![]() Lamb, who returned after sustaining a head injury two weeks ago, finished the night with 89 yards on seven receptions. ![]() Though Prescott nearly pulled off a TD drive to end the half - and Lamb hauled in what would’ve put him in the conversation for touchdown grab of the year had it counted - the Cowboys had to settle for a field goal and went into the break up six. Yet somehow, after a pass went off the fingers of Kenny Stills, Cowboys safety Jayron Kearse slid in and pulled off an interception while barely keeping his left toe in bounds to kill the drive. Then, after holding Dallas to a field goal, he got the Saints right back into Cowboys territory just before the two-minute warning. Hill mounted a quick touchdown drive of his own, capped with a 24-yard toss to a wide-open Lil’Jordan Humphrey to even things up. Prescott then found Lamb for another 33 yards before hitting Michael Gallup in the corner of the end zone for a wild touchdown grab, his first of the season. It took until the end of the first quarter, but the Cowboys’ wide receivers got back in sync after weeks of issues.įirst, after missing two games due to COVID health and safety protocols, Amari Cooper hauled in a huge 41-yard grab to put the Cowboys in Saints territory. Hill, despite being the game's leading rusher with 101 yards, went 19-of-41 for 264 yards with four interceptions. Hill found Deonte Harris for a 70-yard score in the final minutes, but the Cowboys recovered the following onside kick and ran out the clock for a 10-point win. The final one was returned for a touchdown by Carlos Watkins. Saints quarterback Taysom Hill, though, accounted for three on three straight drives. ![]() ![]() The fourth quarter wasn’t great all around, as four interceptions were thrown in total. That score, which put the Cowboys up 20-10 late in the third quarter, was Dallas’ longest on the ground since 2016. Pollard, who finished with 71 yards, broke open a 58-yard touchdown in the second half to give the Cowboys their first sizable lead of the game. The Cowboys, amid a COVID-19 outbreak that sidelined head coach Mike McCarthy and several other assistants, beat the Saints 27-17 behind big nights from CeeDee Lamb and Tony Pollard. Their run game issues are far from being fixed, but the Dallas Cowboys powered through and snapped a two-game losing skid on Thursday night in New Orleans. ![]()
