* In the first quarter, the Cowboys faced a 3rd and 1 from the Dallas 38. Tony Romo threw deep to the left to nobody, but Seattle cornerback Josh Wilson was called for illegial use of hands. Two plays later, Romo hit Witten for 36 yards, setting up a 16-yard touchdown pass to Martellus Bennett.

* Newly-acquired Tra Battle had one tackle in his one appearance with the San Diego Chargers in 2008. He had one tackle on his first play with the Cowboys, tackling Wilson on the ensuing kickoff following the first Dallas touchdown.

* Julius Jones had a total of eight fumbles (six lost) in four years with the Cowboys. That’s eight fumbles in 885 carries, meaning he averaged a fumble on 0.9% of his carries. Including his two fumbles against the Cowboys, he now has four fumbles on 152 attempts with Seattle, meaning he has fumbled on 2.6% of his carries.

* Roy Williams has run the ball six times in his career, including a reverse in the first quarter against Seattle. His previous five attempts went for a total of four yards, while his reverse went for 13.

* During the first five games of the season, the Cowboys outscored their opponents in the first quarter by a combined total of 41-9 en route to a 4-1 record. In the first quarters of the six games after that, Dallas was outscored 61-7. The Cowboys doubled their first-quarter output of the past six games in the first quarter of the Seattle game by scoring 14.

* The Seahawks’ long-snapper was former Cowboy Jeff Robinson.

* L.P. LaDouceur, the Cowboys’ current deep-snapper, was called for a “reverse take-down” in the third quarter. Nobody is quite sure what that means.
