The Dallas Cowboys have a slim chance of earning a playoff spot this season.
There are just three games left in the regular season and Dallas will need to win all three games and then a lot of help in order to earn a playoff spot. The Cowboys will face off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday and then follow it up with a clash against one of their biggest rivals the following week against the Philadelphia Eagles.
If the Cowboys want to make the playoffs, an Eagles win over the Washington Commanders this week is a necessity. Then, the Cowboys will need to take the Eagles down next week and then the Commanders in Week 18.
Cowboys star Micah Parsons was asked if he’d be rooting for the Eagles this weekend against the Commanders and took a shot at Philadelphia instead as shared by The Athletic’s Jon Machota.
“Micah Parsons will not be rooting for the Eagles this week vs. Washington,” Machota said. “The Cowboys need Washington to lose to keep their slim playoff hopes alive:
“Nah, at this point, it’s (expletive) Philly, now,” Parsons said. “Even if we got eliminated, like, I gotta crush Philly. (Expletive) them. I hate them now. I be seeing them talk so much on social (media).”
Although Parsons may not like the Eagles, a Philadelphia win over Washington this week would help Dallas.
