Seahawks vs. Cowboys: 5 questions about Dallas for Wild Card game
By Lee Vowell
In the week three matchup between the Seahawks and Dallas, Seattle decided to get back to running the ball. That was a big reason Seattle won. Chris Carson ran the ball 32 times for a bit over 100 yards. It was effective running. Is Carson one of the Seahawks that should most worry the Cowboys?
Seahawks that worry
12th Man Rising: Which Seahawks most worry you going into Saturday’s game?
Mullenax: First and foremost, Russell Wilson. The veteran quarterback is able to do something that has mostly eluded Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott his entire career. And that’s the ability to lift the team to victories despite a lack of talent around him. I think a player like Wilson gives you a chance to win every game. Defensively, Dallas has struggled to get a helmet on opposing middle linebackers. Bobby Wagner could be the key to stopping the Cowboys’ rushing attack, forcing Prescott to pass more than the team wants him too.
How can Cowboys improve?
12th Man Rising: Win or lose on Saturday, what are a couple of things that the Cowboys need to do this offseason to be even better in 2019?
Mullenax: As fans of the Seahawks are well aware, the Cowboys were interested in free safety Earl Thomas until his injury. Dallas needs a talented safety roaming the middle, making plays. That’s an area they’ll address. And despite tight end Blake Jarwin‘s breakout game in Week 17, the Cowboys still need to find themselves a more traditional in-line tight end like Jason Witten this offseason.
