But their first failure to reach the end zone in 1999 raises questions. The Lions still score points. More often than not, two touchdowns would have been enough to get the job done on the road this season. But I've said it before. Nobody wants to hear about injuries.
Nobody wants to hear excuses.
We just haven't done the job for whatever reason. They didn't commit a turnover Sunday night, had more time of possession than the Patriots and still scored just six points. And one field goal came at the end of a 5-yard drive. And still came up with a loss. The only constant for the Cowboys this year, ever since Washington more or less handed them a win in the season opener, is that Dallas wins at home and loses on the road.
