Dallas is able to overcome Cam Newton and the Panthers with two fourth-quarter field goals in a 19-14 road victory.



It wasn't the most impressive win for the Dallas Cowboys, but this wasn't about style points.
The Cowboys just needed to figure out a way to get out of Carolina with a win on Sunday, and they did that. The 19-14 victory over the Carolina Panthers moves them to 3-3 and holds off bedlam in Arlington for another week.

It didn't always look promising for Dallas, which trailed this game by a point midway through the fourth quarter. Facing third-and-9 from the Panthers 15 with 3:39 to play, Jason Garrett elected to take the ball out Tony Romo's hands, calling a draw play to Phillip Tanner. It was an interesting decision by Garrett, who put his trust in his defense rather than his quarterback.

Rob Ryan's unit made Garrett look smart. The defense forced a four-and-out on the Panthers' next drive, setting up another short field goal by Bailey to complete the scoring.

Problems still exist: Dez Bryant had yet another end zone drop. Phil Costa's season could be over. And the defense was lucky to be granted a timeout when they fell asleep on a key fourth-down play late in the fourth quarter.

But a win is a win. The Cowboys won't apologize for it

Amare Out for 2-3 weeks



Amare Stoudemire will be out two to three weeks with a ruptured popliteal cyst behind his left knee, the New York Knicks announced after Sunday afternoon's practice at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, N.Y.

Stoudemire returned to New York City on Sunday morning to get a re-evaluation of his knee, where he suffered a bone bruise Oct. 10 during practice. An MRI then revealed the latest injury.

The left knee is the same one he had microfracture surgery on in October 2005, when he was a member of the Phoenix Suns. While he missed basically the entire 2005-06 campaign, he came back stronger as ever in the following seasons.

Stoudemire is no stranger to injuries. He's had chronic knee problems, a partially detached retina in his right eye and lower back issues, which started in the 2011 NBA playoffs and continued toward the end of last season.

Stoudemire was said to be in top shape coming into the season, hardly missing a routine of two-a-days during the summer. Also, coach Mike Woodson has raved about Stoudemire's conditioning level in training camp.

Now, the Knicks again will likely be without their starting power forward during a key stretch -- this time starting Nov. 1 to tip off the season, which includes matchups against the Brooklyn Nets, Miami Heat and Philadelphia 76ers (twice).

Cruuzin to the End Zone As Eli,Cruz Pull Comeback Victory Against The Skins 27-23



 Eli Manning had an off day, but he saved his best for last, throwing a 77-yard touchdown strike to Victor Cruz with 1:13 left to lift the Giants over the Redskins 27-23 in a crucial NFC East showdown. 

What it means: The Giants avoided what could have been a disastrous 0-3 division start. They needed an exciting comeback to do so, though. 

After watching Robert Griffin III convert a fourth-and-10 by scrambling all over the place and then later a 24-yard scramble that helped set up a touchdown pass to Santana Moss, the Giants answered with Manning's bomb to Cruz for the win. 

Second-half defense: Chris Canty returned off the physically unable to perform list and started the game at defensive tackle. But the Giants struggled to stop the run early on. 

Rookie Alfred Morris rushed for 94 yards, and the Redskins gained 146 yards on the ground in the first half alone. Griffin also broke a handful of runs for large gains. 

But in the second half, the Giants stepped up and forced a Morris fumble and then intercepted Griffin on back-to-back Redskins possessions. 

Midway through the fourth, the Giants stopped a Redskins drive as Jason Pierre-Paul forced a Griffin fumble on his second sack of the game. When the Redskins got the ball back at the Giants' 32 on the next play with an interception, the Giants' defense held the Redskins to a field goal. 

Griffin beat the Giants' defense on what appeared to be a game-winning drive, but Manning answered. RG3 then could not duplicate his scoring drive, as the Giants' defense came up with a game-clinching fumble recovery. 

Linval Joseph had a strong game with a forced fumble and fumble recovery, and Justin Tuck registered his first sack and celebratory bow of the season. 

Off Eli: Manning was off. He missed a wide-open Cruz in the end zone in the first half and later overthrew Cruz on a bomb early in the third. 

Then he threw an interception inside the Giants' 20 on a pass that appeared to be intended for Martellus Bennett. And then up 20-13 with seven minutes left following a huge Griffin fumble, Manning threw a pass on first down right to linebacker Rob Jackson for an interception at the Giants' 32-yard line. 

Manning salvaged the day with his big touchdown at the end. 

Brown returns: Andre Brown returned from a concussion and scored on a 1-yard touchdown leap. Ahmad Bradshaw entered the game red-hot with two straight 100-yard games, but Brown got the goal-line carries in the first half. Bradshaw carried the ball at the goal line in the second half and scored on a 1-yard touchdown. 

What's next: The Giants stay in the NFC East and travel to Dallas. It's a critical game since the Giants already lost to Dallas at home in the season opener.

Here are five things to watch Sunday when the New York Giants host the Washington Redskins Sunday at MetLife Stadium


1. Can the Giants maintain discipline on defense? Head coach Tom Coughlin talked early in the week about the Giants needing to do this against Robert Griffin III. We know this has been an issue for this defense. We have seen it this season against running backs LeSean Mccoy and Trent Richardson, giving up the contain on the back side. We have seen it in previous years against Michael Vick, allowing him outside despite knowing that's the last place you want him to go. RGIII will kill the Giants with his speed if they decide to freelance and not play their responsibilities.

2. Aerial assault: The Redskins are surrendering a league-worst 328 yards per game against the pass. Expect Eli Manning, Victor Cruz and Co. to try and torch the Washington secondary.

3. Which Giants' team will show up? Will we see the dominant Giants' team we saw against the San Francisco 49ers and Carolina Panthers? Will we see the mystifying giants' team we saw against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Cleveland Browns? The Giants need an NFC East victory, and hopefully that motivates them to put their best foot forward.

4. Who carries the mail? Ahmad Bradshaw has 57 carries the past two weeks. Head coach Tom Coughlin keeps saying he is fine with that, and Bradshaw says the same, but the reality is it's not fine. Bradshaw is again having foot issues, and he need some help. Andre Brown is back this week, and David Wilson is chomping at the bit for more opportunities. The distribution of snaps, and carries, will be interesting to watch.

5. Keep up the pressure: The Giants' pass rush finally showed up against the 49ers. Can they keep it up?

Jay-Z: The Power of Our Voice




In a new ad for the president’s reelection campaign, Jay-Z says President Obama brought hope to the country in 2008 and motivated people to vote for the first time. "For so long, there was this voice that was silenced out there as far as exercising your right to vote," Jay-Z says.

The commercial is mostly a shot of Jay-Z in jacket and tie, talking about the president and voting rights. But interspersed in the video are shots of last month's "Made in America" concerts where Jay-Z wore his Brooklyn Nets cap. The last scene, in fact, is a shot of Jay-Z full face (and Nets cap) looking at the camera.

Jay-Z hosted a campaign fund-raiser for Obama last month at his 40-40 Club in Manhattan
