Looks like Fowler may be deserving of some of the credit for Lynch's TD...we bash him alot here b'cse we wish he were stronger and more stout, but there may be a reason the coaches still keep him at Center:
The Bills’ other touchdowns came on a 21-yard run by Lynch in the first quarter and a 30-yard pass from Edwards to Royal late in the third.
On Lynch’s score, the Bills caught Seattle crowding the line of scrimmage on a third-and-11 play. Lynch took a shotgun handoff off left tackle and ripped through the Seattle defense. Center Melvin Fowler got a key block on Seattle tackle Craig Terrill and guard Brad Butler walled off linebacker Leroy Hill.
“It was a great call by Melvin Fowler because they put a lot of people up on the line,” Butler said. “They had too many people to the left, on the play side, so we made a push call.”
The line shoved the Seahawks left and Lynch cut back behind them and ran up the left sideline.
