Rapid Reaction: Cowboys 24, Seahawks 22 - Seahawks.com

4. Late-game penalties were a big problem.

The Seahawks committed only one penalty in last week’s win over Arizona, and through three quarters they again avoided penalty problems, recording just one. But in some big situations in the fourth quarter, penalties became a problem for Seattle. After Wright’s interception gave the Seahawks the ball back down three points, the offense went backwards thanks to a holding penalty and a personal foul for an after-the-whistle hit. Those penalties led to a quick three-and-out, then on Dallas’ game-clinching touchdown drive, the Seahawks were flagged twice for pass interference, one of them coming on a third down early in the drive.
