The Dallas Cowboys are kindling for any kind of overreactions column, and so we begin this week with their inexplicable loss to what's left of the Philadelphia Eagles. In a game that could have clinched the NFC East after a frustrating season of stops and starts, the Cowboys failed to score a single touchdown. The Eagles begged them time and again to take the game and the division, and Dallas just kept turning it down.
Astoundingly, the Cowboys are not dead yet. The Eagles still need to beat the Giants -- a terrible team, yes, but a team the Eagles needed overtime to beat at home two weeks ago with their backup quarterback starting -- or have the Cowboys lose to Washington to claim the division title.
