The Dallas Cowboys did a great job of bouncing back from a bad loss in Green Bay by taking apart an 8-1 Minnesota Vikings team in every way possible. They reminded themselves and the national viewing audience what they could achieve when the entire team is clicking on all cylinders.
While Dallas fans might be disappointed about not having much time to revel in the victory, the New York Giants are probably excited to get to the next game as quickly as possible. Soundly defeated by the Detroit Lions in their own stadium, the Thanksgiving matchup gives New York a speedy chance at a reprieve.
Both teams have to refocus quickly, hopefully with as much health as possible, before fighting it out to be in second place in the NFC East with a chance at still winning the division title. Here are the keys to victory for both teams.
