Things started off slowly for the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13. Despite a beautiful roll and run by WR CeeDee Lamb for a score, the Indianapolis Colts not only had a chance, but had a 10-7 lead at the end of the second quarter. QB Dak Prescott was errant on several passes throughout the first half and into the third quarter.  By the time the fourth quarter was nearing, Dallas was nursing a 21-19 lead thanks to a missed two-point conversion from the Colts that could’ve tied it.

Then, it happened. Dallas rolled off an unprecedented 33 straight points to turn a close game into a laugher. The defense, despite losing corner Anthony Brown to what seems to be a significant injury forced five turnovers on the day, including a fumble recovery score by safety Malik Hooker and two interceptions from rookie corner DaRon Bland. When it was all said and done, Dallas put up their first 50 Burger of the season, a 54-19 win to move to 9-3 on the season.

The 33 points was the second-highest scoring fourth quarter in NFL history. Now Dallas will prepare for their Week 14 home date against the Houston Texans in Week 14.
