For the second-straight season, the Dallas Cowboys limped into their bye week one game below .500 at 3-4. In the Jason Garrett-era, only three times have the Cowboys been below .500 at the bye, with 2015 being the lost season that nobody likes to talk about. Even last season, after losing back-to-back games to the Rams and Packers, the Cowboys followed up that 2-3 start with a 7-4 finish. Now, 9-7 still wasn’t enough to make the playoffs but the team hopes that they can salvage this season. At least, that’s clearly what message they are trying to send after their bye week moves.
