The defense bottled up the Dallas run game (more on that later) and the offensive line both held up in pass protection and eventually started clearing some running lanes for Dalvin Cook (25 carries, 100 yards, TD) and Alexander Mattison (eight carries, 52 yards). But the Vikings did not make very many mistakes in this one. You can win a game making mistakes like that if your opponent is also doing the same.
DALLAS COWBOYS VIKINGS SCORE FULL

Fortunately Will Brinson, John Breech, Ryan Wilson and Sean Wagner-McGough are here to break everything down on the latest episode of the Pick Six Podcast. It didn't happen.Ī wild Week 10 is almost in the books and there's a lot to go over. With Prescott marching the Cowboys down the field for a potential game-winning drive after spending most of the evening bailing out his offense by dicing the Vikings' secondary to pieces, the Cowboys took the ball out of his hands with back to back running plays, putting him behind the chains and ultimately giving him just one desperation shot to win it. It wasn't long before they stormed back into the game, but questionable play-calling and decision-making would come back to haunt them once again later on. Those decisions, combined with Cousins carving them up on screen passes and bootlegs, put the Cowboys in a hole. On each of its first three drives, Dallas drove into Vikings territory, only to punt the ball away from just outside the 40-yard line.
The Vikings got out to a 14-0 lead early in the game, thanks to precision play-action passing from Kirk Cousins, as well as questionable play-calling and fourth-down decision-making from the Cowboys. The Vikings left AT&T Stadium with a 28-24 victory that should leave Minnesota fans elated and Dallas fans shaking their heads. With the game on the line, the Dallas Cowboys put the ball in Dak Prescott's hands.
