Cowboys blow red zone chance, trail 20-7

ARLINGTON, Tex. - The Cowboys blew it again.

They had a golden opportunity to strike early in the second half when Kyle Wilber intercepted Matthew Stafford on a tipped pass to the Lions 19 to open the third frame. DeMarco Murray nearly broke throught middle on the following rush before being brought down for a 5 yarder. But quarterback Romo was sacked on 3rd-and-2 and otherwise reliable Dan Bailey would slice his field goal chance.

Detroit answered with a 37 yard field goal after driving 50 yards to increase their lead, 20-7.

Romo answered an early 14-0 deficit with a 76 yard touchdown strike to Terrance Williams in the second quarter. Dallas had 80 yards of offense before then.
