The Cowboys had twice as many long-play touchdown drives in 2016 than they have this year

Last year, the season was on the line for the Dallas Cowboys when they hosted the Seattle Seahawks in the second-to-last game of the year. The Cowboys had climbed out of a hole by winning three-straight games to get to an 8-6 record. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a good Christmas for Cowboys fans in terms of the delivering the gift of postseason football. The defense showed up and only allowed 136 total yards, including just 60 yards passing. But the offense was nowhere to be found. They didn’t score a single touchdown and to make matters worse - they turned the ball over leading to points for Seattle, including a pick-six to the Seahawks defense.
