IRVING, Texas (AP) -- The Dallas Cowboys beat St. Louis 35-7 on Sunday, dropping the Rams to 0-4.

Tony Romo turned what had been a tight early game into yet another easy win for Dallas and another frustrating loss for St. Louis.

The Cowboys are 4-0 for the first time since 1995, the year of their last Super Bowl title. The Rams are 0-4 for the first time since 2002, when they opened with five straight losses coming off a Super Bowl loss.

Romo was 21-of-33 for 339 yards and three touchdowns, with an interception. He also ran three times for 24 yards.

Dallas not only scored touchdowns on all three of its third-quarter drives, the Cowboys did so in only 11 plays. Patrick Crayton scored the first two touchdowns and Jason Witten had the third. Dallas' first score of the game was a two-yard run by Julius Jones.

Dallas rolled up 502 yards of total offense.

Marc Bulger quarterbacked the Rams despite two broken ribs. He was 11-of-24 for 114 yards and one interception before being pulled in the third quarter.
