The Cowboys led for just 2 minutes, 15 seconds during their six-game skid at AT&T Stadium.Leading 7-6, Lock tried to flip a screen pass to Devin Singletary after the running back had been overpowered trying to block Overshown. The second-year linebacker tipped the pass into the air toward the end zone, used his speed to run it down and scored untouched.
Cooks, who had a diving first-down catch in the final two minutes to clinch the victory, was playing for the first time since Dallas' 20-15 victory over the Giants in Week 4. He ended up with an infected knee after getting an injection in New York the day after that Dallas win.
