The New England Patriots turned a Dallas turnover into 3 points early, as a 31-yard Steven Gostowski field goal capped a nine play, 34 yard drive. The Pats started at midfield after a Tony Romo interception on the game’s opening drive.
Romo’s pass was intended for Dez Bryant, and came just as Dallas had crossed into New England territory. The Cowboys were able to limit the Pats to a field goal after a Demarcus Ware sack of Tom Brady on 3rd and six.
