The Cowboys turned the tide quickly, scoring just before the end of the half and again out of the break on an 85-yard drive capped off by a touchdown to Amari Cooper for a 21-7 lead. But the Redskins responded quickly, as Case Keenum extended the drive on fourth and six on a completion to Trey Quinn.

That play was pivotal in setting up the second scoring drive of the game for the Redskins as Keenum connected with Paul Richardson Jr. for a nine yard touchdown to cut the gap 21-14.
