Dallas Cowboys studs: Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb

The Cowboys have two of the best wideouts in the NFL on the same field in Amari Cooper and CeeDee Lamb. On Sunday night, both had excellent outings and each went over 100 yards.

Lamb, who seemed to be open all night, had 112 yards on six receptions and was leading the team. That is, until the final drive when the veteran took back over.

Cooper had an unbelievable catch for 33 yards to put Dallas in position to go for a win and capped the night off with a five-yard touchdown reception that sealed the win. He finished with eight total catches for 122 yards as he quietly continues to have a great season.

Dallas Cowboys stud: Anthony Brown

In Week 1, Anthony Brown was torched by Antonio Brown on multiple plays. That led to a lot of calls for him to be benched but Brown responded by playing his best football since then.

On Sunday night, he was at it again as he was playing tight coverage and even had a couple of pass breakups on third-down for Dallas. The second one ended up being a moot point thanks to a special teams penalty that gave Minnesota new life, but Brown still showed out in this one.
