ARLINGTON, Texas — It remains a long shot and a lot needs to happen out of their control but the Dallas Cowboys are still alive in the race for the NFC East title, thanks to Saturday’s thrilling 40-34 comeback victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Christmas Eve.
The Cowboys (11-4) are now two games behind the Eagles (13-2) with two games left in the season.
The Cowboys must win their final two games, Thursday against the Tennessee Titans and at the Washington Commanders in the final game, and then hope that the Eagles lose their final two, Sunday at the New Orleans Saints and against the New York Giants in the season final.
