Seahawks Vs Cowboys Game Thread

[ShotgunDawg]

Game kicks off at 7:15

Goes without saying that tonight is an enormous night for Dak

Gonna be tough. Russell Wilson & the Seahawks know what they are doing in the playoffs.

[msstate7]

Cowboys defense has to slow down Seahawks' running game. If Seahawks can run, wilson will kill em off PA

[BeardoMSU]

Gonna be a good game. I hope Dallas' O-line shows up....

And speaking of that, if Dak can avoid the sack, he should be fine. His completion % has been great, but those have killed so many drives this season. Hopefully Zeke is big on 1st down tonight, too. When they stay ahead of the chains, Linehan's play calling actually doesn't resemble that of an invalid.

[ShotgunDawg]

BTW, Andrew Luck throws maybe the most catchable ball I've ever seen. Like a baby's butt on the WRs hands

[msstate7]

You don't watch many saints' games, huh?

[ShotgunDawg]

You don't watch many saints' games, huh?

Good point

[ShotgunDawg]

If Dak was missing the throws Watson is missing right now, the media would obliterate him

[msstate7]

Good point

Ha... subjective. I think rivers throws a really catchable ball too

[DownwardDawg]

If Dak was missing the throws Watson is missing right now, the media would obliterate him

Oh God, if Dak ever looked anything near as bad as Watson has looked in this game......it would be brutal!!!!!!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Oh God, if Dak ever looked anything near as bad as Watson has looked in this game......it would be brutal!!!!!!!

Yet you won't hear a word & Watson will be praised, due to him playing for Houston.

There are many perks to Dak's job as well. Just making a point of how different QBing the Cowboys is to every other team.

[msstate7]

Oh God, if Dak ever looked anything near as bad as Watson has looked in this game......it would be brutal!!!!!!!

Watson QB rating today = 69.7
Dak vs colts few weeks ago= 64.7

Colts defense is really good

[99jc]

If Dak was missing the throws Watson is missing right now, the media would obliterate him

I thought the same thing.

[ShotgunDawg]

Bill O'Brien's butt chin is a true wonder of the world.

I wonder if a golf tee would stand up in there?

[ShotgunDawg]

Watson QB rating today = 69.7
Dak vs colts few weeks ago= 64.7

Colts defense is really good

No doubt. I'm just not sure I've ever seen Dak miss wide open guys like Watson has today

[ShotgunDawg]

BTW, FWIW, the Colts on are on the cusp on being an absolutely bad ass football team

https://twitter.com/BrockESPN/status/1081678984826351617

[DownwardDawg]

Watson QB rating today = 69.7
Dak vs colts few weeks ago= 64.7

Colts defense is really good

Numbers say a lot, but Dak has never looked as lost as Watson did today. He was missing by miles and throwing straight to the defender. He looked horrible. I don't need stats to see the difference.

[msstate7]

They were both pathetic. Point totals show that... 0 and 7

Outstanding job. Gotta have luck stay healthy though

[ShotgunDawg]

Love the Cowboys getting Cooper involved early

[ShotgunDawg]

Ah damn, Beasley is down

[msstate7]

Dak and the whole offense look good so far

[ShotgunDawg]

Nice start. Got bogged down by the RB falling down on the 1st down pass & a terrible 2nd down play call

[msstate7]

Nice start. Got bogged down by the RB falling down on the 1st down pass & a terrible 2nd down play call

On 2nd and 10, nfl OCs call run like 90% of the time. They are terrified of 3rd and 10

[Cooterpoot]

Noah Brown looks like one of our receivers

[msstate7]

That'a not good.

[ShotgunDawg]

Dak is pretty damn good. Way better accuracy than Watson. Particularly within 20 yards of the LOS

[starkvegasdawg]

Bad day to be an ankle on a WR.

[Cooterpoot]

Hurn broken ankle damn

[maroonmania]

That injury looked nasty. Anyway, much better start for the Cowboys than Dak's first playoff game where Rodgers and GB put them in a big early hole.

[Cooterpoot]

That shit was ugly

[Cooterpoot]

Hurn done and Beasley hurt. Shit ain’t going our way.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Hurns got “Ole Miss’d”

[Jack Lambert]

Hurn broken ankle damn

Looks worst then Fitz.

