PITTSBURGH - Dez Bryant headed up the visitor's tunnel at Heinz Field Sunday evening with a somber look on his face. The Cowboys had just wrapped up their biggest win of the season, an improbable 35-30 come-from-behind victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. But other things were on the star receiver's mind.
Bryant's father, MacArthur Hatton, died of an illness Saturday.
Bryant responded by turning in his best game of the last two years.
A week after catching only one pass for 19 yards, Bryant caught six passes for 116 yards and a touchdown.
"He was out there balling for his dad," fellow receiver Cole Beasley said.
