So Much for the Guarantee

Niners fall to Cowboys 34-31

The Dallas Cowboys decided it's much better to be on the winning side of a dramatic comeback.

Keyshawn Johnson caught a 14-yard touchdown pass from Drew Bledsoe with 1:51 to play, and the Cowboys rallied from a 12-point deficit in the fourth quarter for a 34-31 victory against the San Francisco 49ers.

Johnson's score capped a precise 76-yard scoring drive by the Cowboys (2-1), who fell behind early but rallied late in their third consecutive nail-biting game of the season.

Bledsoe, the veteran acquired for his calm leadership as much as his arm, was 24-for-38 for 363 yards, passing Joe Montana for eighth place on the NFL's career yards passing list with his first 300-yard game since Sept. 14, 2003. Terry Glenn had 137 yards receiving and Julius Jones rushed for two scores.