[Cooterpoot]

That sum beach snapped. That’s gonna be career ending. Ligament damage etc.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Yeah, that was a straight break. Saw it bend, then slow mo break snap.

[Cooterpoot]

New tackling rules bring ankles and knees into play.

[ShotgunDawg]

New tackling rules bring ankles and knees into play.

Yup. Still rather this type of injury than a spinal or concussion type.

[ShotgunDawg]

https://twitter.com/ProFootballDoc/status/1081726496757014529

[ShotgunDawg]

Troy just said the Cowboys have a 38% completion rate when throwing to Gallup.

Dak overall has 68% completion rate. That's wild. Does Gallup run the wrong way on the regular or what?

[maroonmania]

Terrible play call on 3rd and 2. Very low percentage play. Would been better off just to run.

[msstate7]

Richard is a damn good coach, but what the hey... they showing him like he was the DC there

[ShotgunDawg]

AT&T Stadium is the ankle monster tonight

[Cooterpoot]

Richard is a damn good coach, but what the hey... they showing him like he was the DC there

He makes the defensive calls. He basically is the DC.

[maroonmania]

Dallas has to lead the league in holding calls.

[ShotgunDawg]

The Cowboys DL is dominating

[msstate7]

He makes the defensive calls. He basically is the DC.

I've seen where he called them against the giants last week. No indication he's the primary play caller every week though

[maroonmania]

Holding call on Dallas negates a punt returned for a TD. Shocker.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

SEC officiating > NFL Officiating > PAC 12 Officiating

[Cooterpoot]

Drew Bree’s Visa commercial is getting old AF

[ShotgunDawg]

What a crap false start call. The Seahawks jumped off first

[maroonmania]

What a crap false start call. The Seahawks jumped off first

Can go along with the ticky tack holding call on the punt return. The Dallas offense can't sustain anything at the rate they are getting penalties.

[RocketDawg]

Drew Bree’s Visa commercial is getting old AF

Even more irritating than a burning "she-shed"?

[Activated Alpha]

Dak just can't do anything right now with the offense

[ShotgunDawg]

I'm not normally the type to complain about playcalling but the Cowboys play calling thus fair has been terrible

[maroonmania]

I don't like how this is going for Dallas. Penalties have kept Dallas from extending the lead and now Seattle is going to swing the momentum with this drive.

[ShotgunDawg]

Dak just can't do anything right now with the offense

What do you want him to do?

He's 10-15 for 90 yards. The OC keeps calling running plays & not letting Dak get in a rhythm

Dak is so much better when he gets in a rhythm & Linehan doesn't allow him to do that. He did last week when Zeke was out.

[msstate7]

What do you want him to do?

He's 10-15 for 90 yards. The OC keeps calling running plays & not letting Dak get in a rhythm

Dak is so much better when he gets in a rhythm & Linehan doesn't allow him to do that. He did last week when Zeke was out.

You realize zeke is their best player, right?

[maroonmania]

Finally Seattle gets a penalty.

[ShotgunDawg]

You realize zeke is their best player, right?

I absolutely do, but they struggle with the balance. Having your QB in rhythm is far more important that making sure Zeke gets his touches

[Cooterpoot]

Gallup half asses his routes

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Dallas's offensive playcalling is just uninspiring.

[ShotgunDawg]

Wow. the Cowboy's OL whiffs

[ShotgunDawg]

Dallas's offensive playcalling is just uninspiring.

It's conservative to a fault

[Dawgology]

Troy Aikman looks blitzed out of his mind. Wow

[msstate7]

Dangerous FG att

[msstate7]

Dumb FG att

[ShotgunDawg]

Dumb FG att

He made the same kick 2 weeks ago

[msstate7]

He made the same kick 2 weeks ago

2 weeks ago you weren't in the playoffs in a defensive struggle. Seahawks will take lead on short field

[KOdawg1]

For a Pro-Bowler, Tyron Smith sure does get caught holding and whiffs on his fair of pass protections.

[Cooterpoot]

Connor Williams another Jerry pick. Stupid to try the kick with time left.

[Cooterpoot]

Offense is better when we don?t feed Zeke. Forces Linehan to make calls. He?s a lazy assed play caller.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

It's conservative to a fault

I mean they do nothing to get Dak in rhythm or roll him out or anything and when they run, it's always just a straight vanilla handoff up the middle.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Seattle will get ball first after halftime as well... could be turning point of game here.

