Romo shines as Cowboys win NFL opener

Tony Romo tossed three touchdown passes as the Dallas Cowboys defeated the defending Super Bowl champion New York Giants 24-17 in the NFL season opener on Wednesday.

The Giants celebrated their Super Bowl title before the game, but Romo and Co. had the last laugh as the quarterback threw for 307 yards and wide receiver Kevin Ogletree caught two touchdown passes.

"Our approach was to take it one play at a time," Romo said. "You have got to be able to execute plays and our team took that approach. It was exciting to see."
