EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J., Nov. 2 (UPI) -- Eli Manning overcame three personal turnovers with three touchdown passes Sunday in the New York Giants' 35-14 win over Dallas, their third straight win.

The Giants' quarterback lost two fumbles, and saw Dallas cornerback Mike Jenkins score on a 23-yard second-quarter interception.

Manning finished 16-of-27 passing for 147 yards. His touchdown passes went to tight end Kevin Boss and wide receiver Steve Smith, both in the first quarter.

Brandon Jacobs rushed for 117 yards on 17 carries with one touchdown and Derrick Ward scored once after 12 carries for 63 yards.

Dallas quarterback Brad Johnson, starting his third straight game for the injured Tony Romo, was 5-of-11 for 71 yards and two first-half interceptions.

Third-string signal-caller Brooks Bollinger was 9-of-16 for 63 yards, a fourth-quarter touchdown pass to Terrell Owens, and one interception. Marion Barber gained 54 yards on 19 carries.

The Cowboys (5-4) gained only 183 total yards in the third loss in their last four outings.
