I noticed this under the box score on espn. Romo's 2nd half and road qbr is impressive! Murray is just beasting and Dez is Dez!


Research Notes

DeMarco Murray has rushed for at least 100 yards in 10 games this season, 1 shy of Emmitt Smith's franchise record of 11, done in 1995.
[+]
Odell Beckham Jr. is the 3rd rookie in NFL history to have 10 receptions and 2 Rec TD in a single game. He's also the 8th Giants player since 1960 to reach those numbers in a game and the 1st since Hakeem Nicks in 2010.
[+]
Dez Bryant got his 50th Rec TD in his 70th game. Only 6 players reached 50 Rec TD in fewer games.
[+]
DeMarco Murray has rushed for 100 yards in all but one game this season, becoming the 1st player in NFL history with 100 rush yards in 9 of his team's first 10 games. He needs 115 rush yards Sunday to pass Emmitt Smith for the most through 11 games in Cowboys history.
[+]
The Cowboys defense has similar numbers to last season but the biggest help has been the offense. Dallas is 4th in time of possession, keeping the defense off the field.
[+]
The Giants 3 wins this season are against teams that have a combined win percentage of .400 (12-18) and their 7 losses are against teams with a .686 (48-22) win percentage.
[+]
The Cowboys are 4-0 on the road this season and are outscoring their opponents by 10.0 points per game away from home, the best differential in the NFL.
[+]
Odell Beckham Jr. has the 2nd-most receiving yards in the NFL since Week 9 and Eli Manning is completing 67.4 percent of his passes to the rookie this season.
[+]
One reason for the Cowboys 4-0 record on the road has been the play of Tony Romo; his Total QBR of 87.1 in road games is by far the highest in the NFL.
[+]
Offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo's "West-Coast style" offense was supposed to improve Manning's completion percentage with shorter passes. That worked in the Giants' first 7 games but Manning is completing just 55.3 percent of his passes since Week 9.
[+]
Tony Romo has the highest Total QBR in the 2nd half this season, and completed each of his 9 pass attempts after halftime against the Giants in Week 7.
