It was a rout/blowout minus the score

[LittleBoyBlue]

Seattle scored what, 6 points on their own?

Should have been 37-6 or 43-3

I am in a different kind of shock today. The feeling is nostalgic.

Yes, but unfortunately i'm sure the talking head Cowboys haters will say look at the score, Dallas squeaked out a victory.

I don't think even a hater, that watched the game could say that. It was so lopsided.

When I saw us making mistakes, I didn't get mad. I feel like we can still win.
It's a great, old feeling.

The one thing going in our favor is people don't win in Seattle. We went in there and pulled a victory out. I think the media will finally say " The Cowboys played a top tier team and won... On the road.... In Seattle.... Now they play the Giants without Victor Cruse..... Can 6-1 be a possibility..."

Thats not the case yet. NFL Radio and ESPN Radio talking about the total domination of the Cowboys outside of a few bad special teams plays.

Classic let down game.........just sayin

I don't listen to their crap......but that's music to my ears.

It's crazy we broke the cardinal rule. No turnover or you lose, especially on the road. We gave so much and still took the game.

It's shockingly crazy good!

We basically handed the game to Seattle, but found a way to come back on the road in front of a hostile crowd. Maybe not having home field advantage is making us stronger. 3-0 on the road and no deficit or situation is too much to overcome.

 

[Bullflop]

Had it not been for the ST boo-boos, we might have deducted 17 pts from their score. It could easily have been something like 30-6 or so, and that's being conservative. Our Boys were ready for this one, no doubt about it.
Can you say total domination? Love the sound of that . . . even if it's a bit of a stretch -- lol.

You read my mind. I was thinking the exact same thing during the game. Seattle is the worst place for any team to play. Their fans are rabid, but Dallas (except for a few gaffes) were cool under the pressure. Maybe that's the silver lining that can be had from Cowboys fans re-selling their tickets for opposing team fans to invade Cowboys Stadium, lol.

Yes, but unfortunately i'm sure the talking head Cowboys haters will say look at the score, Dallas squeaked out a victory.

The two don't have to be exclusive I don't think. Dallas did dominate, and still had to squeak out the victory at the end.

Regardless of whether or not we should have been dominating on the scoreboard as well...the fact was that we weren't. Down by 3 with 3rd and 20 in your own end against the best defense in the league...to get a win after being in that position you pretty much have to squeak it out.

 

[Staubacher]

Tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1995!

 

[Frozen700]

No it wasn't.

1 Thing I will say, the old cowboys don't hand you victories and find a way to still win.

 

[Fletch]

I tried to really pay attention to the faces and mannerisms of the Seahawks as the game was unfolding. Seriously, they looked shocked, a little afraid, and bewildered--all rolled into one. It was priceless.
Seattle fans didn't even seem that deafening. It was weird. The Cowboys punched the Seahawks square in the mouth, and Seattle had no response. When was the last time we've been able to say that?

I don't think either apply.

I don't see players playing any different at home.
I dont see players going into games a gone with trap or let down game.

Pedal to the metal from now on.. If we hit a bump or pothole here and there that's fine... As long as it's not in the playoffs

True but then those folks did not give Dallas a snow balls chance in hell to win at all. Bottom line Dallas dominated the SB champs in their house. They came out and punched us in the mouth building a 10 point lead and Cowboys shook it off and then physically dominated the Hawks.

Yep, and their silence is deafening. That peanut gallery of mega-posters around here have sure been quiet lately.

Disagree. I don't think anyone will agree with "squeak it out". They couldn't breathe on offense. Our offense was suffocating them. It was like a Picasso yesterday!

I never felt like the boys were threatened. Ever during the game. Not once.

I felt more threatened against NO trying their comeback.

The Saints never got within 2 scores. The Cowboys were trailing with less than 5 minutes remaining. I can't buy into not feeling threatened when we were 3rd and 20. The threat might have come from our own mistakes earlier in the game, but they were close to losing regardless.
