(AP) -- Tony Romo threw touchdown passes to Patrick Crayton and Deon Anderson and Dallas sacked Eli Manning eight times in a 20-8 win over the New York Giants. Rookie Tashard Choice put the exclamation point on the victory with his first NFL touchdown - a 38-yard scamper with just over two minutes left.
There had been reports of turmoil in the Cowboys locker room earlier in the week, apparently caused by certain receivers upset over the lack of passes being thrown their way. ESPN, citing anonymous sources, reported Romo had drawn up plays with tight end Jason Witten in private meetings. Romo completed passes to nine
different receivers including three to Terrell Owens and five to Witten.
The Giants are 11-and-3. They have already clinched the NFC East title, but could have secured a first-round playoff bye with a win. Dallas is assured a playoff spot by winning its last two games - at home to Baltimore, then at Philadelphia.
