It was a meaningless game, so we thought.
The Dallas Cowboys had very little to gain from beating the Philadelphia Eagles Saturday night in terms of playoff positioning. Let me rephrase that, the Cowboys stood a very low chance of moving out of that dreaded no. 4 spot and were staring in the face of a tough Wild Card matchup against the NFC West runner-up.
But yet, there they were, rolling their starters on the field and subjecting them to the possibility of injury that could come back and bite them in the playoffs.
