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

The Cowboys and 49ers have played some iconic games in NFL history. That’s not the case tonight yet.

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

The Cowboys led 10-6 at halftime.

The lone touchdown came on Ezekiel Elliott’s 1-yard run. 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 kicked field goals of 50 and 44 for the 49ers on drives of 55 and 39 yards.

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

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

Dak Prescott is 14 of 18 for 110 yards and an interception, with CeeDee Lamb catching seven for 48 yards.
