The Cowboys lost 34–26 to the Vikings on Sunday night, dropping them to a 6–7–1 record. Dallas now has an extremely slim chance of making the playoffs at 1%—they need to win their final three games, while the Eagles have to lose their last three games. It’s not impossible, but seems very unlikely at this point of the season.
Despite knowing that the Cowboys probably won’t be making the playoffs this year, quarterback Dak Prescott won’t give up quite yet. He offered an inspiring post-game message about his mindset heading into the final stretch of the season—essentially, you never know what could happen in the NFL, as he used last Thursday night’s Falcons spoiler win over the Buccaneers as an example.
