Cowboys’ streak at a record nine
The Dallas Cowboys continued their historic run throw the 2016 season with a 27-17 victory against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
Eli Manning threw for 227 yards and two touchdowns as the Giants recorded their fifth straight win, though it was far from straightforward as Chicago led 16-9 at the break.
New England kept pace with the Cowboys in the fight for the NFL’s rest record, improving to 8-2 with a 30-17 triumph at San Francisco in Brady’s first game in the region where he grew up. “Teams are going to come out, they’re going to try to stop the run, they’re going to stack the box but we’re a physical group of guys, we talk about this all the time and we wear guys down”.
But the significance of where they now stand isn’t lost on the Cowboys, especially their quarterback.
“We’ve got to keep going”, Bryant said.
Eventually defenses will start trying to pay more attention to Prescott and the passing game.
For now, Prescott has more than exceeded expectations after the Cowboys selected him with a fourth-round pick.
Bryant played the day after attending his father’s funeral in Lufkin, Texas.
Pittsburgh wide receiver ANTONIO BROWN had eight catches for 76 yards in the Steelers’ 24-9 win at Cleveland.
Romo, 36, conceded the starting quarterback position early last week when he said Prescott had earned the right to have his old job. “He did that last week and he did it again today”. Former record holder Tony Dorsett was in attendance and congratulated Elliott on his accomplishment. Dallas won a squeaker on the road against the Reskins, so there is no doubt they will enter Thursday’s game with revenge on their mind.
Baltimore had the ball for only 24:21 and committed 12 penalties for 136 yards. Detroit is the first team in National Football League history to have six wins when trailing in the fourth quarter in the team’s first 10 games of a season.
“They scored every time they had the ball”, Flacco, who was 23 of 35 for 269 yards, said of the second half.
Vikings 30, Cardinals 24: In Minneapolis, Xavier Rhodes returned one of his two interceptions 100 yards for a touchdown and Cordarrelle Patterson took the second-half kickoff 104 yards for a score.
“We should beat this team. Dez would be the first, I’m sure, to agree that having his team around him was a welcome situation”. The veteran notched three catches for 44 yards on the drive, including a 5-yard touchdown in which he took a big hit and still hung on.
On the first four drives, Prescott completed just 4 of 10 passes for 31 yards.
Elliott has now rushed for 1,102 yards this season averaging almost five yards per carry.
After yesterday’s 97-yard game against the Ravens (who sport the league’s best rush defense), Elliott now has 1,102 rushing yards this season.
New backup, same result for rookie quarterback Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys.
The teams traded field goals late in the second quarter to leave it 10-10 at halftime. “Our eyes go to next week against Cincinnati at home”.
The Dallas Cowboys defeated the Baltimore Ravens 27-17 Sunday afternoon at AT & T Stadium in Arlington, moving their season record to 9-1.
And many of those defenses will come with a game plan similar to the past two defenses that have faced the Cowboys – get in Ezekiel Elliott’s face and do what you can to slow him down.
