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux was very impressive against a solid Cowboys offensive line, finishing the loss with five quarterback hits.
With that said, the Cowboys picked up a huge division win in a tight race where they sit right behind the Eagles and right ahead of the Giants due to this big win on Thanksgiving.
The Cowboys will look to keep things rolling on Sunday Night Football as they host the Colts; and the Giants will look to stop their losing streak in a home division game against the Commanders next Sunday.
