Chiefs make life miserable for Dak Prescott and beat the Cowboys

Chris Jones and the Kansas City Chiefsdefense made life miserable for Dak Prescott, and the Chiefs beat the Dallas Cowboys 19-9 on Sunday.

Patrick Mahomes connected on 23 of 37 attempts for 260 yards with an interception and a fumble for Kansas City, but was bailed out by a defense that played his best game of the year.

Charvarius Ward caught Prescott in the end zone near the end of the first half, and Chris Jones had 3 1/2 sacks while forcing and recovering a fumble.

The Chiefs (7-4) improved to 4-0 against the NFC East with their fourth straight win overall.

Prescott was pressured throughout the game. He was held to just 216 passing yards and two interceptions for the Cowboys, though he lacked a lot of help.

Left tackle Tyron Smith was out for the third straight game with an ankle injury, Amari Cooper tested positive for COVID-19, and fellow receiver CeeDee Lamb suffered a concussion just before halftime.

Ezekiel Elliott finished with nine carries for 32 yards. Linebacker Micah Parsons was the Cowboys (7-3) standout, forcing a fumble and racking up three more sacks.

Mahomes threw for 406 yards and five touchdowns against the Raiders as he gashed the Cowboys in the first half.

He led Kansas City on an 86-yard march that ended with Travis Kelce taking a direct snap for a touchdown, then led a 65-yard drive a few minutes later that ended with Edwards-Helaire's short TD run.

Up next

The Cowboys return home to play against the Raiders on Thanksgiving Day.

The Chiefs finally get their week off before playing the Broncos on Dec. 5 in the first of three straight divisional games.
