The Dallas Cowboys allowed Buffalo Bills RB James Cook to rush for 179 yards on just 25 carries on Sunday, an average of 7.2 yards per carry. While the team missed DT Jonathan Hankins in the game, many of Cook’s big gains came on the outside.

A large reason for Cook’s success running the ball was due to poor tackling by the Cowboys defenders.
