Cowboys shocked by Redskins
It looked as if the Cowboys were going to win this football game, as Tony Romo led a drive to set up a FG attempt for Mike Vanderjagt in the final seconds of the game. Vanderjagt’s kick was blocked and the Redskins look to have been stopped with no time left on the clock, but one of the Cowboys grabbed a facemask. That set up the Redskins for a an untimed play, on which Nick Novak kicked a 47 yard FG to beat the Cowboys.
Tony Romo played pretty well, completing 24 of 36 passes for 284 yards and 2 TDs. Julius Jones carried the ball 20 times for 73 yards (3.7 ypc), but he was tackled in the end-zone for a safety early in the game. Marion Barber carried the ball 7 times for 45 yards (6.4 ypc) and caught 2 passes for 28 yards. WR Patrick Crayton had a good game catching 4 passes for 84 yards. Terrell Owens caught 7 passes for 76 yards and a TD. Jason Witten snatched five passes for 50 yards. Terry Glenn caught 3 passes for 26 yards and a TD.
The defense played well enough to win the game. The Redskins ran the ball 32 times for 117 yards (3.7 ypc). The Redskins completed 14 of 23 passes for 183 net yards passing.
This game will hurt the Cowboys for awhile, because they definately should have won this football game!
