Shootout In Big D
The Touchdowns came by the truckload, but it was a Mike Nugent FG that made the difference in this wild west shootout between the Bengals and Cowboys.
Romo and Dalton looked excellent in limited action. In fact, Romo was a perfect 7-7. Even Kyle Orton went nuts, winging the ball all over the field for 346 yards and 4 TD's. Thaddeus Lewis saw extra time on the field for Cincy tonight after John Skelton left with a Herniated Disk that will sideline him for almost half of the regular season.
Riley Cooper was released this week after a difficult situation became too hard to handle in Philly, but his debut as a Bengal was perhaps just was he needed in the wake of the controversy. He was just a yard shy of reaching the century mark and snagged 2 TD catches to boot.
"It was good to get back out on the field. That's really all I can say right now," Cooper said. "It's a fresh start. But I'm going to continue to try to prove myself to these guys and continue to improve."
