Prescott leads Cowboys past Lions 35-27
Monday, November 18, 2019

(DETROIT) – Dak Prescott and the assortment of playmakers surrounding him are getting praise for giving the Dallas Cowboys the NFL's top-ranked offense. Give the big guys up front their due, too. Prescott took advantage of a comfortable pocket as he threw for 444 yards and three touchdowns, lifting the Cowboys to a 35-27 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday. The Cowboys (6-4) have won three of four games at least in part because Prescott has been tough to stop, with 10 TD passes and three interceptions during the successful stretch. The Lions (3-6-1) were without Matthew Stafford for a second straight game and have lost six of seven. Stafford's backup, Jeff Driskel, played well enough to give his team a shot to compete. He threw a 25 yard yard TD pass to Marvin Jones with 5:49 left to pull Detroit within eight points before a 2 point conversion failed. The Lions forced Dallas to punt, but they opted to punt while facing a fourth-and-26 from midfield. From the Cowboys 13 on second down on the ensuing drive, Prescott sealed the victory with a 23 yard pass to Blake Jarwin. The two-time Pro Bowler completed 29 of 46 passes, with a career high 274 yards passing in the first half. Driskel was 15 of 26 for 209 with two TD's passing and a rushing score on one of his eight carries for 51 yards. Bo Scarbrough rushed for a TD for the Lions. LINKC.
