Lewis has been sidelined since Oct. 14 with a torn right triceps. The 13-time Pro Bowl middle linebacker intends to return Sunday to face the Indianapolis Colts in what will almost certainly be his final home game.

"Sometimes it comes down to a kick," Tony Romo said. "If the kick goes in, it's, 'You did a great job today, everybody!' If it doesn't go in, it's 'We didn't do enough to win.'" There is a maddening truth to that review.
After Dez Bryant scored on a 4-yard pass from Tony Romo with 32 seconds left to make it 31-29, the 2-point conversion pass zipped through the arms of the diving Bryant in the front left corner of the end zone.
I hate the Baltimore Ravens because, frankly, they have Ray Lewis and we don't. I'm admitting to pure jealousy fueling my hate with this one.
"I'm disappointed we're not putting more points on the board, i'm disappointed that we're not getting the turnovers - all of that tells me that at 2-2 were are in pretty good shape considering the way we play."
