While many harbored high hopes of a good game between the Dallas Cowboys and Seattle Seahawks on Thursday, no one figured on the highest-scoring prime-time game of 2023 or only the fifth game in NFL history with no punts.
Dak Prescott passed for 299 yards and three touchdowns to help the Cowboys prevail 41-35. Prime-time games had averaged a combined 40.1 points this season entering the night.
The over/under had hit the under in 76% of prime-time games this season prior to Thursday, which was the highest rate this century.
The Cowboys extended their home winning streak to 14 games. After consecutive Thursday games, Dallas won't play again until an NFC East rematch with the Philadelphia Eagles at AT&T Stadium on Dec.
