The Dallas Cowboys entered Week 14 in a precarious position. Despite winning three-straight games, the team was still on the outside looking in at the postseason. Facing the Detroit Lions in a must-win matchup on Thursday Night Football, Dallas came up short. The 44-30 loss dropped the Cowboys to 6-6-1, seriously damaging their playoff odds.
The Cowboys have had a rollercoaster season so far. Each week seems to offer a new perspective on the team. And every time you think you have them figured out, they shapeshift into a puzzling new form.

Ossai had has most impactful game of the season against the Baltimore Ravens on Thanksgiving night. He recorded two sacks with eight pressures in the game. Him and Myles Murphy have really started to stack some quality games the last few weeks. Murphy added five pressures with a batted pass that led to an interception against Baltimore.
Facing Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills will be an even bigger test for these young defensive ends. Trey Hendrickson is once again doubtful to play, Ossai and Murphy will need to continue producing in his absence....
