Last week here at BTB we opened the doors to discuss which game could be a potential litmus test for the Dallas Cowboys in 2017. The general consensus seems to agree that it’ll either be when Dallas squares off with the Green Bay Packers, Atlanta Falcons, or one of their match-ups with the division rival New York Giants.
To be clear... a litmus test game is an opportunity to establish a barometer. You’re using that game to find out who you are against formidable foes, similar to the mindset of Cowboys fans entering Weeks 5 and 6 of last season against the Cincinnati Bengals and Green Bay Packers, respectively.
