I think the win against Dallas was a result of a combination of them being overconfident and underestimating this team's will to win that game.
SH didn't play defense, but I think the performance of the defense did have an impact on his performance. He was able to stick with the somewhat conservative game plan, and wasn't asked or forced to do too much. His performance could have looked much different if the team played from behind, and he had to throw the ball 40 times. As it turns out, they didn't have to play from behind thanks to the defense, so in my opinion the defense had a lot to do with SH's performance.
I do agree with you, that Dallas looked like a different team last night, but I think it's because Washington is a much better team than Tampa.
