It is time to give some credit to Mike McCarthy.
We are onto the second week of December and the Dallas Cowboys have nine wins to their name. Life is pretty sweet right now.

Obviously the fact that Dallas has nine wins at the moment means that they are one away from hitting double digits on the season. This has never been a 100% truth and it has certainly changed since the NFL added a 17th game to the regular season, but generally speaking if you win double-digit games in this league you stand a very good chance at going to the playoffs.
