Cowboys and the Giants.



The Dallas Cowboys had a dramatic, intense win in the closing seconds over the New York Giants, and were greeted by Dez Bryant hopping around on one foot outside the locker room to congratulate them. As it turns out, all Bryant will be doing for a while is cheerleading.
Bryant, by far the team's best weapon for quarterback Tony Romo, suffered a broken bone in his foot according to Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. Jones said Bryant is going to miss four-to-six weeks, Yahoo's Charles Robinson reported.
Bryant kept it positive after the game, giving praise to quarterback Tony Romo, who wears No. 9 and led a last-minute, game-winning drive.
Robinson also reported that rookie defensive end Randy Gregory has a high ankle sprain that will keep him out four-to-six weeks.
Bryant's loss in particular is a big blow to a team that has Super Bowl hopes. Terrance Williams becomes the Cowboys' top receiver, though that's a big step up for him. The Cowboys will have to lean even more heavily on their run game, which got just 80 yards on 23 attempts in its first game without DeMarco Murray.
The Cowboys effectively chose Bryant over Murray this offseason, because elite receivers like Bryant are hard to find. Bryant signed a five-year, $70 million deal this offseason after Dallas gave him the franchise tag.
Bryant had 56 touchdowns in his first five seasons, and the Cowboys can't replace his production. But they'll have to figure it out until sometime in October when Bryant can return.
