Watch the game. Atkins constantly got in the backfield and pushed his guys back. However, the Cowboys ran plays away from him and allowed plays to develop outside of his area. You see numerous misdirection plays and double teams.
Atkins is a top 3 DT. The Cowboys did a great job exposing the rest of this defensive line. Along with the linebackers, who, for some reason, have not been given any flake for their inability to not only get off blocks, but to misread plays and even get faked out. Along with some poor tackling.
