The Dallas Cowboys stay mathematically alive for a playoff area this NFL season. As this holds true we are continuing to have discussions about their standing within the NFC, where they are, what they require, so on etc. Undoubtedly this season has actually been attempting so it is possible that you choose a various result. Please acknowledge that the following discussion refer to the capacity of this group reaching the postseason.
With our complete and appropriate disclaimer now out of the method, Week 14 sort of stunk for the Dallas Cowboys. There were 8 overall things we were rooting for relative to the NFC side of things and just 3 of them went our method.
The bulk of the reason that we were rooting versus the groups that we were was to get rid of prospective dangers to NFC Wild Card positions so regarding open more chance for the Cowboys. It is definitely handy that both the Atlanta Falcons and Arizona Cardinals lost, however Green Bay's defeat barely assists in the very same method. The Packers appear ensured to take home a minimum of among the leading Wild Card areas, if the Cowboys are going to squeeze themselves into this thing it is most likely going to be as the last one.
Although Arizona and Atlanta lost in Week 14 other Wild Card competitors in the Rams, 49ers and (to a lower degree) the Saints all won. The Cowboys have an opportunity to pull even with Atlanta, Arizona and San Francisco on Monday night before heading to Carolina next Sunday.
Thankfully next week uses a video game in between the Rams and 49ers (the very first of the week on Thursday night) which indicates among them will need to lose. Certainly (as kept in mind) the Cowboys have actually dug themselves rather the hole to pull themselves out of this season, however if they can continue to stack wins then it is possible that sufficient turmoil will unfold around them to make this a genuine discussion.
The Cowboys will go to the Panthers next Sunday. It is possible that a week from today we are speaking about a. 500 football group. There is a bit to go in between now which theoretical, however once again things can occur rapidly.
The next action for Dallas is on Monday night versus the Cincinnati Bengals.
