| 4-9-DAL15 (4Q: 00:39) Pat Haden pass fell incomplete, intended for WR Duriel Harris. DE Mark Gastineau hurried the quarterback into a bad throw. The defense looked very familiar with that play. The ball goes over on downs. |
| 1-10-DAL15 (4Q: 00:30) Mike Loyd dropped to one knee for -2 yards. |
| Final Score: Minnesota Vikings 24, Dallas Cowboys 21 |
