Don’t look now, but the Dallas Cowboys are quickly rising toward the top of the NFC East. On the back of a three-game winning streak, including impressive performances against both of the teams featured in last season’s Super Bowl, the once-discarded Cowboys are forcing their way into the NFC playoff picture.
Still, the road ahead is steep. Dallas likely needs to win out and hope for a couple of losses by the Philadelphia Eagles to overtake them in the final month of the season. The Cowboys’ division rivals are keeping the door open, but it won’t be an easy task.
