haha I knew someone would male that claim. Had we lost, you know damn well the claim would have been deemed a big game Dak lost.

No doubt had we lost the Dak haters would’ve claimed it was a big game. Lol

When the Cowboys lost to Denver last season, they bounced back and beat Atlanta 40-3 only to become inconsistent after that. Hopefully we can maintain the intensity we displayed today the remainder of the season.

Beating last year's bad Atlanta team at home is not the same as beating the Vikings who had the best record in the NFL at their house.

The Vikings are clearly better than Denver was last season, but the Cowboys were favored to win this game. We’ll see what Cowboys team shows up on Thursday.

The vikings are tied for best record in the NFL but that's not considered a big game? LOL okay Kjj

We were favored by 1 point. This wasn't a just a win but a total beat down vs a very good team in their house. It doesn't guarantee anything rest of the season, but this win doesn't compare to the win against the terrible Falcons at home last year.

We need 2 treat every single game from this point forward as a playoff game. Just win. Great game today by the staff, players, everyone. THIS is what we can do when all phases are doing their jobs. We have the right guys. We just beat a damn great team in their building that was white hot. The manner by which we beat them was stunning. We sent a clear message 2 the league. WE COMIN!

Doesn’t matter what their record it’s still too early for it to be a “big” game. We would still be in good shape record wise had we lost today. The “big” games are coming in December.

Well by that logic, what if all the games in December we are wayyyy ahead standings wise, so much that even a loss wouldn't affect us making playoffs?

What we did today won’t matter much if we show up flat in four days against the Giants. We’ll see what the Cowboys look like on Thanksgiving. They haven’t won a Thanksgiving game since 2018.

Then they won’t be big games, however how we play could affect our momentum entering the playoffs. We won’t be way ahead in the standings, we’re going to need to win some of those games.

I missed a lot of the game. What happened?
Game was cut away to the more "competitive" Bengals/Steelers contest. This particular Cowboys fan would prefer seeing Dallas winning by 70+ points before ever thinking about switching to another game. And it had to be Pittsburgh too, one of the three teams I detest in the NFL.

That doesn't mean anything. We didn't play the Giants on Thanksgiving every year since 2018.
