It takes a village, as the saying goes. In the NFL, though, it takes a team, and the Cowboys demonstrated that Sunday night. While it’s always satisfying to see the marquee superstars shine brightly on the primetime stage, Week 14’s massive divisional win over Philadelphia wasn’t the result of Dak Prescott or CeeDee Lamb or Micah Parsons putting the entire roster on his back. No, this most recent victory came as the result of true complementary football and multiple players in all three phases making a single play here or there (or two plays, in one veteran’s case) when it mattered most.
The entire 33-13 dismantling of the Eagles is worth a re-watch, even if only for pure enjoyment purposes, but take a moment to stop and zero in on these four plays that proved especially momentous. Each represents the kind of effort that will be needed- from every player wearing the star- to finish the regular season strong and take the Cowboys on a deep playoff run.
