FRISCO, Texas – Cowboys QB Dak Prescott explained Dallas’ current situation well earlier this week: “We can only say ‘we’ve got a lot of games in front of us’ for so long.”
Only eleven remain for the Cowboys, and that number will fall to 10 after Monday night’s matchup against the Eagles. Philadelphia is in the same boat, sitting at 2-4 with crucial injuries and personnel changes heavily impacting their start to the year, and certainly affecting them the rest of the season too.
In a year where the NFC East appears to be wide open, eventually, one team needs to go and take the lead of it. In the next five games, the Cowboys play one team with a winning record, the undefeated San Francisco 49ers. Starting Monday night, they have an opportunity to get a stronghold on the division, but they’ve had opportunities to early in the year as well, and came up short.
How can things be different Monday night? Let’s take a look in this week’s Here We Goooo:
