Where was this effort the last three weeks of the season?

The Dallas Cowboys (2-6) played like a team possessed for four quarters against the New York Giants (6-3), blowing out the NFC East leaders with a balanced effort on both sides of the ball.

"We needed this," said Dez Bryant, who had five catches for 104 yards and a spectacular 13-yard contorting touchdown catch in the first quarter. "I knew it was in all of us. I just felt like we had to come together and we did that tonight."
