Quarterback Tony Romo put a row with team-mate Terrell Owens behind him to throw two touchdown passes as the Dallas Cowboys beat the New York Giants 20-8.

Receiver Owens claimed Romo and tight-end Jason Witten had created plays without him. Romo tried to play down the rift and said: "It's just part of playing football. We have a lot of highly competitive individuals on this football team who want to win."

This was New York's second consecutive defeat and their coach Tom Coughlin said: "The offence played hard and didn't get anything done. I'm concerned about that."
