| 9th December, 2007 - 5:36 pm |  ESPN - Jason Witten got a chance to make up for his big mistake.
Witten caught a 16-yard, go-ahead touchdown pass with 18 seconds left, lifting the Dallas Cowboys to a 28-27 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday.
With the win, Dallas (12-1) clinched the NFC East and moved a step closer to earning home-field advantage in the conference playoffs.
The tight end had career highs with 15 receptions and 138 yards and was able to enjoy his accomplishments because he redeemed himself after fumbling inside the 1 midway through the fourth quarter.
Detroit (6-7) has lost five straight and won't be able to live up to quarterback Jon Kitna's expectations of a 10-win season.
Romo was 35-of-44 for 302 yards and two TDs, helping the Cowboys win 12 of their first 13 games for the first time in franchise history. [READ] |
