Sunday Night Football: Cowboys lead 49ers 10-6 at halftime

The Cowboys and 49ers have played some iconic games in NFL history. It’s not that far tonight.

While both teams were missing key players, the 49ers and Cowboys combined for a touchdown, three field goals, nine penalties for 69 yards, an interception, three fumbles (none lost) and key passes in the first half.

Cowboys lead 10-6 at halftime.

The lone touchdown came on a 1-yard run by Ezekiel Elliott. Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey kicked a 29-yard field goal with 2:56 left in the half after the offense stalled in the red zone.

Anders Carlson followed drives of 55 and 39 yards with field goals of 50 and 44 for the 49ers.

The 49ers outgained the Cowboys 214 to 151 but couldn’t get out of their own way. Deebo Samuel dropped a pass just short of the fourth down play; Samuel’s 66-yard field goal was negated by a holding penalty on tight end Eric Saubert; Isaac Guerendo had a 19-yard run to the Dallas 12 and was negated by a George Kittle holding penalty; and Brock Purdy fumbled the ball for a 7-yard loss to the 49ers at the Dallas 40, putting them out of field goal range.

Purdy is 10-of-16 for 151 yards, Kittle has three catches for 56 yards and Samuel has two catches for 52 yards. Guerendo had three carries from 38 yards, while Jordan Mason is questionable to return after aggravating his shoulder injury in the first half.

Dak Prescott was 14-of-18 for 110 yards and one interception, while CeeDee Lamb had seven catches for 48 yards.
