<p>Thanks to the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/washington-redskins" class="sbn-auto-link">Washington Redskins</a>' huge 23-10 upset of the <a href="https://www.bigblueview.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">New York Giants</a> on Sunday, the <a href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Dallas Cowboys</a> have regained control of their own destiny in the NFC East race despite having lost to the Giants on Sunday night a week prior:</p>
<p> </p>
<ul>
<li>The Cowboys (8-6) can clinch the division by winning their last two games, vs. Philadelphia (6-8) and at the Giants (7-7). The Giants. </li>
<li>Just like the Cowboys, the Giants are still in control of their destiny, too: If they beat the <a href="https://www.ganggreennation.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">New York Jets</a> (8-6) and Dallas, they'll win the NFC East.</li>
<li>The Cowboys can wrap up the NFC East this week if they beat the <a href="https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Eagles</a> (handing Philly their ninth loss) to become 9-6, and the Giants lose to the Jets, falling to 7-8. </li>
<li>If both the Giants and Cowboys lose next week, the two teams (7-8 New York, 8-7 Dallas) would still meet on January 1 with a chance for the Cowboys to clinch the NFC East. But if a 7-8 Giants team wins...</li>
<li>The Eagles can win the division. If Philly wins out to finish 8-8 (they end their schedule at Washington on New Year's Day), they could win the NFC East if the Jets beat the Giants and then the Giants beat the Cowboys.</li>
<li>Again though, controlled destiny: A Dallas win over the Eagles or Giants win over the Jets next week would mathematically eliminate Philadelphia from the NFC Playoffs. </li>
</ul>

<p>With a one-sided 23-10 affair in the books, the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/washington-redskins">Washington Redskins</a> just downed the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigblueview.com/">New York Giants</a>, putting the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/">Cowboys</a> back in to sole possession of first place.</p>
<p>Really, that headline could also read "Giants help Cowboys," since it was more the Giants playing below expectations than the Redskins rising above them, with <span>Eli Manning</span> throwing three interceptions and repeated flubs by <span>Hakeem Nicks</span>. Credit should also go to the relentless pressure the Redskins managed, however.</p>
<p>The loss, coupled with the Cowboys win Saturday, guarantees Dallas will survive at least to Week 17 in playoff contention, and also guarantees the Cowboys have the intra-conference tie-breaker. Scenario run-down after the jump.</p>

<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.fieldgulls.com/">Seahawks</a> (shockingly .500) also managed to upset the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.windycitygridiron.com/">Bears</a> in Chicago, giving the Cowboys slightly better hopes at the wild card, but we are most likely looking at a repeat of 2008. Win, you're in. Lose, and have a bitter rivalry game to dwell on for the off-season.</p>

<p><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/">Dallas Cowboys</a> defensive tackle <span>Jay Ratliff</span> was caught on camera snapping on ESPN Dallas reporter Calvin Watkins and needed to be restrained by Cowboys teammates in the locker room after answering questions from Watkins about former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver <span>Sam Hurd</span>, who was recently released by the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.windycitygridiron.com/">Chicago Bears</a> after drug trafficking charges filed on Hurd.</p>
<p>Per Watkins twitter feed:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Had a confrontation with a player today I shouldn't have let escalate. I regret not walking away. onward to Saturday in Tampa. -- <a href="http://www.twitter.com/calvinwatkins">@CalvinWatkins</a></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Who knows what words were ultimately exchanged between Ratliff and Watkins, but its clear that whatever the beat writer asked it infuriated the Pro Bowl defensive tackle. Some have questioned the relationship Hurd might have had with NFL players, especially in regards to providing cocaine and marijuana to players.</p>
<p>Here is the video of the exchange. Thoughts?</p>

