GRADING THE BOYS: SEAHAWKS 13 COWBOYS 10

[size=-1]Star-Telegram[/size]

Offense: D

DQuarterback Drew Bledsoe had his worst game, passing for only 136 yards and being intercepted twice. He wasn't helped by the conservative game plan or the blocking woes of Rob Petitti.

Defense: C

CStatistically speaking, the defense played well enough to win. It shut down running back Shaun Alexander and harassed quarterback Matt Hasselbeck. But it could have won the game if not for a late collapse.

Special Teams: D

DJose Cortez's missed field goal can partially be blamed on a high snap. J.P. Ladouceur also had a bad snap on a punt. Tyson Thompson nearly sparked the Cowboys to victory with a 39-yard kickoff return in the fourth quarter.

Overall: D

DThe Cowboys played not to lose on offense, and it backfired as they dropped out of first place in the NFC East. They were denied their first three-game winning streak since 2003.

The fact is this isn't a very good football team.

Holding the number one offense in the NFL to 10 points on the road is an A regardless of how bad they feel that we lost. I know they scored 13 but I don't count that last field goal since the defense wasn't involved in that one at all.

The fact is this isn't a very good football team.

The league then doesn't have any very good football teams. Dallas beat the Giants who beat Denver. Dallas beat Philly. This is an average team in a league full of average teams.

We are a jose cortez miss from all the mediots calling us the class of the nfc. We were missing our rb, 3rd wr and lt on offense, and dat on defense. Does our defense collapse? Yes. SHould that have ever been a factor? No.

Is cundiff healthy?

Giving the defense a C is ridiculous. The defense was fantastic yesterday. The offense and Jose Cortez didn't get the job done.
