Garrett says season isn't yet lost for last-place Cowboys

The most important position in the NFL is often the most vulnerable. Just look at the Dallas Cowboys, who have imploded since quarterback Tony Romo went down with a broken collarbone in Week 2. By the time Romo returns, it might be too late for the Cowboys.
