Despite a 21-point second-quarter deficit, the Dallas Cowboys beat the St. Louis Rams, 34-31, outscoring the Rams 34-10 after falling behind early.

The defense closed out the game for the Cowboys on the back of two interceptions from Bruce Carter and Morris Claiborne, who both struggled mightily prior to those plays.

On offense, DeMarco Murray had another productive day despite another fumble lost, and Tony Romo made a number of fantastic plays to keep the Cowboys in the game.

The defense sorely missed Rolando McClain, but somehow they managed to do just enough to win the game.

The defensive line failed to get much pressure once again, but they did a better job of getting pressure in critical situations.

The Cowboys will now look forward to next week's game against the New Orleans Saints in prime time.

Let’s take a look at how each position graded out in this Week 1 matchup.
