Three-time All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons applied constant pressure and finished with one-and-a-half sacks, but the most impactful defensive plays on Thursday were made by second-year Dallas linebacker DeMarvion Overshown.

In that 2023 game, he watched at home as his defensive teammates overwhelmed a divisional opponent with pressure and takeaways. One year later, he helped establish momentum for good for his team with his second takeaway on a fumble recovery in the third quarter forced by fellow linebacker Eric Kendricks.

Cooper Rush threw a TD pass, and Dowdle finished with 112 yards Thursday as the Cowboys (5-7) ended a six-game home losing streak going back to a wild-card loss to the Packers last season.
