PFW Matchup Breakdown: Dallas Cowboys vs. Minnesota Vikings

The Dallas Cowboys are coasting right now as the cream of the NFL crop with a 10-game winning streak after knocking off Washington 31-26 last week on Thanksgiving, a two-game lead in the NFC East and a chance to clinch a Wild Card spot as early as this Thursday night.

But the Cowboys aren’t thinking Wild Card, they’re thinking No. 1 seed as they travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings in this week's Thursday night football matchup, with the Vikes coming off a heartbreaking 16-13 loss Thanksgiving day. The Vikings outplayed the Lions throughout the second half and appeared to have the game in hand until Sam Bradford through a crushing interception – just his third of the season – deep in his own end with 1:30 to play.
