The Dallas Cowboys slim playoff hopes took a hit on Sunday when the team lost to the Green Bay Packers 28-7 at Lambeau Field. The Cowboys defense kept them in the game until late in the fourth quarter, but the offense once again showed that it is simply not good enough as a unit. Dallas’ offensive ineptitude has cost the team wins on several occasions, and Week 14’s loss to the Packers was just another in a long list of uninspiring 2015 performances. And yet somehow the Cowboys are still alive in the hunt for the postseason.
Dallas entered the week having just beaten the division leading Washington Redskins on a late fourth quarter Dan Bailey field goal to pull within one game of first place.
