Key Points:
- CeeDee Lamb delivered a career-best performance with 17 catches for 189 yards and a crucial late touchdown, helping the Dallas Cowboys improve to 2-2 and keep their playoff hopes alive.
- The Cowboys' defense, which struggled early, made key plays late to secure the win against the Houston Texans, who fell to 0-4.
- Newly acquired cornerback Joey Porter Jr. made his Cowboys debut, primarily covering Texans' top receiver Nico Collins, despite being on a snap count due to recent back issues and limited practice.
- Coach Brian Schottenheimer made a questionable decision by attempting a 65-yard field goal before halftime, which missed and led to the Texans scoring a field goal to extend their lead.
- The Cowboys' pass rush showed improvement with Rashan Gary and Quinnen Williams each recording sacks, addressing earlier concerns about their inability to pressure the quarterback.
