Overview

• Operating without CeeDee Lamb and four starting offensive linemen, Dallas ran for 180 yards, allowed just one sack, and mounted two 90-plus-yard scoring drives behind a sharp early script.
• Dak Prescott completed 18 of 29 for 237 yards and four touchdowns, as Javonte Williams rushed for 135 yards and a score, Ryan Flournoy posted six catches for 114 yards, and Jake Ferguson added two touchdowns.
• A season-best rush harassed Justin Fields with five sacks and 14 quarterback hits, with James Houston logging 1.5 sacks to reach 3.5 through five games in a broad-based pressure effort.
• Owner Jerry Jones praised Houston’s pass-rushing impact and acknowledged run-defense growth areas in remarks that implicitly referenced the team’s previous star at the position.
• Run defense remained a concern as the Cowboys yielded 144 rushing yards, including 113 to Breece Hall at 8.1 yards per carry.
