IRVING, Texas - Contrary to what a 35-19 final score might perceive, the Cowboys didn't have it all easy in Sunday's 16-point win over the Detroit Lions.
Spanning the second and third quarters, five offensive drives totaled zero points. Two ended in costly turnovers: a Felix Jones fumble inside their own 20 that led to a Lions touchdown, and a Leonard Davis holding penalty that caused a safety.