<p>The staff at SB Nation Dallas picks the winner of each and every Week 15 game.</p> <p>The season continues to fly by, as Week 15 already has two games in the books. Everybody here at SB Nation Dallas picked the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/atlanta-falcons">Falcons</a> and <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/">Cowboys</a> to win in the Thursday and Saturday night games -- those weren't exactly tough games to pick.</p>
<p>Here's the rest of our Week 15 picks, with some pretty great matchups, but also a slew of ugly ones. </p>
<p> </p>
<p><b><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.thephinsider.com/">Dolphins</a> (4-9) at <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.buffalorumblings.com/">Bills</a> (5-8) - </b>It was fun while it lasted in Buffalo, wasn't it? Nobody should ever trust Chan Gailey.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Christopher Fittz: <b>Bills</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Robbie Griffin: <b>Bills</b> - </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">The Bills worse game protecting <span>Ryan Fitzpatrick</span> this year was against the Dolphins. Keep an eye on that in the rematch.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Liam Ponting: <b>Bills - </b>It started off so well for Buffalo....</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Maurice London: <b>Bills - </b>The Bills get a win because the Dolphins front office is in utter disarray.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Brett Perryman: <b>Dolphins - </b>The Bills are a mess. They are pretty good at home at least.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">JP Starkey: <b>Bills - </b>Firing Tony Sparano is a big mistake.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.fieldgulls.com/">Seahawks</a> (6-7) at <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.windycitygridiron.com/">Bears</a> (7-6) </b>- Boy, the Bears sure miss Jay Cutler. After getting Tebowed last week, the Bears really need a win this week to stay afloat in the NFC playoff picture.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Fittz: <b>Bears</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Griffin: <b>Bears -</b> </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Not that I believe in Haney a whole lot, but hosting the Seahawks is winnable for anyone. Also, west coast team playing early game.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Ponting: <b>Bears -</b> </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">This is an incredibly difficult game to pick. I have to either take Seattle on the road or a Caleb Hanie-led Bears team. Good God.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Seahawks -</b> Teams play hard for Pete Carroll. I don't know how Seattle is doing this.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Bears </b>- Huge game for Chicago to try to save their season and Seattle isn't good on the road.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Bears - </b>Seattle just won't win on the road here.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/">Titans</a> (7-6) at <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.stampedeblue.com/">Colts</a> (0-13) - </b>Time is running out on the Colts to get that win, and it doesn't look like it'll be this week with the Titans jockeying for a playoff spot.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Fittz: <b>Titans</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Griffin: <b>Titans</b> - </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">We waited 30 years to see a team go 0-16, and now we might only have to wait three years to see it again?</span>
</li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Ponting: <b>Titans </b>- </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Suck for Luck nearing the finish line.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Titans - </b>It's almost over, Colts fans.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Titans -</b> If I'm the Colts I'm targeting Week 17 at JAX for my one shot at a win.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Titans - </b>What are the odds <span>Peyton Manning</span> is on the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/washington-redskins">Redskins</a> next year?</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.acmepackingcompany.com/">Packers</a> (13-0) at <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.arrowheadpride.com/">Chiefs</a> (5-8) -</b> The pursuit of perfection takes a pitstop in Kansas City to take on the Romeo Crennel coached Chiefs...and the <span>Tyler Palko</span> quarterbacked Chiefs. This could get ugly in a hurry.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Fittz: <b>Packers</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Griffin: <b>Packers -</b> </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Often teams that go deep in to the season undefeated finally lose in a spot you don't circle on the calendar. This is that game for the Packers, but I think they're just too good for it to be terribly likely.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Ponting: <b>Packers </b>- </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">One more chance for the Packers to be beaten and this isn't it.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Packers - </b>Get ready for a lot of Mercury Morris on your television sets.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Packers - </b>They have this, then Christmas and New Year's Day Lambeau celebrations against Chicago and Detroit for 16-0. I'm thinking they'll do it.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Packers - </b>I can't be the only one rooting for the Packers to go 18-0 and then lose to the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.patspulpit.com/">Patriots</a> in the Super Bowl, can I?</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.cincyjungle.com/">Bengals</a> (7-6) at <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/st-louis-rams">Rams</a> (2-11) - </b>Cincinnati may have blown their wild card chances last week after losing to the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.battleredblog.com/">Texans</a> in the waning seconds of the game, but this should be a nice rebound for <span>Andy Dalton</span> and the Gingers.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Fittz: <b>Bengals</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Griffin: <b>Bengals - </b></span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Sloppy good beats sloppy bad.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Ponting: <b>Bengals </b>- The Rams are a disaster.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Bengals</b> - Poor Bengals. Must suck to have your playoff hopes dashed by TJ Yates.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Bengals -</b> The rookie ginger is on the cusp of a winning season, pretty amazing.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Bengals - </b>St. Louis is really really bad.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/">Saints</a> (10-3) at <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.dailynorseman.com/">Vikings</a> (2-11) - </b>Remember when this was the NFC title game a couple years ago when <span>Brett Favre</span> was playing great before reverting back to the ol' bad boy gunslinger? </p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Fittz: <b>Saints</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Griffin: <b>Saints - </b></span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">I like seeing an ugly game on the docket.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Ponting: <b>Saints </b>- </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Saints are far too good for the Vikings.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Saints - </b>Have to keep up with the Niners for the 2 seed.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Saints -</b> Two teams going in completely opposite directions.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Saints - </b>Minnesota is not good, but hey, at least Adrian Peterson is playing.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b>Redskins (4-9) at <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigblueview.com/">Giants</a> (7-6) </b>- Thanks to Dallas' win last night, the pressure is on New York to win this game. Which they should, but the Redskins do enjoy randomly playing well, so this could be close. Could be.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Fittz: <b>Giants</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Griffin: <b>Giants -</b> </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">It's disgusting how much I want the Redskins to win a football game right now.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Ponting: <b>Giants </b>- </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Giants save their season and now smell blood in the water.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Giants - </b>Elite Eli, everybody. I hate this season so much.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Giants - </b>Expect the Skins to play their tails off and the Giants to not, but they'll make enough plays to slip out still tied for the division.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Giants- </b>The Giants will be looking ahead to the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.ganggreennation.com/">Jets</a> game...but they'll still win.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.catscratchreader.com/">Panthers</a> (4-9) at Texans (10-3) -</b> Are the Texans really 10-3 despite playing with the practice squad active all year? That's actually sort of impressive. </p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Fittz: <b>Texans</b></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Griffin: <b>Texans -</b> </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Not buying too much in to the <span>T.J. Yates</span> experiment, but the Texans defense at home ought to be too much for the Fighting Newtons.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Ponting: <b>Texans </b>- </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">TJ Yates...maybe not as bad as I thought?</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Panthers - </b>TJ Yates is no Cam Newton. Cam's got this.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Texans </b>- The Houston defense is great, but T.J. Yates will probably need more than 20 points this time.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Panthers - </b>They'll be able to score more than T.J. Yates.</span></li>

