    The Dallas Cowboys beat the New York Giants 20-15 on Thursday Night Football, and great performances by quarterback Dak Prescott and receiver CeeDee Lamb - who were involved in a bit of a sideline spat a week ago - highlighted the night.

    In the second quarter with the Cowboys up 7-6, Lamb was on the left side of the formation. He got inside position on the corner and Prescott hit him with a strike. The Giants' safety came too late, allowing Lamb to juke around him and take it to the house for a 55-yard score.

    That put the Cowboys up for good as their defense would hold the Giants to just five field goals on the night and keep them out of the end zone.

    Following the game, Lamb spoke to the media about the game and the overall feel in the locker room afterward.

    “Obviously, it’s more joy in here,” Lamb said. “I mean, you lose two in a row and you kind of start going through a phase where everybody is kind of uptight ... and you’re ready to play again and kind of get it over with.

    “It was good for us ... was the one we needed. The division game, it put us in the right place.”

    Lamb - who apologized for his sideline theatrics a week ago in the lost to the Saints - caught seven passes for 98 yards and a touchdown on the night. The 2-2 Cowboys will look to keep that momentum rolling next week as they travel to Pittsburgh to take on the currently undefeated Steelers on Sunday night football.
