Rookies Elliott, Prescott lead Cowboys past 49ers 24-17

Oh, and this: The Cowboys immediately driving for a field goal to go up 24-17, and then Gabbert and the 49ers coming up short on fourth down in the final minutes. It happens to all of us. Reid wouldn’t divulge the injury’s nature, but did note that: “The next guy has some big shoes to fill”. The Cowboys are 3-1 overall with a bunch of rookies and a solid defense to thank. They got to Dak Prescott early in the contest and threw him off a few times which was something that certain experts like Bryan Broaddus predicted. He had a 20-yard scoring pass to Terrance Williams and a 4-yarder to Brice Butler, as both filled in nicely for Bryant.

“If I was coaching on the defensive side of the ball for Dallas, I don’t know what to tell (linebacker) Sean Lee”.

“We’ll have to rally together”, Bellore said.

There wasn’t much positive to say about the pivotal pass that Gabbert heaved toward Smith with 10:38 remaining, in which Maurice Claiborned intercepted it at the Dallas 7.

“I don’t think our guys did a good job (to help Gabbert) out there”, Kelly said. I think we can have a very successful season with Tony Romo at quarterback. Got some passes in there. It was a trip down memory lane as the Cowboys and 49ers put records aside and played the game like they did in the 90’s when it was Joe Montana, Jerry Rice and Roger Craig against Aikman, Smith, and Michael Irvin. Going down 14-0 in this game, people didn’t blink.

Although Jones has stated there will be no debate on who will be quarterback, former quarterback Drew Bledsoe who was once replaced by Romo on the Cowboys back in 2006 was recently asked about the Cowboys quarterback situation. “We expect that from him and he expects that from himself”.

Smith was seen throwing his helmet on the sideline in frustration after the fourth-quarter interception. “We got a road win, good team win today so that’s big, just have to keep going and looking forward”. “It’s been a long time since I had one”.

That’s all unknown but one thing’s more certain: if Romo comes back and gets re-injured there’s a possibility it’d be his last season with the star on his helmet. Last year, Denver needed two quarterbacks to play on their way to winning Super Bowl 50. While Chris Davis and Ronald Blair had Dak Prescott wrapped up for a third-down sack, Tartt pushed Prescott from behind to the ground. Tartt hit Prescott after he was already wrapped up on the play, leading to the penalty. He was on the money with two touchdowns passes to tie the game at 14 before halftime at Levi’s Stadium on Sunday.

Poor. Bradley Pinion blew field position on a terrible 26-yard punt, and Dallas receiver Lucky Whitehead posted 42 yards on kick and punt returns against the 49ers.
