Cowboys at Redskins game day: A wild finish and a 19-16 Dallas victory

Final
Toss those first 58 minutes out the window, because all anyone will remember is the final two (1:45 to be exact), starting from the point when DeSean Jackson tried to make something happen on a punt return and instead fumbled the ball, and seemingly the game, to Dallas.

But in a development fitting the quality of the rest of the game, Dallas scored a touchdown quickly instead of milking the clock and kicking the field goal that would have given it a 12-9 win. Trailing 16-9 with 1:09 left, Kirk Cousins marched Washington down the field for the first time all night, connecting with Jackson from 28 yards out with 44 seconds left.
