Pickens fell short on slant, dropped on third down; two drops on explosive attempts.

Pickens ran the Cowboys' patented slant route on third down of the opening drive but came up just short of picking up the first down. Later, Pickens had a drop on third down (with an illegal shift penalty declined), contributing to another stalled drive. The source notes Pickens had two drops on explosive play attempts, reflecting a lack of explosive plays in Schottenheimer's game plan.
