"The Dallas Cowboys are firmly back in the mix as an NFC playoff contender after pulling off a thrilling comeback victory over the Philadelphia Eagles last week and overcoming a 21-0 deficit. It was the second consecutive win for the Cowboys after demolishing the Las Vegas Raiders the prior week, and at 5-5-1, Dallas is still alive heading into a tough matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs on Thanksgiving, who are in a similar boat in the AFC."
"The Pickens acquisition couldn't be working out better for both parties and the receiver is living up to all the hype he had during his days with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He appears to have matured as well and has checked every box since coming to the Cowboys. Pickens has already surpassed his career highs with 67 catches and eight touchdowns this season, and he is becoming an indispensable part of this offense."
Dallas rallied from a 21-0 deficit to beat Philadelphia and posted a second straight win to reach 5-5-1, keeping playoff hopes alive. The Cowboys face the Kansas City Chiefs on Thanksgiving as both teams navigate competitive stretches. George Pickens has emerged as a key playmaker, catching nine passes in each of his last two games for 144 and 146 yards with a touchdown in each contest. Pickens has already exceeded prior career highs with 67 catches and eight touchdowns this season and is becoming essential to the offense. Using the franchise tag is a likely short-term method to secure him, though long-term retention could prove complicated.
