Mike McCarthy and the Dallas Cowboys got an incredible 34-26 win on the road against the Washington Commanders. It was an epic fourth quarter in which Jayden Daniels almost delivered an amazing comeback.

The Cowboys’ defense had a a very solid performance during the first three quarters, but, in the final four minutes of the game, they allowed 17 points. If it wasn’t for a missed extra point by Austin Seibert, what looked like a comfortable victory would have gone to overtime.

Now, Jerry Jones and the franchise are in a very strange situation. They have no chances to fight for the Super Bowl, Dak Prescott is out for the rest of the year and, thanks to the win at Washington, America’s Team massively hurt their chances to get a top player in the next draft.

“We just had some out of balance games and it’s just good to see that we’ve learned from it. We’re getting players back like DaRon (Bland) and Micah (Parsons) full speed. We are a growing football team. I think you’re starting to see the benefit of a lot of young players playing early. Hopefully, the fruits of those moments are starting to come into play here.”
