Dak Prescott has thrown two touchdown passes and flipped head over heels into the end zone on a 10-yard run for a rushing TD as Dallas beat Arizona 28-17 in Monday night's NFL game.
The Cowboys (2-1) began the game kneeling at midfield with owner Jerry Jones in a show of unity that followed widespread protests across the NFL of critical comments by US President Donald Trump over the weekend.
After they kneeled, they stood and walked to the sideline for the anthem.
Prescott, 13 of 18 for 183 yards, broke a 14-14 tie with a 37-yard scoring pass to Brice Butler with 11min 52sec to play.
Arizona, with a spectacular catch by Larry Fitzgerald for 24 yards on a third-and-18 play, moved downfield but the drive stalled.
Phil Dawson's 37-yard field goal cut the lead to 21-17 with 6:35 left.
Running back Ezekiel Elliott gained 80 yards on 22 attempts, 30 on one play. He ran eight yards for the final Cowboys touchdown.
The Cardinals (1-2), in their home opener, got a big game from Fitzgerald, who caught 13 passes for 149 yards.
Carson Palmer had a big first half, completed 15 of 18 for 145 yards and finished 29 of 48 for 325 yards and two touchdowns.
He was sacked six times.
