After all, two frontrunners for MVP were battling for supremacy in the NFC East, namely Dak Prescott and Jalen Hurts, and what a battle it was.

It never felt like the Cowboys weren't in control of the fight, and that they could've put it away at any point, and they eventually did on what was a night of great defense and offense that made just enough big plays … along with plenty of butter.
