Cowboys News: Replacement levels, milestones, contract talks

A few Cowboys can reach milestones in the regular season finale and a former GM thinks Dallas could run the table. | From @ArmyChiefW3

The season’s final week carries massive playoff implications, yet the hope is for Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott to play the minimum number of snaps possible. While the outcome of the game is of utmost importance, a few members of the team can reach significant milestones that would make even the greatest coaches in Cowboys history envious.

The revival of one of the greatest playoff rivalries in NFL history has a former front-office personnel guy singing the Cowboys praises. History may suggest he is correct.

Becoming more efficient in contract negotiations would make life easier, and the decisions Dallas makes to create more cap space may be the reason an off-season divorce happens. Also, could the Cowboys style of offense be the reason for success or will it become their fatal flaw? Finally, as the information about this week’s opponent continues to trickle in, all signs point to a team ready to begin their offseason; Dallas beware. All that and more on this edition of Cowboys news and notes.
