Romo Knows How He Has To Redeem Himself

IRVING (AP)  The Dallas Cowboys' next game can't come soon enough for quarterback Tony Romo.

Romo knows the only way to make up for his costly fourth-quarter turnovers in the season opener is to "play really good football going forward for an extended period of time.''

The first chance to do that comes Sunday when the Cowboys play in San Francisco.

In the final 10 minutes last Sunday night at the New York Jets, Romo lost a fumble 3 yards from the end zone and threw an interception that set up a winning field goal for the Jets after they had trailed by 14 points in the fourth quarter.

Romo said after practice Wednesday it's a situation he will learn from, and that it won't happen again.
