Christmas Day Showdown: Which NFL Teams Are Poised for Unforgettable Holiday Victory?
Two straight losses to open December, however, put a significant dent in any postseason plans and they were eliminated with the Philadelphia Eagles’ NFC East-clinching 29-18 win over the Washington Commanders on Saturday. Then for good measure, the Cowboys’ losing streak extended to three games with Sunday’s 34-17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Commanders’ latest loss was their ninth in 10 games, and the Cowboys contributed to this brutal stretch, rolling to their most convincing win of the season – a 44-22 thrashing in Week 7. Dallas (6-8-1) has won four of the last five meetings with Washington (4-11), scoring 45, 38, 34 and 44 in those victories, and is considered the favorite in this one by the Opta supercomputer, winning 64.8% of pregame simulations.
