In a commanding performance, the Dallas Cowboys topped the Houston Texans 37-23 in Week 4 of the 2026 season. With both teams vying for momentum early in the season, the Cowboys secured a crucial victory that solidifies their standing in the league. Johnny Unitas was the standout for Dallas, throwing for an impressive 396 yards and four touchdowns, showcasing his ability to connect downfield. His favorite target, Justin Jefferson, had a remarkable outing as well, racking up 201 receiving yards, consistently finding space against the Texans' secondary. Meanwhile, Eric Dickerson led the Texans' ground game with 71 rushing yards, but it was clear that Houston struggled to keep pace with Dallas' aerial attack. Defensively, the Cowboys made their mark with John Jenkins' 1.5 sacks, applying pressure that disrupted Houston's offensive rhythm throughout the game. Tremaine Edmunds of the Texans recorded 10 total tackles, but it wasn't enough to turn the tide. The game's turning point came when Unitas connected with Jefferson for a 70-yard touchdown in the third quarter, effectively putting the game out of reach for Houston and solidifying Dallas' dominance.
