FRISCO -- Not much came from last season other than the knowledge that the Cowboys can't win without Tony Romo.
So while anticipation was high entering this season, expectations weren't. Forget what club officials said publicly. The overriding sense was that this team would again struggle until its veteran quarterback returned.
Imagine their surprise now that the Cowboys carry a 3-1 record into the second weekend of October.