[Cooterpoot]

Dallas is toast without a turnover. Offense has been terrible due to shitastic play calling and injuries.

[maroonmania]

I've seen 2 blatant holds by Seattle in pass protection with no call yet Dallas gets them routinely. Guess I don't know what a hold is.

[ShotgunDawg]

I mean they do nothing to get Dak in rhythm or roll him out or anything and when they run, it's always just a straight vanilla handoff up the middle.

Nothing. It's brutal

There's a reason Dak has so many game winning drives. When in a rhythm throwing in the 2 min drill, he's awesome.

[ShotgunDawg]

Is Janakowski going to play till 50 years old? Dude is amazing

[bulldawg28]

Dak time

[ShotgunDawg]

Terrible spot on the pass to Cooper

[msstate7]

Why do they give it to Elliot?!!!!

[ShotgunDawg]

That's how you use Zeke. Get Dak in rhythm & then you use Zeke.

Dallas typically calls plays opposite of that & it's why they struggle

[ShotgunDawg]

You can tell when Dak gets in rhythm. He bounces in his drop back

[ShotgunDawg]

Why do they give it to Elliot?!!!!

Of course you give it to Zeke. It's the manner in which they do it that is bad

[msbulldog]

TD!!!!!!!!!!!

[maroonmania]

Big play there to go into halftime with.

[KOdawg1]

Great throw Dak. Say it Troy . I know it pains you.

[bulldawg28]

Boom!

[maroonmania]

Dang, can't believe that. Seattle probably going to get a FG now with that return.

[ShotgunDawg]

How do they fit Janakowski's face in that helmet?

[msbulldog]

Hooked

[Cooterpoot]

Maher can kick a 60+ yard FG but kickoff short. Just stupid shit like that with Dallas.

[ShotgunDawg]

Damn, Janakowski just pulled his hammy.

That's a huge problem for Seattle as NFL don't dress two kickers

[maroonmania]

Wow, if Janikowski's hurt that could be a big factor in the 2nd half.

[Quaoarsking]

Seattle's punter never attempted a field goal in college. He's from Australia and converted from Australian football, so he's likely never attempted a field goal at any level in any game in his whole life:

https://texassports.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=7194

[Cloak]

Janikowski sucks. I miss Hauschka

[mparkerfd20]

Janikowski is old as dirt. He pulled a hammy but luckily he has his walker on the sideline.

[msstate7]

I'm old. I can remember janikowski kicking at FSU

[Leeshouldveflanked]

How do they fit Janakowski's face in that helmet?

I got a brother in law that could be Janikowski’s twin... he’s a BAMA fan on top of that.

[parabrave]

But they can dropkick.

[Cooterpoot]

Andrew Luck looks like a cave man.

He's only 40 but has obviously partied hard. He looks like shit.

Come on mane, he's Captain Andrew Luck. Great follow on twitter

https://twitter.com/CaptAndrewLuck/status/1081712909384708097

[ShotgunDawg]

Cowboys' defense just isn't giving Russell anytime

[ShotgunDawg]

And we're back to the Zeke heavy offense in which Dak has no rhythm

[ShotgunDawg]

And we're back to the Zeke heavy offense in which Dak has no rhythm

Same crap.

Conservative to a fault

[maroonmania]

Dallas absolutely can't run the ball on 3rd or 4th and short when the defense knows they are running. Its happened that way all year.

[Cooterpoot]

Linehan has no idea what play action is. He never fakes it to Zeke.

[maroonmania]

Big blown sack by Dallas right there.

[ShotgunDawg]

Linehan has no idea what play action is. He never fakes it to Zeke.

Thing is, you have a QB that is statistically elite in the 2 min drill & yet you do nothing to attempt to recreate that situation for him on a more regular basis. It's mind boggling.

[BeardoMSU]

Thing is, you have a QB that is statistically elite in the 2 min drill & yet you do nothing to attempt to recreate that situation for him on a more regular basis. It's mind boggling.

He's a clown for sure. His offense is straight out of the 80's. Zero creativity.

[msbulldog]

Lucky that wasn't a safety.

[msbulldog]

Damn 3 & out.

