It wasn’t that long ago that the Dallas Cowboys were 4-12.
In fact, it was last season.
Today, they’re 13-3, NFC East champions and have home-field advantage throughout the playoffs as the top seed. They’ll host a divisional playoff game Jan. 15 at AT&T Stadium.
“The only thing that matters is what we do now. We have put ourselves in a great position, and it is time to get back to work,” Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said.
Going from worst to first is hard to do in the NFL, but it’s not uncommon.
The Cowboys’ resurgence marks the 13th time in the past 14 seasons that one or more teams went from last or tied for last place to a division championship the following year.
