Here at Blogging The Boys, we’ve been faithfully tracking the Cowboys’ playoff chances since Week 1, undeterred by their recent three-game slide, and encouraged by their win over the Eagles on Sunday.
In last week’s playoff tracker, we looked at why the Cowboys faced a must-win game against the Eagles:
If the Cowboys beat the Eagles and improve to 4-3, their playoff odds jump to 51%. If they lose and drop to 3-4, their playoff odds drop to just 15%.
Well, the Cowboys won, and their playoff odds rocketed skyward, just as the Eagles’ odds plummeted like Ed Harris into the abyss.
