Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys  (5-2) offense looked very good for the third straight week as they crushed the Seattle Seahawks (2-5) on Sunday.  Romo did not throw and interception and finished the game with three touchdowns and 256 yards on 21/36 attempts.  He did lose a fumble though, so it wasn’t a turnover free day for Romo.  The Cowboys running attack was very effective against the Seahawks, with Marion Barber and Felix Jones combining for 92 yards on 22 carries (4.2 avg).  They also got 32 more yards from Tashard Choice, Tony Romo, and Miles Austin.  Austin continued his great wide-receiver play, leading the team with five catches for 61 yards and a touchdown.  He did make his first mistake of the season, fumbling on an end-around, but he recovered it himself.

The Cowboys defense did a great job making sure the Seahawks could not keep up with the Cowboys high scoring offense.  They forced two fumbles and sacked Seahawks’ quarterback Matt Hasselbeck three times. Terence Newman and Bradie James forced the fumbles and Victor Butler and Orland Scandrick recovered them.  The Cowboys also got a huge play from their special teams, when Patrick Crayton returned a punt 82 yards for a touchdown to put the Cowboys up 35-10 going into the 4th quarter.  This was a good all-around game for the Cowboys.
