As the Dallas Cowboys regular season nears its conclusion, thoughts of legendary Texas Longhorns coach Darrell Royal appear. It wasn’t pretty but was good enough to win the division. Or as Coach Royal once said … “Ol’ ugly is better than ol’ nothing“.

If protecting the football, any NFL team that features an elite runner like Ezekiel Elliott and a suffocating defense is a very dangerous postseason foe.
