The Dallas Cowboys expect a banged-up Tony Romo to play this afternoon, but they could be without leading receiver Jason Witten when they host the Oakland Raiders for the first time in 11 years.

NFL football betting lines have the Cowboys listed as 14-point home favorites.

Romo has two touchdowns and two interceptions the last two games after having eight and one during the preceding four-game win streak. He completed 15 of 27 passes for 158 yards Sunday, capping a nine-play, 60-yard drive with a 10-yard touchdown to Patrick Crayton with 2:41 left for the winning score.

Romo is 3-0 on Thanksgiving with 10 touchdowns, two interceptions, and a 71.4 completion percentage.

Oakland ended its three-game skid behind Bruce Gradkowski, who finished an 80-yard drive by completing a tying 29-yard touchdown pass to rookie Louis Murphy with 33 seconds to go.

The Raiders have won three straight to take a 6-3 lead in the all-time series.
