Cowboys overcome injuries to beat 49ers 24-17

Bowman suffered the non-contact injury in the third quarter Sunday against Dallas as San Francisco (1-3) lost its third straight game. Romo also has the third most wins of any Dallas Cowboys quarterback with 78, just behind Roger Staubach at 85 wins, and Troy Aikman at 94 wins.

The answer will only get more complicated for the Cowboys if the rookie keeps playing this well in his record-setting debut.

The Cowboys walked into this game the better team and walked out the same way, but it didn’t exactly come to them easy from the opening whistle. “At the same time, man, I’m not going to lose focus on some he-say, she-say”. The 36-year-old quarterback continues to sit out due to a compression fracture in his back. Also, let’s not forget that Dak now holds the single-season record for most pass attempts to start a season without an interception.

He has essentially shared the mark with Philadelphia’s Carson Wentz all season. The 49ers have many other problems and he had some very nice moments in Sunday’s eventual 24-17 loss to Dallas at Levi’s Stadium. And except for the bright future that deck presents as Romo’s eventual heir, that plan is unchanged.

The Cowboys (3-1) rallied from a 14-point, second-quarter deficit. Jumped up to 14-0 and just stalled there a little bit.

Bowman’s loss leaves a big hole in a struggling 49ers defense that is allowing 390 yards per game through their first four contests. “How to not do it, waiting on people to get back”.

Speaking on the radio (105.3 The Fan), Jones kept hope alive that his star receiver might play against the Cincinnati Bengals. We didn’t blink. This team has good chemistry. But, we already went through this in training camp so we already know what to expect.

Right now Dallas is facing the absence of defensive ends DeMarcus Lawrence and Randy Gregory for this game, who will both be finishing four-game suspensions.

Bryant took the report personally, saying he must be “America’s most hated” player.

“There were a couple blitz looks where they brought an unblocked guy off the edge and he threw the hot throw to (Jeremy) Kerley”, Kelly said. I like that attitude.

For a lot of this game, the 49ers actually looked like an National Football League offense, which was not the case last week in Seattle.

Mickey Spagnola: You want your starters out there, but again, the Cowboys had a starter sitting on the bench in Ron Leary, and he stepped in and didn’t miss a beat, with the Cowboys rushing for almost 200 yards was evidence.

“His communication was great”, said Witten.

“It’s just something we have to learn from and grow from”, said running back Carlos Hyde (15 carries, 74 yards, one touchdown).

“You always want the team to do well, but it’s hard”.
