The Dallas Cowboys were maybe the hottest team in the NFC behind the Chicago Bears going into Week 14, and they just lost a major game to the Detroit Lions who now (again) look like they have a real shot to make the playoffs, and overall, the NFC is the “Wild West”, and perhaps the NFL at large is as open as it’s ever been.
Only a couple/few teams are technically eliminated from playoff contention, and the 1-seed is still very much up for grabs, and the best team in the NFL? Very much up for debate. Who’s going to find themselves in the Super Bowl? Great question.
Whereas last year it was fairly clear that the Philadelphia Eagles were the best team in the NFL, this year is different, this year it’s more or less anyone’s year in a way that it not always is.
Last night was another reminder that this season is an unpredictable as any we’ve seen.
Happy Friday, thank you for checking out Turf Show Times and hopefully you have a great weekend! Plenty of football action to rest and get ready for.
“Cowboys playoff chances took major hit in loss. The Cowboys’ resurgence has been a terrific late-season storyline, but their playoff chances took a serious hit Thursday night, with Next Gen Stats estimating their chances at a scant 8%. A win would have pushed them to 35%, but the Cowboys were in a trail position most of the night, struggling to stop an explosive Lions offense and committing two key turnovers that led to Lions scores. Jake Ferguson fumbled for the third time (losing his second) in the past five games, and his penalty offset what would have been a Lions defensive pass interference call, giving Dallas the ball at the Detroit 1-yard line; instead, the Cowboys settled for the third of five Brandon Aubrey field goals. Aubrey was amazing, but the Cowboys brought too many field goals to a touchdown fight. They fought hard, with Sam Williams’ blocked field goal turning the momentum and Dak Prescott firing away until the end – even without his best receiver. But the Cowboys had too many breakdowns, and now they’re way on the outside looking in on the playoff field.“

“I remember coming to Molly at the beginning of the season, I told Molly, ‘Every Tuesday, I want to be somewhere, I want to be in the community. I want to continue to keep inspiring impact and creating change amongst people of the young age,’” Williams said. “So Molly, she does what she does, and she went out there, she figured out all the things that I could be useful at, things that I could go do exactly what I said I wanted to do. And she made it possible. Shout out to Molly and all the Rams. But to me, it’s a blessing. To me, this is why I play the game.”
