He led Dallas to an 8-8 record, narrowly missing the playoffs and an NFC East Division title in his first two full seasons as head coach (2011 and 2012). Since the 2007 season, Garrett has been the Cowboys offensive coordinator, and in 2008, he was assigned the additional duties of being the club s assistant head coach. Under Garrett, the Dallas offense has reached high levels of productivity in several categories, and the unit has finished among the NFL s top-10 in total offense four times: 2012 (sixth), 2010 (10th), 2009 (2nd), and 2007 (2nd). From the start of the 2007 season, the club has averaged 24.1 points-per-game and total yards-per-outing. The team has set single-season records in a handful of categories, including topping 6,000 net yards for the first times in franchise history (2009-6,390 and ,008).

Prior to being named head coach in Philadelphia, Reid spent seven years as an assistant coach with the Green Bay Packers.

With a halftime deficit, Romo came out of the intermission and went 10-of-10 for 169 yards with three touchdowns. It was the second time in his career he completed 100% of his second half passes. The first time was at Arizona (11/12/06) where he went 10-of-10 for 144 yards with one touchdown. In recent history of the organization, only Randall Cunningham (at Arizona, 9/10/00) completed all of his passes through one half. It was in the first half of the loss where he completed all 12 of his passes for 141 yards and two touchdowns. Besides the three flawless halfs mentioned above, there have been nine times in recent team history that a quarterback completed all but one pass (10-or-more attempts). The most recent was Kyle orton (nine-of-10) against Chicago (10/1/12). Romo accomplished the feat three times and Troy Aikman did it five times. Romo had flashes of perfection in the 2013 opener, completing 13 straight passes in the second quarter, finishing the frame 16-of-19.

He has provided Dallas with the full package at tight end. After nine-plus seasons, Witten has caught 814 passes for 9,018 yards and 46 touchdowns. He is the third all-time leading tight end in career receptions and receiving yards. To open the 2011 season, Witten rattled off 110 yards - his 13th career 100-yard outing to become the seventh tight end in league history to reach 7,000 receiving yards. His work through the 2011 season allowed him to crack the top-five on the tight end receiving yards list. Witten opened the 2012 season at the N.y. Giants (9/5) with two catches for 10 yards to pass Jackie Smith (7,918) for fourth on the list. Despite Against Tampa Bay (9/23), Witten moved into third all-time. He then crossed the 8,000-yard mark against Chicago (10/1) with his 15th career 100-yard game. He opened the 2013 season by crossing the 9,000-yard threshold. By mid-november of 2011, Witten passed Newsome (662) for third on the all-time receptions list. With four catches at Seattle (9/16) in 2012, he became the third tight end in league history with 700 career catches. His seven catches in the finale at Washington (12/30) made him the third tight end in league history to reach 800 career receptions: NFL Career Receptions NFL Career Receiving Leaders (TEs) Yards Leaders (TEs) 1.

He has appeared in the most Pro Bowls by a Cowboys tight end (eight, seven consecutive and 2012), is tops on the club s all-time receptions chart and second on the receiving yards chart. Proving himself as a reliable target, Witten has 814 career receptions for 9,018 yards. In 2012 he took the top spot on the club s receptions chart from Michael Irvin at Atlanta (11/4) after a seven-catch, 51-yard game. Witten took 151 games to reach the top of the team s receptions chart which was faster than Irvin (159). When compared to the two other NFL tight ends with at least 750 catches - Tony Gonzalez and Shannon Sharpe - Witten also reached the mark faster - Gonzalez (163 games), Sharpe (169). A favorite target of Tony Romo, Witten accounts for 515 catches and 5,815 yards of Romo s 2,097 completions and 25,373 yards. Both of Witten s numbers are more than any other player that has caught a pass from Romo. Witten caught 13 passes for 112 yards - both team highs - and a score - against Chicago (10/1). His 13 catches were third in his career, tied for third among any Cowboys pass catcher and tied for eighth by an NFL tight end. He then bettered that with a clubrecord 18-catch game against the N.y.

13 88, 88, 88 With the selection of Dez Bryant in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys added to their lineage of homegrown talent at wide receiver. Bryant was issued the jersey number 88 to follow in the footsteps of two of the previous 88s in club history - Drew Pearson ( ) and Michael Irvin ( ). His progress as a rookie was slowed after landing on IR with an ankle injury suffered at Indianapolis (12/5/10). He returned to open the 2011 season in style, and finished his second pro season with 63 catches for 928 yards and nine touchdowns. In 2012 Bryant notched his second career 100-yard game with a career-high 105 yards against Chicago (10/1). At Baltimore (10/14) Bryant had a career-best 13 receptions which also tied the third-most receptions in a game in franchise history. Bryant bettered his career-best with a 110-yard performance against the N.y. Giants (10/28). He then added 12 catches for a new career-best 145 yards against Cleveland (11/18) and tied that same yardage total on eight catches against Washington (11/22). Bryant upped his career-best once more with a 224-yard game against New orleans (12/23). He did it on nine catches with a pair of touchdowns. His 224 yards were the 10th 200-yard game in franchise history and were the fourth-most yards in a game in team history.

