Giants unable to muster enough offense to beat Dallas
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New York Giants (1-3) fell to the Dallas Cowboys, 20-15, on Thursday Night Football. It was the Giants’ seventh straight loss and 14th in 15 games to Dallas.
The Cowboys are 2-2.
Greg Joseph kicked five field goals for the Giants. He was good from 52, 41, 38, 22, and 42 yards. The Giants, though, could not get into the end zone. This was the second time this season the Giants failed to score a touchdown.
Rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers had another outstanding night. He caught 12 passes for 115 yards. Unfortunately, Nabers left with a concussion after not being able to haul in a desperation throw by Jones on a fourth-and-6 from the Giants’ 45-yard line with 3:30 left in the game.
Malik Nabers is the 6th rookie with multiple games of 10 Rec & 100 Rec yards.
The only rookie with more? Former Giant Odell Beckham Jr. (4 in 2014).

Halftime score
The Giants trailed 14-9 at the half. Joseph had field goals of 54, 41, and 38 yards for the Giants. Dak Prescott had touchdown passes of 15 yards to Rico Dowdle and 55 yards to CeeDee Lamb.
