Wide receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens missed the opening series for disciplinary reasons, but both became central figures in the win. Pickens was Prescott's go-to target throughout the night, finishing with a game-high nine catches for 144 yards and a touchdown.

The Cowboys were playing their first game since the death of teammate Marshawn Kneeland. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer wore a shirt with Kneeland's likeness on it during the game.

The pass was tipped up by linebacker Kenneth Murray, and Markquese Bell caught the ball as it floated in the air. Their offense responded with Pickens zig0zagging through the Raiders secondary for a 37-yard catch and run to the end zone. Carlson made a 38-yard field goal before the end of the half to make it 24-9.
