The Dallas Cowboys have lost three straight games, and sit with a 2-5 record. The last time this team was 2-5 was back in 2015, when they were in the middle of a seven-game losing streak and finished the season at 4-12. And just like 2015, the Cowboys lost their starting quarterback early in the season, and simply lost their way as a football team without him.

Things don’t get any easier this week, or any subsequent week for that matter. Mathematically, they still have plenty of chances to take down the division, but math and reality don’t really align. Even still, with the interest on future opponents, let’s take a look to see how some of their eventual opponents fared this past weekend.
