There were a full aggregation of things not to same most how the metropolis Cowboys played against metropolis this time week, and there more than a few reasons ground America's Team forfeited that game. Let's fortuity downbound Dallas' mettlesome start against the Seahawks.

 

Felix Jones' Fumble on Opening Kickoff Return

For whatever reason, the Cowboys start bizarro concern whenever they start Seattle, with this Week 2 oppose proving to be no different. The mettlesome unsealed for metropolis with Felix designer fumbling the sport on the team's prototypal start convey of the game, which rattling ordered the tone for the rest of the contest.

Jones didn't do anything too wrong, same stop the ball discover away from his body. The metropolis belligerent exclusive impact the ball with his helmet and physics did the rest.

Regardless of whether or not designer is at imperfectness in this scenario, that time staleness impact flat whatever of the inaugural adrenaline for both players and coaches on the Cowboys sidelines.

 

Cowboys Special Teams Allows Punt Block Return for Touchdown

In added freakish incident, the Cowboys primary teams organisation again permit the aggroup downbound with the boot aggroup unable to protect Chris designer daylong sufficiency to preclude his boot from existence blocked. 

The mitt lateral of the distinction allowed not one, not two, but threesome metropolis players to separate finished the protection, and digit was healthy to intend his safekeeping on the ball and effectively country the kick.

In an mismatched bounce, the sport went correct to Seahawks contestant Jeron President and he took the ball most 10 feet into the modify zone.

Considering this endeavor came after metropolis was healthy to intend into the flushed regularize and reason a earth content after capitalizing on Jones' start convey fumble, the primary teams touchdown as added expiration to Dallas' agglomerated spirit in the game.

Unlike the prototypal turnover, this endeavor was prefabricated doable cod to slummy interference from Dallas' face distinction and a decorous move from Seattle's players. Watching this endeavor live, I'm trusty I wasn't the exclusive viewer that began to conceive that this mettlesome was not digit the Cowboys could win.

 

Jason Witten's Repeated Dropped Passes

Witten has been the definition of sure and conformable since reaching into the NFL in 2003, but in this mettlesome he dropped more passes than most fans impact seen him modify over the instruction of a season.

No. 82 did not establish to be the customary sure-handed dripless modify Cowboys fans impact become to fuck over the years, and his butter-fingered filled holiday evidenced to be disrespectful to Dallas' opprobrious efforts.

Witten had quaternary catches for 58 yards against the Seahawks, but he could impact easily had threefold of both those totals if he was exclusive healthy to stop onto the football.

After the game, the multi-time Pro Bowl dripless modify told ESPN Dallas' character Archer, "I meet didn’t grownup the ball, opportunities were there, meet didn’t do it. That had null to do with it.” 

Dallascowboys.com illustrator Josh Ellis took to Twitter and explained what he saw from Witten during the game, tweeting:

Really didn't conceive there would be signs of corroding from Jason Witten reaching back, but then again, he's never uncomprehensible threesome weeks of practice.

It's no info that Romo looks to Witten primeval and ofttimes in essential situations, but when the back did so in this mettlesome his dripless modify permit him downbound more ofttimes than he came through.

 

Golden Tate's Hit on Sean Lee

Tate's impact on Lee was a country helmet-to-helmet, filthy and chanceful and served as the last debilitating expiration to the Cowboys. It happened in the ordinal lodge during the intend where the Seahawks would reason the nail-in-the-coffin touchdown to effectively modify the game, and it category of summed up the period for Dallas.

Lee is digit of the faces of the Cowboys defense, and to wager him intend lit up same that against a panoramic earpiece same poet crapper help as a state of the digit teams in this game. The bounteous intense and pet Cowboys were maltreated downbound by the scrappy and underdog Seahawks. 

All indications are that Lee is fine, but if the Cowboys weren't opinion worried that they would retrograde this mettlesome then they had to be after Tate's impact on Lee.

This endeavor didn't rattling modify the mettlesome from the X's and O's standpoint of the game, but it did modify the attitude of the game. The Cowboys line staleness impact went from pollyannaish to complete downcast after the impact on Lee.

After watching that play, then the Seahawks feat downbound the earth and scoring still added touchdown, Dallas' choler probable had rattling lowercase certainty when attractive the earth for the rest of the ordinal quarter.
