5 key plays from Cowboys win over the Texans

The Dallas Cowboys clawed back from a 10-point halftime deficit to secure a dramatic 34-30 victory over the Houston Texans, snapping a 1-3 start with a clutch performance from their offense. The game hinged on a pair of third-quarter plays that reignited Dallas’s attack: Dak Prescott’s 30-yard touchdown pass to CeeDee Lamb on a well-executed play-action fake, followed by Javonte Williams’ rushing touchdown to cut the deficit to three.

Houston’s defense, led by Kamari Lassiter, struggled with penalties—first for pass interference on a critical third-and-7 play and later for holding—that kept the Cowboys’ drive alive and prevented a potential game-sealing score. Meanwhile, Christian Parker’s defensive adjustments, including a blitz that rattled C.J.

Stroud into an interception, proved decisive in preserving the lead down the stretch. The win took on added significance after the Los Angeles Rams’ upset of the Philadelphia Eagles, ensuring the Cowboys’ week wasn’t overshadowed by a loss elsewhere.
