The Cowboys (6-8) are currently the 12-place team in the NFC, tied with the 49ers (6-8), one game behind the Cardinals (7-7), Falcons (7-7), two games behind the Seahawks (8-6) and three behind the 7th place Commanders (9-5) with three games left in the regular season.
Dallas needs a win over Tampa on Sunday and a Philadelphia win over Washington to remain in that tight playoff hunt.
On Thursday, Cowboys star pass rusher Micah Parsons was asked about potentially rooting for the Eagles to remain in the playoff hunt. Parsons didn’t hold back his contempt and disdain for the NFC East rivals, telling Dallas that “he hates the Eagles.”

Parsons has dealt with injuries in a quiet season production, logging 7.5 sacks, 13 QB hits, and six tackles for loss over the past six games.
Parsons will be able to speak his peace in person when Dallas visits Philadelphia in Week 17.
