Blogging The Boys
Life has changed for the Dallas Cowboys over the last two weeks and change as they have doubled up their season win total to sit at 6-5-1 as December football is here. Whether or not they are able to convert it into an opportunity to play deep into next month remains to be seen, but they have at the very least made this thing entertaining which is commendable.
For the Cowboys to have a serious chance they obviously have to take care of their own business, and they are going to have to pick up help across the rest of the NFL. Cowboys fans had the weekend off to enjoy action around the league (and will have it once more this week) and there were quite a few surprises that we saw.
Here are our power rankings of all 32 NFL teams entering Week 14 and a collection of how outlets across the internet view the Cowboys specifically.
1 – New England Patriots (LW: 2)
Much has been made about the lack of legitimate quarterbacks who they have played, but their record speaks for itself. It is going to be fascinating to watch them in the playoffs.
2 – Seattle Seahawks (LW: 3)
The door is open for them.
3 – Los Angeles Rams (LW: 1)
Maybe losing on the road to Carolina wasn’t so bad?
4 – Denver Broncos (LW: 5)
Also maybe losing to these dudes wasn’t too embarrassing either.
5 – Buffalo Bills (LW: 8)
The Steelers are hardly a formidable foe, but they have to feel good and like they are back on track a bit.
6 – Chicago Bears (LW: 9)
My word. This team is so much fun. It does kind of feel like they are going to break a bunch of hearts, but at least the process will be quite the ride.
7 – Green Bay Packers (LW: 11)
It is hard to not see them going deep.
8 – San Francisco 49ers (LW: 12)
They find a way. Which is a bummer.
9 – Detroit Lions (LW: 4)
Everything feels really fragile here right now. It would be a shame if the team playing them next beat them to unleash the chaos!
10 – Dallas Cowboys (LW: 14)
Be the disruptors!
11 – Carolina Panthers (LW: 17)
Seriously, Sunday was so impressive. It doees kind of seem like they might be able to rally for the NFC South which would be fun.
12 – Kansas City Chiefs (LW: 6)
Historians will look back at Thanksgiving Day as the moment where the dynasty truly ended. Probably not. But maybe!
13 – Philadelphia Eagles (LW: 10)
It is unbelievable how this team and franchise is incapable of smiply enjoying a good thing.
14 – Jacksonville Jaguars (LW: 18)
Could they win the AFC South? It is just so hard to trust.
15 – Houston Texans (LW: 13)
Because, you know, these dudes exist.
16 – Los Angeles Chargers (LW: 16)
Please play next...