15 HIGH-OCTANE OFFENSE Since Jason Garrett s arrival in Dallas as the club s offensive coordinator and eventual head coach, the Cowboys offense has put up some of its best net yardage output in franchise history. The 2009 club has the single-season franchise yards mark, the 2011 team has the second and the 2012 squad the third. Additionally, in his first year (2007), the club now ranks eighth all time, followed by the 2010 squad in ninth. Below is a year-by-year glimpse at the Cowboys yardage output in each of Garrett s season with the club: GAME-WINNING KICKS In his rookie season, Dan Bailey was called upon six times to win or tie the game with his foot. Four times he came through for Dallas. Bailey s four game-winning field goals were the most by a Dallas Cowboy in a single season and the most by a rookie in NFL history. In 2012 Bailey had four opportunities to do the same, and he came through with 0:02 left in the fourth quarter against Cleveland (11/18) to send the game in overtime, then sealed it with a 38-yard kick with 6:07 remaining in the extra period. The second was at Cincinnati when he hit a 40-yarder as time expired and the third was against Pittsburgh (12/16) with a 21-yarder in overtime. In team history, there have now been 35 instances in which a kicker was true on a game-winning field goal with 2:00-or-less left in the fourth quarter or in overtime. Bailey has rang true with seven game-winners to tie Rafael Septien for the most in team history: Dallas Cowboys Game-Winning Field Goals Opp, Date Yards Score Time Left Greene PIT, 9/17/ :00 10/29/ :23 11/13/ :19 11/7/ :53 9/16/ :26 Herrera STL, 11/13/ :04 10/26/ :01 Herrera BAL, 9/26/ :03 10/15/ :28-OT 9/2/ :16 11/4/ :03 Septien TB,10/9/ :38-OT Septien NO, 10/21/ :42-OT Septien NE, 11/22/ :04 10/19/ :02 1/2/ :16-OT Boniol NYG, 12/17/ :00 11/10/ :00 Cunningham WAS, 11/16/ :04 10/1/ :08-OT Seder WAS, 10/15/ :00 9/29/ :00 9/15/ :04-OT Cundiff PHI, 10/12/ :11 Cortez NYG, 10/16/ :47-OT 12/2/ :06 10/8/ :02 12/5/ :01-OT Buehler WAS, 12/19/ :55 9/18/ :10-OT Bailey WAS, 9/26/ :52 11/20/ :47-OT Bailey MIA, 11/24/ :00 Bailey CLE, 11/18/ :07-OT 12/9/ :00 Bailey PIT, 12/16/ :36-OT BAILEY S BOOTS Dan Bailey closed out the 2012 season converting 29-of-31 field goal tries (93.5%).

In both games against the Eagles in 2012, Bailey converted five PAT attempts, tying the most in his career and tied for the fourth-highest PAT figure in a game in Cowboys history. TURNOVER TURNAROUND The Dallas Cowboys opened the 2013 season against the N.Y. Giants (9/8) forcing six turnovers. The Dallas defense took the ball away from the Giants on each of the first three series of the game - two interceptions and a fumble. Dallas three takeaways in the first quarter of the opener was the first time in club history the team had three takeaways in the first quarter. It was the ninth time Dallas had three in a single quarter and first time since the fourth quarter against Buffalo (11/13/11). The Cowboys added three more takeaways through the second half - an interception and two fumbles - giving the club six to tie the most takeaways in a single game in the last 25 years of team history, and it was the 24th time in club history a Dallas team forced six-or-more turnovers. The last time Dallas reached six was at Washington (12/14/03). Dallas three picks of Eli Manning on the night were the most in a game for the club since the three against Buffalo (11/13/11). The above mentioned feats all came on the heels of a 2012 season in which the club forced 16 takeaways the entire season. NOT SO MARGINAL The Dallas Cowboys forced six takeaways in the season-opener against the N.Y. Giants (9/8), and the club suffered just one turnover in the game. Dallas +5 turnover differential in the game marked the 16th time in club history the team had a +5-or-better turnover differential. It was the first since the +5 they had at Miami (9/16/07). Only three other times in the franchise s history did the club better the +5 margin vs. San Francisco (10/12/80) and +6 at New England (9/21/81) and vs. Washington (9/9/85). ONE OUT OF EVERY THREE... Since arriving in Dallas in 2005, no other defensive player in the league has racked up more sacks than DeMarcus Ware s Over that same span, the Dallas Cowboys have amassed sacks - third in the league. Ware s sacks over the last eight seasons represents just about one-third of the clubs total sacks: 15
