5. Earl
The sky in Big D didn’t crumble last week. It was a hot, sunny day in Dallas. The Cowboys won. And nobody remembered the name Earl Thomas. Despite giving the Giants 470 total yards, the defense remained strong against a steady Eli Manning and his running back, Saquon Barkley.
6. Seven
The Cowboys had seven different players who caught a pass last Sunday. Five out of those seven players caught three or more passes. Four different receivers caught a touchdown pass. Michael Gallup and Amari Cooper, the top two starting receivers, combined for 13 catches and 264 receiving yards.
