• Threw for 374 yards against Chicago (9/19) to give him the then second-most single-game passing yards<br />

in his career behind the 392 he had at the N.Y. Giants (12/6/09). His 51 attempts were the second-most<br />

time he eclipsed 400 passing yards in a game. It was the first time a Dallas quarterback crossed the 400-yard<br />

mark since Aikman threw for 455 against Minnesota (11/26/98). Romo’s 406 tied Meredith (at Washington,<br />

11/13/66) for the third-most passing yards by a quarterback in a game in franchise history as he became just<br />

the third different Cowboys passer to eclipse 400 yards in a game. His three touchdown passes extended his<br />

streak of consecutive games with a touchdown pass to 16 to tie Aikman for the second-longest streak in franchise<br />

history and marked his 18th career game with three-or-more touchdown passes, breaking a tie with<br />

Staubach for the second-most games with three-or-more touchdowns. Romo’s 406 yards also upped his club<br />

record of career 300-yard outings to 26, while his 46 pass attempts gave him 2,031 for his career - the fifth<br />

Dallas passer to reach 2,000 career attempts. His 406 passing yards and Felix Jones’ 109 rushing yards<br />

marked the first time in club history that Dallas had a 400-yard passer along with a 100-yard rusher in a game.<br />

pass to 17, tying his club record as well as give him 19 career games with three-or-more touchdown passes<br />

and rushed three times for 31 yards.<br />
