The Dallas Cowboys turned it on in the second half to defeat their NFC East-rival New York Giants, 23-16, on "Monday Night Football." Cooper Rush, getting another start for the Cowboys due to Dak Prescott’s thumb injury, was slow with his offense to start the game.
But after the Giants scored the first touchdown of the game on a Saquon Barkley 36-yard run, Rush led a charge and the Cowboys scored 17 straight points to pull away.
Dallas responded to New York’s touchdown with a rushing one of their own, as Ezekiel Elliott punched it in to make it a 13-13 game.

The drive was almost stopped on 4th-and-4, but Lamb had a catch that just got him past the first-down marker to keep it alive.
