Having TJ Watt cover aWR makes a lot of sense

Watt was responsible for the flat area.  The defensive play call was predicated on getting pressure, and Dallas not being able to extend the play.  Gilbert was able to extend the play, Lamb ad-libbed, and voila.

It's the reason wheel routes are such a great look against Cover-3, the flat defender has to carry the wheel route (essentially what Lamb ran) while the deep 1/3 defender is occupied by a post or other vertical route.

For the record, I still think Peterson in his prime was better than what Cook is now.

I didn't realize that they almost had 100 yards besides Peterson.

The most rushing yards they had as a team in a game the last 13 years and yet it's still 21 yards behind what Peterson had individually.  That was an insane game
