After so many disheartening and even depressing games for the Dallas Cowboys, the 31-28 triumph over the Minnesota Vikings provided a lot of fun and interesting numbers to consider. There were a couple of record-setting performances. A spectacular catch. And some real validation of the coaching staff.
We’ll touch on several things, but there is going to be a primary focus in this review of stats and data from the game. It is something of a return to an old theme for yours truly. For the past few seasons, the Cowboys have lost a lot of games at least partly because they lost the field position battle.
