Week 16 has arrived, and thanks to the Christmas holiday, the majority of NFL action is taking place on Saturday. That includes the Dallas Cowboys, who will take on the Philadelphia Eagles while seeking revenge for a Week 6 loss. Dallas sits at 10-4 on the season, having already clinched a playoff berth with three games remaining. It’s the earliest Dallas has clinched a playoff berth since 2016 when they clinched in Week 13.
But Dallas isn’t in a position to celebrate, or rest, just yet. Dallas is currently sitting as the top wild-card team which would earn them the No. 5 seed and a matchup against the NFC South champion. Tampa Bay currently sits in that position with a 6-8 record. Dropping lower would mean a road rematch against one of the quality division winners, Philadelphia or Minnesota, or the team that eliminated them last postseason, San Francisco. Here’s the rooting guide for Week 16, which includes some draft considerations for the division as well.
