The Dallas Cowboys entered Monday's primetime game against the Houston Texans with the hope of putting an end to what has been a deflating four-game losing skid. It did not take long, however, before that slight glimmer of hope turned into another defeat for a hapless Cowboys side. One particular sequence in the fourth quarter all but ended any hope for Dallas to mount an improbable comeback at home.
With the Texans up 20-10 early in the final frame, the Cowboys had an opportunity to cut into the lead. Unfortunately for them, another botched offensive play led to Houston returning the ball for a touchdown. TEXANS FORCE TWO FUMBLES ON THE SAME PLAY.
