Cowboys win over Seattle leaves open questions about contender status

With Thursday night’s win over the Seattle Seahawks, the Dallas Cowboys finally beat a winning team and took a big step toward cementing their playoff spot. But while a win’s a win, we’re left with just as many questions as before about how Dallas will fare against the NFL elite.

Even before their recent slump when they were 5-2, Seattle was a second-tier NFC team at best. They have since gone 1-4 and haven’t looked like a playoff team in the process. They were blown out by Baltimore and San Francisco, beaten by the sub-500 Rams, and barely won against Washington.
