Odell, Dez shine; Cowboys escape Sunday nighter with late win

Two of the top wide receivers in the game shined as the Dallas Cowboys downed the New York Giants 31-28 in an NFC East showdown on Sunday night.

Here's what you need to know:

• The Giants outgained the Cowboys 417-385.
• The Cowboys scored the game-winning touchdown with 1:01 remaining in the fourth quarter when quarterback Tony Romo hooked up with wide receiver Dez Bryant on a 13-yard strike.
• Giants rookie receiver Odell Beckham Jr. brought in 10 passes for 146 yards and two touchdowns, including what was arguably the catch of the year. Beckham left the game momentarily with a back injury but later returned.
• Bryant recorded seven receptions for 86 yards and two touchdowns.
• Romo completed 18-of-26 passes for 275 yards and four touchdowns.
• The win moves the Cowboys into a tie with the Philadelphia Eagles for the top spot in the NFC East at 8-3.
• Dallas will play two of its next three games against Philadelphia.
