A little under a month ago, the Dallas Cowboys dropped to 3-5-1 with an ugly Week 9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, a defeat that gave America's Team virtually no shot to make the postseason. They got a little help in the wild-card race during their Week 10 bye, but also fell four games behind the NFC East-leading Philadelphia Eagles in the win column that week when the Birds took a 10-7 victory over the Green Bay Packers.
