Cowboys got this one. Seahawks predictably up and down so far this season. Will be a fight for them to make the playoffs in the NFC.

Media will do it's thing but so what? Cowboys impress no one until they do it when it counts.

Not when the Packers win in the last second, and Manning is two TDs away from the record.

Troutman, it's the Cowboys, holders of the best record in the NFL and a road win against the Super Bowl champs. It's gonna be over the top this week.

Media will be annoying, but it's the lesser of two evils when the other side is the outwardly cockiest team in the league and also Calgary's largest NFL fanbase.

Love how they kept going at Sherman, guess he's not infallible like he thinks. I don't understand why teams avoid him so much. Only reason this game even went to the wire is because the Cowboys pulled a Cowboys mid-3rd Q.

Posting from CLink. What a ride. Too loud to hear yourself think.

Cowboys OL is unbelievably good. Wow. The only reason the game was close was the Hawks special teams. Cowboys got away with a lot of contact on the receivers, but they wanted it more. Seahawks OL wasn't up to the challenge

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, we've had a great trip!

That Packers Fins game was something else at the end. Rodgers is incredible some times.

How bout them Cowboys?!?

I predicted a 7-9 season. I think I'm going to be wrong, and I'm OK with it!

The score actually flattered the Seahawks. Without those turnovers, this could have been a blowout.

Seahawks got away with a lot too, as they usually do at home. Apparently hitting a QB while he's already down on the ground is fair game in Seattle.

Both teams got away with things and in no way was I saying that was why the Hawks last. I agree with you, the score was flattering to Seattle. My brother is bummed out the they lost. I'm just glad to have been able to be there

It has a lot to do with Jerry Jones.

Even with the poor play calling, bad decisions by Wilson, drops, porous defense and Dallas good game planning, it came down to Williams with a great catch on third and long with 3 mins to go. A few inches and him out of bounds, maybe the result goes the other way.
Seattle clearly not ready for that test, injuries (Chancellor not 100%, Miller, then Wagner and Maxwell during the game) didn't help.
6 division games to go, and a lot of season to go, but looks more like the winner of NFC West may be the only playoff team.

I don't know about that. Green Bay/Detroit and Dallas/Philly look to be the only other challengers for Wild Card spots to the NFC West teams. Still a good chance that the NFC West will feature a wild card team.

NFC South is the only division definitely only sending 1 team to the playoffs. Then you have 5 spots for: Dallas, Philly, Green Bay, Chicago, Detroit, Arizona, San Francisco, Seattle. So it'll be 3 guaranteed spots and 5 teams fighting for 2 spots. Looking again like a 10-6 team might miss the playoffs from the NFC.

Lovie Smith may be an inept offensive playcaller and questionable hire, but the talent in Tampa Bay is attrociously bad, Jacksonville bad.

Sean Payton couldnt coach that team to a winning record