<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 8px;">Griffin: <b>Lions </b>- </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">I think the Raiders have a real shot to help the Cowboys out here, but I'm not banking on it.</span>
</li>
<li>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 7px;">Ponting: <b>Raiders - </b></span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Needed one upset, so I'll play up the long road trip and Detroit's not-so-great road play.</span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">London: <b>Raiders -</b> I have no faith in <span>Carson Palmer</span> but I'm counting on them showing up at home after getting embarrassed.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Perryman: <b>Lions -</b> The Lions are going to make the playoffs.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Starkey: <b>Raiders - </b>Detroit's implosion continues. Are these the two least disciplined teams in the league? Somebody might get stabbed in this game.</span></li>

<li><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 6px;">Ponting: <b>Patriots - </b>Must watch TV for me. I'm completely caught up in Tebowmania.</span></li>

<p>After yesterday's rousing 31-15 victory over Tampa Bay and it's semi-pro effort, the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/">Dallas Cowboys</a> find themselves sitting at 8-6 with a temporary half-game lead over the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigblueview.com/">New York Giants</a> in the race for NFC East supremacy. Quarterback <span>Tony Romo</span> continued to make his claim to being the best of the rest; the top quarterback not named Rodgers-Brees-Brady. His 133.9 QB rating yesterday was augmented by his first rushing touchdown since Week 2 of the 2009 season. He is now the only QB other than <span>Aaron Rodgers</span> to reach 30 total touchdowns on the season without having double-digit interceptions (Romo has 9).</p>
<p>The defense held the Bucs to 55 first half yards and only 190 for the game, despite playing the entire second half with <span>DeMarcus Ware</span> and <span>Jay Ratliff</span> sitting out to rest nagging shoulder and rib injuries respectively. After the total team effort, the Cowboys can now sit back and watch some football like the rest of us do; hoping to get some assistance from the opponents of playoff-position enemies.</p>
<p>The New York Giants host NFC East bottom-dwelling Washington, as the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/washington-redskins">Redskins</a> have lost eight of their past nine games. The team was uber-competitive last week against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.patspulpit.com/">Patriots</a>, giving their loyal and temporary fans some hope that the offense can exploit a Giants defense not much better than New England's.</p>
<p>If the Giants manage to lose their next two (pseudo-road game against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.ganggreennation.com/">Jets</a>) and Dallas can exact revenge against Philly, the Week 17 matchup between the clubs will be rendered moot. If they only lose one, or none, then the Cowboys have to defeat the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/">Eagles</a> due to tiebreaker rules. Either way, Dallas controls it's own NFC East destiny.</p>
<p>As for a Wild Card chance if the Cowboys end up 9-7, there are a myriad of scenarios and teams still mathematically alive. For the Cowboys, though, nothing matters unless the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.prideofdetroit.com/">Detroit Lions</a> lose all of their remaining games starting with today against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/oakland-raiders">Oakland Raiders</a>. Well, there's a chance that Detroit and Chicago end up tied for second place in the North and Chicago wins that first elimination (intra-division) and then the Cowboys have those tiebreakers over the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.windycitygridiron.com/">Bears</a>. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.nfl.com/standings/tiebreakingprocedures">Playoff tiebreakers are convoluted to say the least.</a></p>
<p>Regardless, there are two main games of focus for the Cowboys to watch today. The early Giants-Redskins tilt, followed by the late kickoff of Detroit at Oakland. For a bonus, the Cowboys could use a Jets victory over the Eagles to officially end Philly's distant chances and crush their spirits.</p>

<p>The Cowboys held of a 15-point Buccaneers third quarter rally to improve to 8-6 on the year. The fourth quarter saw no points by either team. The Cowboys were concentrating on not having the same result that have plagued them this year by giving up a second half lead before ultimately losing. <span style="background-color: transparent;">The Cowboys offense pulled itself back in and ran the ball more often than passing to run the clock down.</span></p>
<p>The Bucs made an attempt to get back in this game on their first drive of the fourth quarter and even converting a fourth down attempt, but they were unable to move the ball and turned the ball over on their second fourth down attempt of the drive.</p>

<p>The Cowboys lost rookie left tackle Tyron Smith to a left shoulder injury late in the Cowboys’ 31-15 win over Tampa Bay Saturday night. Smith exited the game with 1:48 remaining in the game and Dallas burning off the remainder of the clock.</p>
<p>After walking to the sideline Smith had his neck and shoulder tested and appeared not to be seriously injured. He did not return to the game.</p>
