Cowboys defeat Vikings 27-20

The Vikings will come out on Thursday with a head full of steam. Knowing they could really use a win, Minnesota will put up a great fight. But playing the best team in the NFL, whether at home or on the road, is not easy.

Ezekiel Elliott’s huge day will overshadow the Cowboys’ two turnovers and Patterson’s kick return for a touchdown. A game that is tight all along the way, Dallas will pull away with just under 5 minutes remaining. Again, Minnesota comes short on a game-tying drive.

Even though the Vikes lose this game, they show a lot of life and will give fans plenty of reason to believe the Vikings can win their last 4 games and make the playoffs.

I’m not always right, though, ask my girlfriend… Maybe this will be another time I’m wrong. I mean, Minnesota could really use a victory here for record purposes and momentum purposes. Let’s hope I’m wrong!
