Only Giants Game Is Must Win




The Dallas Cowboys win the division with a win at home against the Giants on New Year's Day, regardless of the outcome of any other game.

With a win against NYG, the worst possible record for Dallas is 9-7. With NY taking the loss, their best possible record would be 8-8. Best possible record for Philly is 8-8.

A win at Philly is only meaningful if the Giants lose to the Jets next weekend, in which case it would clinch the division. But assuming a Giants win, a loss at Philly does not impact the Cowboys chances of winning the division.

It's an interesting scenario and it helps me sleep better at night, since I fear the Eagles game much more than the Giants game.

I only post this because everything I read seems to suggest that the Eagles game is a must-win for the Cowboys.
