Cowboys 24 | GAINTS 21
East Rutherford, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - Romo engineered a late scoring drive culminating in Bailey's 34-yard field goal as time expired, lifting the Cowboys to a 24-21 victory over the Giants in a key NFC East clash at a chilly MetLife. Romo threw a pair of td passes to Witten earlier in the contest and finished with 250 yards and an int on a 23-of-38 completion rate. His best work, however, came after taking over at his own 20 with 4:45 left to play and the Giants having scored 15 straight points to forge a 21-21 tie. Bryant came up with three catches on the deciding series as part of a 9-reception, 102-yard effort, while safety Heath returned a fumble for a touchdown to help move Dallas (6-5) into a first-place tie with Philly in the NFC East and complete a season sweep of its division rival. Manning put up two td passes of his own to rally NY (4-7) back from a 21-6 third-quarter deficit, but his team's defense couldn't hold down the stretch and the Giants saw their four-game win streak come to an end. Brown amassed 127 yards on 21 carries for NY, while Manning totaled 174 yards on 16-of-30 passing.
