RomoARLINGTON, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys had just two health issues from their game with the Oakland Raiders on Thursday.

Quarterback Tony Romo played while still recovering from the flu. Romo said he picked it up Wednesday night, but other than a soft voice while speaking with reporters, finished the game with no problems. He finished 23-of-32 for 225 yards with one touchdown pass, extending his string of throwing a touchdown pass in a franchise-record 23 consecutive games.

Running back Lance Dunbar's health appeared more serious.

Dunbar suffered a sprained left knee late in the fourth quarter and didn't return. Yet, Dunbar was standing in the locker room after the game with no ice on his knee as he spoke with reporters.

Dunbar"I was scared," Dunbar said. "I didn't know (what it was), I just know it could have been bad when it happened."

When Dunbar went down, he grabbed his knee as the team trainers and team doctor rushed onto the field. Dunbar did walk off the field on his own power.

"I think I will be all right," Dunbar said.

Glad we have a few extra days. I really liked what I saw today.

Thx for posting this info. I also liked what he did today. Not just based on actual production, but I get the feeling that he can break one at any time. Just knowing that kind of threat is on the field is exciting and something the opponent has to be aware of. I think he has earned more touches. I'll be honest, when he broke off that long one and they were chasing him...I was afraid he was going to fumble when they caught him.

Yeah I think you're right. They missed what I'm pretty sure was a penalty. Oh well, you just have to hope these calls and no-calls even out.
