While Americans across the land were feasting at the dinner table on Thanksgiving, the home team at AT&T Stadium was enjoying a feast of their own. By a 45-10 score, the Cowboys ate up their division rivals from Washington, continuing their torrid pace towards the postseason and proving they deserve to be discussed amongst the league’s best.

Standing at 8-3, only one team boasts a better record than Dallas on the season. The Cowboys’ dominance on both sides of the ball is increasingly difficult to ignore and Dallas looks to enter the month of December playing their best ball of the season.

The win over Washington was expected but still proved impressive. The offense was a model of efficiency as quarterback Dak Prescott is playing near-flawless football. After weeks of musical chairs, the offensive line is finally starting to gel. Star defensive back DaRon Bland set the record for most interception returns for touchdown in a season (5).

Even place kicker Brandon Aubrey is making history with the most consecutive field goals made to start a career (22). Here’s a look at some key numerical takeaways from the Week 12 action.