[Goldendawg]

He's only 40 but has obviously partied hard. He looks like shit.

I chose the real Raiders to be my Pro team as I child in the early sixties. Being raised a Dawg in those days made me look for someone who could win**. They were great in those days and real colorful players and coaches. I think Janakowski was the first $1 mil kicker in the league. Hate to see him in another uni, but they have been hard to watch for about a decade or more. At least they are paying Gabe. Hail State!

[msbulldog]

Seattle has helluva field position, glad Janakowski can't kick.

[bluelightstar]

Linehan is horrible. I don’t know how Jason Garrett tolerates it.

[msbulldog]

I started watching pros in about 1963 and 8 years old. Green Bay was my team they were the real winners, until 67 and the saints got my Heart. And definitely not winners.

[ShotgunDawg]

Unreal catch

[maroonmania]

That was a beautiful throw on 4th down.

[KOdawg1]

Baldwin is making Awuzie his b***h tonight

[Cooterpoot]

They?re holding Dallas all night

[ShotgunDawg]

Seahawks can't kick FGs, so they'll go for it most times

[maroonmania]

They?re holding Dallas all night

Exactly, but all the holding calls are reserved for Dallas.

[ShotgunDawg]

The Cowboy DEs are lost vs the zone read

[Cooterpoot]

There was an obvious hold on the long pass. The NFL is rigged

[Activated Alpha]

Difference is seattle's line can get them that push for the few yards they need. Dallas cannot.

[bluelightstar]

They should fire Linehan

[msstate7]

Can't tie with fg now. Kicker getting hurt may end up being big for Seattle

[maroonmania]

Boy, terrible defense by Dallas after the 4th down conversion.

[Cooterpoot]

Dallas has to fire this damn staff.

[Activated Alpha]

I hate Seattle, mainly because I hate the city, but I still don't like them.

[ShotgunDawg]

There was an obvious hold on the long pass. The NFL is rigged

How is it rigged.

Why on Earth would the NFL want the Cowboys to lose

[msstate7]

How is it rigged.

Why on Earth would the NFL want the Cowboys to lose

They wouldn't.

[ShotgunDawg]

Completely wasted offensive quarter by the Cowboys full of choppy play calling & never attempting to get Dak in rhythm

[maroonmania]

I don't think the NFL would want Dallas to lose but NFL refs love to call holding on Dallas where they seem to just let it go on most other teams. Except for Dallas it normally takes something really bad to get a holding call. Seattle tonight only has 1 five yard penalty.

[Cooterpoot]

How is it rigged.

Why on Earth would the NFL want the Cowboys to lose

Did you not see they’re setting up a deal with gambling entities now? They suspend players based on who they are or team they’re on.

[msbulldog]

I don't think the NFL would want Dallas to lose but NFL refs love to call holding on Dallas where they seem to just let it go on most other teams. Except for Dallas it normally takes something really bad to get a holding call. Seattle tonight only has 1 five yard penalty.

Sounds like States luck.

This. It?s like taking out Goliath. The Refs enjoys it.

[msbulldog]

DAK

[msbulldog]

Dammit his knee was down.

[Cooterpoot]

Let Dak do it....

[msstate7]

Let Dak do it....

It was obviously fixed**

[Goldendawg]

I have hated the Cowboys my whole life of watching (about 56 seasons). Dak sure changes things. He;s short. I know empty the backfield and let Dak run it three times form the shotgun.** What!, a QB under center handing it to a RB! Is that a legal play???**

[maroonmania]

Hopefully they will just get under center and let Dak sneak it.

[DancingRabbit]

It is odd that Dallas' bad-ass DL can get sacks and TFLs but can't get a holding call.

[Activated Alpha]

Please secure the handoff right here

[maroonmania]

TERRIBLE call when Dak could just sneak it! Damn!

[KOdawg1]

Why wouldn't you QB sneak it there????

[Cooterpoot]

Elliot bullshit again

[msbulldog]

TD!!!!!!!

[maroonmania]

Well, at least they did get it in but I don't understand why you handoff in the backfield needing 3 inches.

[Quaoarsking]

The injured kicker looms large in a 3-point game

[msstate7]

Elliot bullshit again

Why in the world would they run the nfl's leading rusher at the goal line?!!!!

[Goldendawg]

Dallas O coaches are as conservative as Dan was in big games.

