Don't get me wrong, the run blocking was atrocious as they didn't get any push at the line. (8 and 9 man fronts clog holes, but don't stop the offensive lines push) If the line men can't get any push off the line of scrimmage, your running game is shot. It doesn't matter how many men are in the box.

Dallas didn't give up any sacks and thats great even though Seattle's first team didn't play much. I saw some Redskin fan spewing garbage about how Seattle's defensive line stinks and the Cowboys couldn't run against it. 
Some people are just itching to look stupid.... I wish I had had time to show him the error of his ways and expose him for what he is. A homer fan blinded by homerism.
