The San Francisco 49ers narrowly defeated the Dallas Cowboys 24-20 in a tightly contested Week 10 matchup of the 2026 season. With playoff implications on the line, both teams fought hard, but it was the 49ers who emerged victorious in a pivotal game. Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott put on a strong performance, throwing for 257 yards and two touchdowns, leading the Cowboys' offense effectively. On the other side, Christian McCaffrey contributed significantly with 69 rushing yards, while George Pickens showcased his receiving skills with 109 yards, keeping the pressure on the San Francisco defense throughout the game. Defensively, the 49ers managed to hold off the Cowboys' potent offense just enough to secure the win. The turning point came late in the fourth quarter when the 49ers stifled a promising Dallas drive, forcing a crucial turnover on downs. Despite the standout performances from the Cowboys' defense, including two sacks by Rashan Gary and a team-high seven tackles from Devin Moore, it was not enough to clinch the game, as San Francisco's resilience proved decisive.
