Cowboys win ugly against Bucs
ARLINGTON, TEXAS (AP)
Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys finally had some short scoring drives, and needed them.
There also were a couple of extra kneel-downs by Romo before the Cowboys had secured a 16-10 victory Sunday in their home opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Romo was unscathed on those extra snaps when the Bucs, a week after their big push against the New York Giantsin their victory formation, used a pair of timeouts in the final 40 seconds after a failed onside kick attempt.
Players from both sides appeared were shaking hands both times new Tampa Bay coach Greg Schiano called timeout. The sidelines were emptying with 4 seconds left when there was an offside penalty called, though that ended the game.
The Cowboys (2-1) scored twice in the first half when starting in Tampa Bay territory after turnovers and overcame three turnovers by Romo - two of them on plays reversed by replay - with a suffocating defensive effort.
