The Dallas Cowboys concluded their regular season on Saturday night with a 51-26 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The victory put their final record at 12-5, a far cry from 2020’s disappointing 6-10 record. The club has secured their first trip to the postseason since 2018 and while they’ve dealt with more than their fair share of injuries, it’s a far cry from what they endured the prior season.
Soon, all eyes will be set on the club’s home game at AT&T Stadium, but for now it’s fair to take a quick second and reflect over the performances from the 17-game regular season, the first of it’s kind in the NFL. Dallas’ roster proved to be one of the better in the league on both sides of the ball. The offense was expected, but the growth of the defense took a lot of people by surprise. The Cowboys spent the first half of the season without their best defender and ended up having two of the top-five candidates for league-wide player of the year.
It stands to reason the competition for intra-squad awards would be hot and heavy. Here’s a look at who the Cowboys Wire staff feels should take home various honors.
