The Cowboys' offense was back in a big way on Sunday Night Football, and the Cowboys scored touchdowns on defense and special teams as well, en route to a 56-14 blowout of Washington.
Here’s a look at some of the most interesting numbers coming out of the weekend:
4 – Dak Prescott already had his fourth-highest passing yards total of the season by halftime. He finished with 330 passing yards total.
5 – The Cowboys had five different receivers with 50 yards receiving: Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, Dalton Schultz, and Malik Turner.
6 – The Cowboys offense had six touchdown drives of at least 50 yards on Sunday. They had five such drives in the previous five games combined.
7 – Through the first seven years of his career, DeMarcus Lawrence had six passes defended. He has four in the month of December alone.
10 – The Cowboys’ 56 points were the most points scored on Sunday Night Football in 10 years. The last team to score at least 56 points on SNF was the New Orleans Saints in 2011 when they beat the Colts 62-7.
11 – In the three games that DeMarcus Lawrence, Randy Gregory, Neville Gallimore, and Micah Parsons have played together the Cowboys defense is averaging just 11 points allowed per game.
21 – Yesterday marked the first time in franchise history that the Cowboys scored at least 21 points in both the first and second quarter of a game.
27 – Dallas scored 50 points in a game for the first time since Super Bowl 27 when they beat the Buffalo Bills 52-17.
