During the five-game win streak that the Dallas Cowboys were on the same conversation was going on in my head. It was centered around a hypothetical playoff game for the Dallas Cowboys against the San Francisco 49ers for the third year in a row. After Dallas lost to San Francisco earlier this season, it would be impossible to pick the Cowboys against the 49ers given recent history.
But the win streak gave birth to a new sort of optimism, one that still exists despite last week’s horrible loss, and maybe there was a way where I would pick Dallas to upset Thanos.
