Even after Dallas’ huge comeback over the Eagles on Sunday, Philadelphia is still the heavy favorite to win the NFC East. But at least the Cowboys’ victory made things a little more interesting going forward, and puts Philly on its heels ahead of a very tough matchup.
Dallas got back to .500 in remarkable fashion, but remains three wins behind the NFC East leaders. If the Cowboys can match victories with Philly by the end of the season, they will likely take the division. The tie in Dallas’ record gives them a slightly higher winning percentage, rendering tiebreakers like head-to-head...

The Dallas Cowboys pulled off the upset over the Philadelphia Eagles, but have little time to bask in their victory. They have a quick turnaround this week and little time to prepare for the Kansas City Chiefs coming to town for Thanksgiving. Anyway you look at it, this is a tough matchup for the Cowboys, but one they seem capable of winning if they continue to play as they have over the past few weeks.
Today, we’re going to take a look at a few matchups that could help sway the game in the Cowboys favor if handled properly. If...

As the NFL turns the final stretch into Week 13, Cowboys fans once again have found new hope after a big victory over the defending Super Bowl Champion and NFC East division-leading Philadelphia Eagles to improve their record to 5-5-1.
The win, coupled with a loss by the Carolina Panthers, has bumped the Cowboys to 9th in the NFC Playoff picture.
Just three weeks ago, a playoff berth seemed like a long shot, but now, the path to the playoffs is clear: win at all costs, and pray for some help from their NFC foes.
However, this is the NFL,...

As we like to do after certain Cowboys wins, today we’re going to look at what fans of other NFL teams had to say while they were watching the Cowboys outplay the Eagles to keep their very slim playoff hopes alive.
Unfortunately for us, we don’t have a lot of comments from other fan bases today because many were either busy watching their own team play or debating how their own game ended. Either way, enjoy the game one more time.

The Dallas Cowboys defense has gone from one of the worst in the NFL to one of the best in a matter of two games.
I, for one, had a notion the defensive reinforcements would help the defense, but the extent of the help has created a defensive resurgence.
Injuries and, to put it bluntly, a lack of talent, have plagued this defense all season, but the bye week changed everything.
Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys went out into the NFL landscape and pulled off two trades that have changed the trajectory of the season. Along with the trades,...

CeeDee Lamb is pretty candid about how he’s addressing his issues with dropping the football.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb did not need to do any deep dive on why he dropped three passes, including a potential touchdown, in Sunday’s win against the Philadelphia Eagles.
“You just find ways to get better,” Lamb said. “You want to be solution-oriented and not really much to dwell on the problem. Granted, we know the problem, I need to catch the f—ing...

With 5:26 remaining in a 21-21 tie, the Dallas Cowboys were forced to punt the ball to the Eagles on Sunday when a rookie turned everything around.
Undrafted free agent Alijah Clark raced downfield on the punt and separated Xavier Gipson from the ball at the Eagles’ 14-yard line.
While Dallas failed to score on the ensuing possession, it left Philadelphia pinned deep in their own territory. The Eagles were forced to punt from their own 19 with 1:44 left.
Dak Prescott drove the Cowboys into field goal range for the winning kick by Brandon Aubrey.
But without that hustle...

Former Dallas Cowboys players Jason Witten and Darren Woodson are officially semifinalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2026.
The semifinalists were announced at large on Tuesday morning and Dallas has two players part of the field as noted. This year marks the first time that Witten is eligible for the HOF and that he has advanced to the semifinalist portion is a strong suggestion that he will one day have a bust in Canton, Ohio. He has long been regarded as a future HOFer so this is hardly a surprise, but it certainly does indeed carry...

Two days before the big Thanksgiving festivities, the Dallas Cowboys are prepping to take on the Kansas City Chiefs. After Tuesday’s practice, here’s where the team stands regarding injuries.
Tyler Guyton (ankle) was a DNP again on Tuesday. It looks less likely that he will be able to play Thanksgiving. Osa Odighizuwa (elbow), George Pickens (knee/calf), KaVontae Turpin (shoulder/illness), were back on a limited basis today after sitting out yesterday. Donovan Wilson (neck) was again limited today. Also, DaRon Bland (wrist) and Tyler Smith (knee) were a full go once again.
For a second consecutive day, Noah Gray (concussion) and...

The Dallas Cowboys have picked up some positive favor over their last two games, and as a result they are starting to pull in a different type of national attention. It is making for a rather fun Thanksgiving Day week.
Nobody is overreacting to the Cowboys winning two games, but people are seemingly willing to acknowledge that this team is turning a corner. That full turn may not happen in 2025, but the darkest part of the night finally seems to be behind this team.
How firmly do other people agree with that, though? Just how into the Cowboys are...