[msbulldog]

3 pt lead and no kicker for Seattle, so I guess there won't be a decision made for tie or win.

[Goldendawg]

Well, at least they did get it in but I don't understand why you handoff in the backfield needing 3 inches.

Well, we didn't hand it off 3 times in a row and the QB was never under center.

[maroonmania]

Why in the world would they run the nfl's leading rusher at the goal line?!!!!

Well that's a pretty simple answer, because its a lot easier to get 3 inches from under center than to start 4 yards behind the LOS.

[KOdawg1]

Why in the world would they run the nfl's leading rusher at the goal line?!!!!

It was on the 2 inch line. You sneak that and get it 99% of the time

[KOdawg1]

What a punt return

[maroonmania]

Dang, I thought he was gone. Not sure why he lost his balance.

[Goldendawg]

Well, at least they did get it in but I don't understand why you handoff in the backfield needing 3 inches.

I don't understand why most college spread/RPO offenses try to score with the QB in a shotgun with 3 or less to go.

[Cooterpoot]

Never hit the ground

[maroonmania]

I never saw the ball separate from the hand. I think that will stand.

[ShotgunDawg]

Dak is 22-30 for 226

Dude is a stud

[KOdawg1]

Dak is 22-30 for 226

Dude is a stud

NAH that's all Zeke and Cooper **

[maroonmania]

Another stupid Dallas penalty.

[KOdawg1]

When did Stephen Guidry start playing for Dallas?

[Goldendawg]

Man, that looked familiar, kind of.

[ShotgunDawg]

Terrible TO for the Cowboys

TE has to make a play there

[Cooterpoot]

Noah Brown is Osirus Mitchell

[maroonmania]

Wow, a holding call on Seattle. Can't believe it.

[maroonmania]

Terrible TO for the Cowboys

TE has to make a play there

Yep, it was interference, but good play by KJ.

[Cooterpoot]

These refs

[Goldendawg]

When did Stephen Guidry start playing for Dallas?

Maybe Dak was throwing that to someone else and immediately announcers blame DaK.

[msbulldog]

KJ committed pass interference on that interception.

[maroonmania]

KJ committed pass interference on that interception.

Yep, I actually thought it was PI real time.

[Cooterpoot]

And we put Beasley back deep. Shit ass coaching.

[Goldendawg]

How did they dare call a penalty on Fluker, a former bama player? Not his fault that Cowboy player pulled out in his lane and didn't look back. Hope Saban in in bed and not watching!****

[ShotgunDawg]

Does KJ have some Japanese in him?

[Cooterpoot]

KJ is everywhere

[Pollodawg]

Love both KJ and Dak, but KJ has interfered twice in the last couple of times he?s been on the field.

They just called it this time. It should be at least 20-14 right now. Probably 24-14.

[Cooterpoot]

Cooper hasn’t been on the field half our plays. Shit coaching

[msbulldog]

Run that ball.

[Cooterpoot]

Elliot could throw a halfback pass for a TD anytime

[maroonmania]

How big was that 2 point conversion for Seattle. Without it, a Dallas FG would make this an 8 point game.

[Goldendawg]

Are these SEC or PAC 12 officials?

[maroonmania]

Dang, I don't see that. It appeared 85 had stopped and was set??

[ShotgunDawg]

Terrible call on the illegal shift. He was set

[msbulldog]

DAK!!

[Activated Alpha]

Of course, Aikmen blames Dak on that illegal shift penalty

[KOdawg1]

FINALLY A GOOD PLAY CALL

[msstate7]

Kneel it

[maroonmania]

Of course, Aikmen blames Dak on that illegal shift penalty

Yep, noticed that.

[KOdawg1]

Flashback to the 2014 Egg Bowl there for Dak

[Cooterpoot]

Of course, Aikmen blames Dak on that illegal shift penalty

Dak had to call him back because he screwed up and went wide.

[msstate7]

Why score? That's the only way Seattle can win. Long shot as hell, but kneel it 4 times and they have like 10 seconds and 99 yards to go

[Goldendawg]

QB sneak! Hope that is in our play book next year.

[Really Clark?]

Dak had to call him back because he screwed up and went wide.

