The Thanksgiving tradition of having the Dallas Cowboys play has been one of the highlights of every year but this year it feels a little more important than in recent memory.
Last year's Turkey Day game was spoiled by a dominating performance from the Philadelphia Eagles and this year the Cowboys drew the 10-0 Carolina Panthers. That is the way of the NFL, after watching how poor the NFC South was last season, many fans thought that would lead to some easy pickings for the 'Boys. That hasn't been the case as the Cowboys have become the NFC South's whipping boy.
