Quarterback Dak Prescott threw three touchdown passes as the Dallas Cowboys claimed a 41-35 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday.
Dallas trailed 35-30 with 11 minutes and 23 seconds left in Arlington.
Prescott's 12-yard pass to Jake Ferguson put the Cowboys in front with 4:37 to go and Brandon Aubrey extended their lead with his fourth field goal of the evening.
It meant Dallas took a 14th consecutive home win since September 2022.
CeeDee Lamb made 12 catches for 116 yards and a touchdown, while Tony Pollard rushed for 68 yards and a touchdown as the Cowboys beat a team with a winning record for the first time this season.
By avoiding defeat, the Cowboys have neatly set up a rematch next week with their NFC East rivals the Philadelphia Eagles, who inflicted a 28-23 defeat on Dallas at the start of November.
Geno Smith threw three touchdown passes to DK Metcalf, including a final three-yard touchdown toss to put the Seahawks 35-27 up in the opening minute of the fourth quarter.
However, the Seahawks could not escape a third defeat in a row.
