Prescott, Cowboys win ninth straight

“It was definitely a big challenge”, said, Elliott, who played his high school ball at John Burroughs.

The other, of course, is quarterback Dak Prescott, who has the Cowboys atop the National Football League after stepping in for the injured Romo.

Minnesota is the first team since Dallas in 1962 to have two 100-yard touchdowns on an interception return and kickoff return in the same game.

“You put too many guys in the box, you’ve got Dez Bryant and they’ve got good receivers that can hurt you”, Gruden said. “When they do that, things get fun”. But the Ravens have improved since the beginning of the season. They ran waggles, bootlegs, unbalanced lines and reverses.

Giants 22, Bears 16: In East Rutherford, New Jersey, Eli Manning threw a go-ahead 15-yard touchdown pass to rookie Sterling Shepard in the third quarter as NY rallied for its fifth straight win.

Dallas will face some tough tests over the next few weeks. They marched 92 and 88 yards on their first two drives of the second half to break a 10-10 tie.

This might shock a lot of you out there, but the Cowboys are now ranked 13th in total defense and fifth in scoring defense.

Prescott is now the starting quarterback for the Cowboys and will remain so for the future as well.

A tweet with a video attached showed the game being projected in a sanctuary with people inside.

“Five straight scoring drives is impressive”, Baltimore safety Eric Weddle said.

It was odd for many to see No. 9 going through pregame drills with the backups, and wearing a baseball cap along with an earpiece to follow the calls during the game.

That’s because they have playmakers.

Mike called in live from Dallas to give out his grades to the Ravens in a loss to the Cowboys.

The number of punts Dallas had after their first score.

Prescott finished 27 of 36 for 301 yards for another 300-yard game a week after his first.

But he has made sure it didn’t happen again, while putting himself in the thick if the most valuable player conversation.

For Prescott, less than a year out of college but leading his team like a seasoned pro, he treasures the relationships, not just with guys like Ezekiel Elliott and Jason Witten. Prescott became a Heisman candidate and brought Mississippi State to a New Year’s Six Bowl – the 2014 Orange Bowl. The Ravens offense possessed the ball just a little over 24 minutes.

The Ravens don’t have an Elliott on their roster, a runner who can beat you with power, speed or as a receiver out of the backfield. It’s been a long time since there’s been a good quarterback other than Tom Brady in the division- pay some respect to Chad Pennington. There is no Aqib Talib at cornerback.

Linebacker Sean Lee at times is the best defensive player the Cowboys have although that title may belong to Jones now.

New York’s front office and coaching staff knew when selecting Hackenberg in the second-round of the 2016 NFL Draft that he would need time to develop, but the decision to go with Fitzpatrick against the Patriots this weekend, surely sends a sign that they don’t believe Petty is ready to take the reins.

The Detroit Lions were involved in yet another close game but this one went their way as they beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 26-19 – their fifth win out of six despite trailing in the fourth quarter every time. It’s been that way for years now.