Yep. And if he hadn’t snapped it when he did it would have been a delay of game. Troy missed that though

[BeardoMSU]

Dak is a ****ing warrior. So is KJ. Love seeing both our guys balling out (even it KJ got away with PI, lol).

[BeardoMSU]

Yep. And if he hadn’t snapped it when he did it would have been a delay of game. Troy missed that though

Na, man...never miss out on an opportunity to shit on Dak. Troy is ****ing awful. I was hoping we'd get Romo for color this game, but alas....we're rewarded with the bitter mook again...

[Goldendawg]

Flashback to the 2014 Egg Bowl there for Dak

At least it was on a live play this time.

[msstate7]

Why score? That's the only way Seattle can win. Long shot as hell, but kneel it 4 times and they have like 10 seconds and 99 yards to go

Ahem

[State82]

How in hell does that happen??

[Quaoarsking]

Really they should've knelt 3 times and then tried to score on 4th instead of 4 kneels.

[msbulldog]

Dallas moves on to the next round. I am going to hate a playoff game against the Saints if that happens.

[msstate7]

Good news for Dallas is onside kicks are like impossible now with new rule

[Cooterpoot]

Byron Jones sucks

[CadaverDawg]

Byron Jones sucks

[CadaverDawg]

Byron Jones sucks

Haha

[msbulldog]

Done!

[DancingRabbit]

Pete says WTF Mate?

[msstate7]

Bring em to Nola

[Really Clark?]

That was anticlimactic onside kick

[Cooterpoot]

Go Philly! Beat Da Bears!

[msbulldog]

Dak 22/33 266 yds

[msstate7]

Congrats dak on first playoff win

[Cooterpoot]

1 playoff win behind Romo

[Goldendawg]

Best TE playing QB in the NFL.

[Hot Rock]

I went to the Dallas board for a bit.. hell, you read two posts and there will be four pages of post before you can read another. That place is impossible during a game. There is no way to keep up with a game thread unless that's all you did for 3 hrs. You can't turn the pages as fast as they post. Crazy.

[Cloak]

Big Seahawks fan, but at least I still have the Dakboys to cheer for

[Goldendawg]

He'e good but I have never liked Russell Wilson. Pete Carroll also left USC West on probation. No respect for him.

[Quaoarsking]

Root hard for Philly tomorrow. The Cowboys are a lot more likely to win in LA than New Orleans, I think.

[KOdawg1]

Root hard for Philly tomorrow. The Cowboys are a lot more likely to win in LA than New Orleans, I think.

They'd have to play in New Orleans if they'd beat the Rams anyway probably. Might as well get the Saints in the Division round where teams struggle with weeks off. Just look at Dallas in 2016

[msbulldog]

Damn boys it's getting tough now, my teams the Saints, but I been pulling for the Boys and the Eagles cause of our guys, Hail State!

[Goldendawg]

Damn boys it's getting tough now, my teams the Saints, but I been pulling for the Boys and the Eagles cause of our guys, Hail State!

Showing how old I am, but I have never liked the Saints cause Archie was their QB! Hail State!

[Cooterpoot]

That -2.5 got some folks tonight.

[Turfdawg67]

Of course, Aikmen blames Dak on that illegal shift penalty

I keep thinking Troy just doesn't want to be a homer... but geez! He gave everyone, on that 16 yard run, credit or discredit (Seattle's D) except for Dak.

[Pit Bull]

Why score? That's the only way Seattle can win. Long shot as hell, but kneel it 4 times and they have like 10 seconds and 99 yards to go

Makes sense, and I would do that except Russell Wilson turns into Houdini when stuff like that goes down. You have to beat Seattle to the last second to win. I wouldn't feel comfortable with leaving Wilson any time on the clock.

[msstate7]

They'd have to play in New Orleans if they'd beat the Rams anyway probably. Might as well get the Saints in the Division round where teams struggle with weeks off. Just look at Dallas in 2016

Not really... 4 of the last 5 #1 NFC seeds have made the SB. Cowboys were the one that didn't. 4 of the last 5 #1 AFC seeds have made the SB. Broncos 2012 were the ones that didn't

[WinningIsRelentless]

I keep thinking Troy just doesn't want to be a homer... but geez! He gave everyone, on that 16 yard run, credit or discredit (Seattle's D) except for Dak.

Or is JJ getting in his ear some? Contract year and all for Dak.
