The Dallas Cowboys (9-4) dominated the Bears (5-8) in a 41-28 win at Soldier Field. The Cowboys did a great job of controlling the tempo of the game and controlling the line of scrimmage throughout the game.

Despite their late struggles, the Cowboys defense put together a very good performances as they played extremely disciplined football. One of the biggest surprises was how well the Cowboys cornerbacks tackled throughout the night.

The Cowboys offense was extremely efficient, as they relied on DeMarco Murray for much of the game. They also got some great contributions from their role players, such as Cole Beasley and Gavin Escobar.

The Cowboys came in with a great game plan on offense and defense, which allowed them to exploit the Bears' weakness all night.

Barry Church had a great night, as he was active in coverage and against the run to go along with his blocked extra point. The Cowboys haven't had a safety who is good in coverage since Darren Woodson retired. Church is not on that level, but the fact that he has shown significant improvement should be a great sign to the Cowboys coaches.

Now, the Cowboys look forward to another game against their division rival, the Philadelphia Eagles, in a game that could decide the NFC East crown.

Let’s take a look at how each position graded out in this Week 14 matchup.
