The Dallas Cowboys are coming off of another huge win but this time it was different than any other they have had this season. The Minnesota Vikings are the best defense the Cowboys will likely face all season long. They were also the most desperate team Dallas has faced considering a win here would have done a lot to help the Vikings standings, not only in the NFC but in their own division.
Now Minnesota will face an uphill battle in terms of making the playoffs. While this win was ugly, it was still a big win that this unit needed especially before an emotionally charged game with the New York Giants.
