\u201cYeah, the biggest thing, looking at the numbers from the game and anytime you play 70 minutes of kick-ass football, and back and forth and running and stuff like that, I think we have a responsibility to kind of trust the numbers and see what they say,\u201d coach Brian Schottenheimer<\/a> said of the GPS numbers that tracks players movements.<\/p>\n

\u201cI told the guys from Day 1 if they go all out for us, we\u2019ll take care of them. So today was that type of day. We still got all the reps that we needed, did not lose a single rep, we just did it more of a walkthrough tempo to help them get their bodies back. A little bit like how you would kind of on a short week. It was a long game. It was a physical game and tomorrow we\u2019ll be back to running.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Cowboys had not played in an overtime game since the 2022 season. Dallas played in two that year, both losses. In a Week 10 loss to Green Bay, the Cowboys participated in 140 offensive plays in a three-hour and 28 minute contest. In a Week 15 loss at Jacksonville, Dallas played in 144 offensive plays in a game that lasted three hours and fifteen minutes. <\/p>\n

The Giants also held a walkthrough practice on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\"Dallas<\/a>Why Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer has no issue with Tom Brady\u2019s access as broadcaster<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody has everybody\u2019s playbook, everybody knows somebody that knows somebody that\u2019s been someplace,\u201d Schottenheimer said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\"Former<\/a>Former Cowboys LB D.D. Lewis, who won two Super Bowls with Dallas, has died at 79<\/a><\/p>\n

Lewis played in the most playoff games in Cowboys franchise history during his career.<\/p>\n
