High praise for Dak, Kellen Moore after Dallas Cowboys’ impressive half
The Dallas Cowboys’ offense looked impressive as they took a 21-7 halftime lead against Eli Manning and the New York Giants at AT&T Stadium.

He threw touchdowns to Blake Jarwin, Jason Witten and Amari Cooper.
Ezekiel Elliott has 26 yards on seven carries.
Dallas outgained New York 305 to 181 and dominated the time of possession, 19:16 to 10:44.
Much of the social media commentary was about Prescott having an upper hand in contract negotiations with the Cowboys after his outstanding first half.
