Tony Romo threw three touchdowns and 10 different Cowboys had at least one catch, as Dallas rolled to a 38-17 victory over the Seahawks.

Romo ended with 256 yards on 21-of-36 efficiency in Dallas' (5-2) third straight win. Miles Austin led a balanced receiving corps with five catches for 61 yards and a score, while Sam Hurd and Roy Williams each caught a TD.

Marion Barber scored on the ground and ended with 53 yards on 14 carries, and Patrick Crayton returned a punt for a score for the second consecutive week.

Matt Hasselbeck threw touchdown passes to Deion Branch and Justin Griffith, respectively, but had little help elsewhere for Seattle (2-5), which was coming off a bye after a disappointing 27-3 home loss to Arizona.

Julius Jones rushed for 56 yards on 15 carries against his former team, while Nate Burleson hauled in six passes for 89 yards in the loss.
