You had to watch this one. Dallas trailed the entire game, Detroit able to move the ball consistently on Dallas and slow the Cowboy offense with pressure on Romo.

Dallas looked to be ready to take the lead around 5 minutes left, fumbled at the 1. Dallas gave up 3 first downs until finally stopping Detroit - got the ball around the 20 with no timeouts and just over 2 minutes left.

With around 18 second left, Dallas had 2nd and 6 around the Detroit 20. Romo hit Witten with a strike across the middle for the winning score.

Witten had an insane number of catches today as the Lions gave up absolutely nothing deep.

I'm still catching my breath.

I could have told you the ending before it happens. Lions have now lost 5 in a row.
I am a Lions fan, now where is my paper bag for my head:sad:

I'll take the win. Lions were playing their Super Bowl. :skeptical:

But seriously...comeback win like that gets me excited.

Games like this is why Detroit is 6-7. Missed 35 yard field goal would have sealed the win. More importantly, forced a fumble on Romo under 2 min and tried to pick it up and run with it instead of falling on it for the win.

Games like that are good to make sure the team doesn't get too confident and get ahead of themselves.

Bet Jason Hanson with the missed fieldgoal will be fired on Monday.
