With a wild finish capping an otherwise dull game filled with turnovers, punts and penalties, the Dallas Cowboys beat the Redskins, 19-16, at Washington on Monday night on Dan Bailey’s 54-yard field goal with nine seconds to play.
After combining to score 18 points in the first 58 ½ minutes, the teams put up 17 points in the last 90 seconds.
Dallas scored on a 6-yard Darren McFadden run with 1 minute 14 seconds remaining. DeSean Jackson’s fumble during a punt return had set the Cowboys up at the Washington 15.
But Jackson caught a 28-yard touchdown pass from Kirk Cousins with 44 seconds left to even the score at 16-16 before Bailey’s winning kick.
