Is it time for Cowboys fans to panic after falling to 5-4? Yeah, probably.
Panic level: So you’re saying there’s a chance
Dallas Cowboys: Buckle up for the NFC East race, because suddenly after the Cowboys’ 28-24 loss to Minnesota on Sunday night, Dallas and Philadelphia are tied for first in the division.
We easily could have listed the Cowboys one level higher, but as impressed as we were with Dak Prescott and Amari Cooper and Randall Cobb — those catches, my goodness — against the Vikings, we’re equally concerned about a defense that appeared to be worn down, play by play, by Minnesota’s combination of running game and play-action passing game.
