Can the Dallas Cowboys make a playoff push? | NFL Today

You know what, Nate is just unbelievable. Pregame show, he picked the exact score that would be the final score. Here it is. So, I know they’re going to try to light up the skies. I feel like Pickkins is going to make a big play. CD Lamb is going to step up. He needs to show up for his team. I got the Dallas Cowboys winning this one in a close one. 31 to 28. Oh, Thomas strikes again, baby. Good call on that. The receivers having big games. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they did. Stepped up. Well done, Nate. Thank you. Thank you. And Pickkins, I’ll tell you this. Listen, CD Lamb, he did show up. He said, “My next game will be my best game.” He’s had some drops, but man, was he sure-handed today, but Pickkins, George Pickkins, mark my words, in a matter of time, he will be not a good complimentary 1B or 1A. He will be one of the best receivers in the league. He’s just scratching the surface. But a smart move for the quarterback to get CD Lamb in early. Absolutely. coming off the game that he had the previous week and then to get somebody going. Right. This is where I think Dak is on the next the next level of his career. It’s the ability to manage the guys around you to understand the personalities and to get your playmakers the ball. And we look at these guys today. George Pickkins 13 targets, six catches, 88 yards. I hit on that fan night. Good job. Then we got CD Lamb, seven receptions, 112 yards, and a touchdown. But Dak, Dak to me was the story of this football game. And it’s not only because of the numbers, it’s the end of the game as well. If you’re going to beat the Kansas City Chiefs, we saw Patrick coming back in that game, make some spectacular plays. The scramble to the right, the big play down the field, you’ve got to close them out and you got to finish the game with the ball in your hands. Dak did an excellent job at the end of that ball game. Yeah, I think for the Kansas City Chiefs, this is about penalties. I mean, they sat there, they had five defensive uh interference penalties and also the blitz. Dak against the Blitz, 15 and 19. I’ll tell you, that first series, he did not flinch at all. They could not get any pressure on him. And you think about the Kansas City Chiefs a year ago, very good in one-score games, 12-0. This year they are one and six and then they’re one and five on the road. So they have no margin of error. They got to win out in my opinion to make to the playoffs. Yeah, they got to win out and it’s going to be tough road. Right now they’re on the outside looking in. On the flip side, like Tracy said, you got the Cowboys beating both the Eagles and the Chiefs in back-to-back weeks. Now you’re getting into the latter parts of November and December. if they close this thing out and they continue to play the way they’re playing and like you said, Dak Prescott, we’re not saying it enough and you have been saying it, he is playing some of his best football, not just the way he’s delivering the rock, but how he’s moving and negotiating the pocket with his feet and then getting the ball out. And there was a lot of news made at the beginning of the season for Dallas Cowboys trading Micah Parson. Quinnon Williams coming back in and Overshan coming back. That defense is really playing good football right now. Yeah, that defense is playing well. I mean, they’re they’re they’re humming right now. And you know what? They’re going to be a force to be reckoning with. Yeah, Nate overheard me talking back in the dressing room. I gave that score to him. I’m surprised he’s still My bad, baby. My bad, man. Please. Right, Nate. Right. Happy Thanksgiving. We’ll see you again right here on Sunday. Hey.

Bill Cowher, Nate Burleson, and Matt Ryan recap the Week 13 Thanksgiving matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Dallas Cowboys.
