Game 12: Cowboys vs. Seahawks

The Cowboys Thanksgiving game... I have so many memories about the Thanksgiving game, being with family and watching the Cowboys while munching down on too much food.

The Cowboys are 7-4 and the Seahawks are 2-9... do I really need to break this one down? No, but I will do it anyway. The Seahawks have lost their last four games and the two wins have come against St. Louis and the 49ers. The Cowboys have won three of their last four, with the loss coming against the NY Giants.

The Cowboys offense hasn't necessarily been on target, but they have done enough to grab the win. They can still be a bit sloppy to win this one, though, as you don't have to be perfect to win against the Seahawks. The Seahawks have an awful offense (ranked 31st out of 32) and just as bad defense (ranked 29th).

Seahawks to Watch:

• Matt Hasselbeck: QB Rating - 54.9; 87-171 (50.9%) for 929 yards, 5 TDs and 9 Ints
• Julius Jones: 141 carries for 637 yards and 2 TDs
• John Carlson: 32 catches for 351 yards and 3 TDs
• Josh Wilson: 45 KR for 1,156 yards; 56 tackles and 2 Ints (1 TD)
• Julian Peterson: 64 tackles and 5 sacks

Man, am I pulling at strings to just put something on here for the Seahawks.

Cowboys to Watch:

• Tony Romo: QB Rating - 101.8; 170-266 (63.9%) for 2,228 yards, 18 TDs and 7 Ints
• Marion Barber: 215 carries for 838 yards with 6 TDs and 2 lost fumbles
• Terrell Owens: 47 catches for 718 yards and 7 TDs
• Jason Witten: 49 catches for 594 yards and 2 TDs
• Patrick Crayton: 29 catches for 396 yards and 3 TDs
• DeMarcus Ware: 58 tackles with 12 sacks
• Jay Ratliff: 34 tackles with 6 sacks

The Cowboys are going to tear up the Seahawks. Look for a couple of sacks by Ware and a couple of TDs (probably three) thrown by Romo. Barber to carry for 80+ yards and TO to have a 100+ yard day. This will be one to sit back and enjoy with a turkey leg in hand.

Forecast: Cowboys win it, just in case I hadn't already said that... with a score of 38-16.
