Terrell Owens Injured In Cowboys Victory
WISN.com
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Tony Romo threw for 257 yards and a touchdown as the Dallas Cowboys overcame the loss of receiver Terrell Owens to a left ankle injury in a 20-13victory over the Carolina Panthers.
The win moved the 13-2 Cowboys a step closer to clinching home-field advantage throughout the playoffs.
But the Cowboys have to deal with another injury to a key offensive player. Last week it was Romo, who bruised his right thumb and was ineffective in a loss to Philadelphia. Now it's Owens, who left in the second quarter after his left leg got caught underneath him after a catch. He did not return to action and is expected to have an MRI on Sunday.
After the Panthers cut it to 20-13 on John Kasay's 25-yard field goal with 3:01 left, the Cowboys put it away on Barber's 11-yard run with 1:45 remaining. The Cowboys have won 10 straight regular-season road games.
Barber rushed for 110 yards on 22 carries. The Cowboys matched their 1992 team for the most victories in franchise history. Carolina fell to 6-9.
