Cowboys Do The Impossible/ Updated Week 13 Standings

HUGE BATTLE IN THE NFC FOR FIRST PLACE

Dallas 19,  Washington 16
The Cowboys and 'Skins staged this new game they're playing these days.  Both teams stink for 3 quarters, and then go nuts in the fourth.  It doesn't matter if they're Doormats or Royalty.  Defenses disintegrate! Incredible blown plays, absurd interceptions, fumbles- whatever it takes. These games are going on all the time-  it's more than usual.   It sure isn't boring.  At least the last quarter.

Whatever is happening, the Cowboys, through a freak of nature, won a game, and fall into a 5-way tie in the NFC Division.  The Browns surpassed the Niners for point differential this week,  -131 to -113.  That's some serious dial-down on scoring.
