"The Dallas Cowboys are in a position where they need to wina ll of their remaining games and even doing so on its own will not be enough to guarantee a playoff berth. This is what happens when you start a season off 3-5-1. Four more wins and two losses from the Philadelphia Eagles are what the Cowboys need in order to win the NFC East, but the only part of that they control is going 4-0 to finish the season."
"Doing so is hard enough in and of itself, but it would also mean that Dallas went 7-1 over the second half of the season and coming out of the bye. Here are the remaining four games for the Cowboys. Minnesota Vikings Los Angeles Chargers at Washington Commanders (Christmas Day, which is a Thursday) at New York Giants Of these remaining games there is a short week in there with the Cowboys needing to travel to face the Commanders on Christmas Day."
The Cowboys started the season 3-5-1, leaving them needing to win every remaining game to contend for the division. The team must go 4-0 while also needing the Philadelphia Eagles to go 4-2 in their remaining games to clinch the NFC East. A 4-0 finish would reflect a 7-1 stretch over the second half of the season and a strong recovery after the bye. Remaining opponents are the Minnesota Vikings, Los Angeles Chargers, at Washington Commanders (Christmas Day, Thursday), and at New York Giants, with a short-week trip to Washington creating added difficulty.
