Dak Prescott

The Seattle Seahawks are still alive.

In a game that amounted to be a playoff game for both teams involved, the Seahawks eliminated the Dallas Cowboys from the postseason with a 21-12 victory in Arlington.

It's hard to say that Seattle was definitively the better team on the field in this one. The Seahawks were held to 136 total yards of offense, the lowest amount by a team to win a game this season. They also became the first team since 1966 to win a game with more penalty yards than yards of offense.

Needless to say, the fantasy stats were nothing to write home about on either side.

Doug Baldwin had a nice day at the office, catching four balls for 35 yards and a touchdown to beat his Projected Fantasy Points total. He was the only Seahawk who got the job done, though. No one else produced a win on Dober Play Cards.

The Cowboys had a tough game offensively. Ezekiel Elliott ran for 97 yards on 24 carries in his return, but he short-armed a couple passes and didn't do Dak Prescott any favors.

Dez Bryant also had a terrible game. He caught three passes for 44 yards and was a loser on Dober Play Cards, but he also dropped a pass that turned into a Dak Prescott interception and lost a fumble.

Dan Bailey, one of the most accurate kickers in NFL history, made his first four field goal tries. That said, he missed his last two to keep Dallas from having any chance of winning this game.
