Glendale, AZ – LaRod Stephens-Howling turned a screen pass winning 52-yard touchdown in overtime, as the Arizona Cardinals 13.
The past two weeks, the Cowboys relied on the leg of rookie kicker Dan Bailey to emerge with an overtime win at Washington and a last-second triumph over Miami on Thanksgiving.
He was in position for another game-winning kick after Dez Bryant's 15-yard reception on 3rd-and-11 gave Dallas a first down at the Arizona 31. With seven seconds left in the fourth quarter and the teams deadlocked at 13-13, Bailey drilled a 49-yard field goal. However, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett called timeout. Bailey's second attempt fell short and sent the game to overtime.
Arizona got the ball to start the extra session and a returning Kevin Kolb hit Andre Roberts on a slant for a 14-yard gain on first down. Later, a defensive pass interference penalty placed the ball at the Arizona 34. After a three-yard run by Beanie Wells, Kolb, who missed the previous four games with a turf toe injury, threw a 16-yard pass to Roberts. A false start penalty moved the Cardinals back to their own 48, but Kolb completed a short toss to Stephens-Howling and he ran through the Cowboys defense all the way to the end zone.
