The Dallas Cowboys will be back in action on Sunday to take on the Minnesota Vikings in Week 15. They had a few extra days to prepare with their last game taking place on Thursday in Week 14.
That game was a tough one for Dallas, as they lost to the Detroit Lions 44-30. Initially, it seemed as though this loss would end their playoff hopes, but the Cowboys were given a lifeline when the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night.

Winning four consecutive games is always a tough task, and the Cowboys will be at a disadvantage this weekend with their injury report leaving them thin while the Vikings enter the game relatively healthy.
