QB Tony Romo’s return to form had the Cowboys passing game in high gear.

Much of the Cowboy success through the air came at the expense of 49er CB Nate Clements.

Clements did deliver a vicious hit that caused Cowboy TE Jason Witten to leave the game briefly.

The Cowboys held 49er RB Frank Gore to 26 yards on 14 carries.

Cowboy LB Carlos Polk pinned the 49ers deep with a tackle on kick coverage and then blocked a punt for a safety three plays later.

LB Manny Lawson was a bright spot on a long day for the 49er defense.

Said Cowboys WR Terrell Owens of his 213-yard game, “They unleashed me today.”

49ers WR Isaac Bruce had eight catches for 125 yards and a touchdown.

Cowboy LG Kyle Kosier re-injured his right foot and went to the locker room in the second half.

The Cowboy pass rush sacked 49er QB Shaun Hill four times and contributed to two fumbles and and interception from the quarterback.
