While no longer eligible to win the NFC East or even make the playoffs in 2024, the Cowboys still have a role to play.

With Dallas seemingly uninterested in tanking, their continued maximum effort could be disruptive in these finals weeks of the regular season.
The Cowboys are headed to Philadelphia this Sunday and then return home for the Week 18 finale against Washington. The Eagles failed to seal the deal on a division crown last week, narrowly losing to the Commanders and leaving the door open for disaster.
