Break up the Cowboys.

Not only is Tony Romo healthy and spreading the ball around, but the Cowboys are making plays on both sides of the ball, and they lead the Saints 24-0 at halftime of Sunday Night Football.

Terrance Williams has a pair of touchdown receptions, and they’re basically making it look easy on offense, with 290 totals yards at the break.

But the Cowboys are actually playing some defense, too, limiting the Saints to 114.

With a number of injured starters back (including pass-rusher Anthony Spencer making his first appearance in a year), the Cowboys are actually playing competent defense.

The Justin Durant interception (off a Bruce Carter tip) was the highlight, but they’re playing the Saints solidly.

New Orleans is also dealing with some injuries, as left tackle Terron Armstead is out for the rest of the game with a concussion.
