The Dallas Cowboys may have gotten their mojo back in recent weeks.
After they were slammed, 42-10, by the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5, they have won three of their last four games, and on Sunday, they routed the New York Giants, 49-17.
Dallas was simply dominant offensively, as they accumulated a whopping 640 yards of total offense and quarterback Dak Prescott threw for 404 yards and four touchdowns.
Afterward, Prescott sounded confident when asked what future opponents would do to the Cowboys defensively, per Jon Machota.
Dak Prescott on opposing defenses going forward: “I’m interested in what they’ll do. Are you going to leave CeeDee (Lamb) one on one then? In this league, you understand that people are always trying to take away what you do best. But when those guys go out and perform like they…

Just about everyone got to eat for the Cowboys in this contest — CeeDee Lamb had 151 receiving yards, Brandin Cooks collected 173 yards, Michael Gallup had 70 yards, and running back Tony Pollard had 55 rushing yards.
In fact, backup running back Rico Dowdle led the team with 79 rushing yards, while Prescott added an additional touchdown on the ground.
New York has been having a miserable season, as they now hold a 2-8 record on the season, and one has to wonder if they’re entering the Caleb Williams sweepstakes at this point.
They have a stud in running back Saquon Barkley, at least for now, but they need help just about everywhere else on offense.
The Cowboys, meanwhile, improved to 6-3, and they have two very winnable games coming up in the next two weeks against the Carolina Panthers and Washington Commanders.
After that, they will host the playoff-caliber Seattle Seahawks and the defending NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles before they visit the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins.
Those four games may determine how much of a real shot Dallas will have of reaching the Super Bowl this winter.
