Will the Cowboys make the playoffs in 2024?

The Dallas Cowboys have a 3-4 record and are in third place of the NFC East behind the Washington Commanders the Philadelphia Eagles. In the wild card race, they’re two games behind for the No. 7 spot. Dak Prescott warned his teammates that there’s no more margin of error.

“Yes. This is a must win game. To me, every game is but obviously I mean, 3-4, as I’ve said, a lot of season left but the first start to be able to say that confidently is getting back even. Especially having a couple of home games after that.”

The Cowboys have currently a 22% chance to make the playoffs and face a really tough schedule ahead with games against the Falcons, Eagles, Texans and Commanders.

A win at Atlanta puts that number up to 33%, but, a loss facing Kirk Cousins might be the end of their season with the playoff chances falling all the way down to 15%.
