ARLINGTON, Texas — In the end, final score is all that matters to the Dallas Cowboys.
Down 23-20 with 3 minutes, 20 seconds to go, quarterback Dak Prescott engineered a 98-yard game-winning drive, capped by a 2-yard run from Ezekiel to give the Cowboys a 27-24 victory over the Houston Texans at AT&T Stadium.
It was not supposed to be this hard for a Cowboys team who were favored by 17 1/2 points against the Texans, the largest point spread this season in the NFL.
