Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb, both recently signed to new contracts, connected for a touchdown that briefly sparked hope for the Cowboys.
While it might not have seemed like a turning point in the game, it did close the gap enough to make things interesting, assuming the defense could hold up.
However, our focus is on what this touchdown meant for their legacy within the franchise.
At the start of the season, Prescott and Lamb were tied for seventh place in Cowboys history for touchdowns between a quarterback and receiver.
Their latest score marked their 28th connection, moving them into sole possession of seventh place.With both players secured for the future, it’s likely they will continue climbing the ranks in the record books.
If they maintain their performance, they could potentially finish the season among the top three to five duos in franchise history.
Given they now have 28 touchdowns together, it’s reasonable to anticipate they might achieve at least 10 more touchdowns over the remaining 15 games of the season.
While aiming for even more could be optimistic, finishing the year strong is feasible.
Ultimately, there’s a lot of football left to play, and their progress will determine how high they can rise in the Cowboys’ record books.
