Cowboys face Giants on Thanksgiving with eye toward ending mystifying home skid

Associated Press  

ARLINGTON, Texas — A five-game losing steak behind them, the Dallas Cowboys can target a mystifying 0-5 record at AT&T Stadium for a club that a year ago was closing in on the franchise record for consecutive home wins. There’s some success to go with the adversity as the New York Giants visit for Dallas’ annual Thanksgiving Day home game, but Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy isn’t worried about testing his theory that handling the good times is more difficult than pushing through the bad. Obviously, Thanksgiving’s a little bit different, but I look forward to another challenge.” Cooper Rush won his first five starts as an injury replacement for Dak Prescott in 2021-22. New York has gone a record-tying 10 games without a pick since rookie linebacker Darius Muasau caught a tipped pass by Minnesota’s Sam Darnold in the opener. The NFL’s second-worst run game played a big part in an efficient Dallas offense helping pull off the Cowboys’ biggest upset since 2010.
