The @DallasCowboys are back in the #NFLPlayoffs with big expectations and a lot to prove.
Their second consecutive 12-win season has them primed to make a run. Here’s how they got here. (THREAD)
In a Week 1 loss against the Bucs, @Dak Prescott’s hand injury kicked off what was sure to be a rough start to a promising 2022 season.
Questions arose whether the Cowboys could stay afloat until his return.
Enter: backup QB Cooper Rush.
Rush went 4-0 in his first four starts, including two divisional victories and wins over the defending AFC and NFC champions.
The @DallasCowboys were in prime position in the NFC.
Dak would return in Week 7 and pick up where Rush left off, winning 3-out-of-4 against NFC North foes and improving the Cowboys overall record to 7-3.
With the RB duo of Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard, the Cowboys offense exploded, scoring 40+ points four times in the second half of the season.
The @DallasCowboys offensive potential coupled with a Micah Parsons led defense makes them a threat to make a run in the Playoffs.
Offense: #3 in scoring
Defense: #6 in scoring
Is this the year the Cowboys break their Super Bowl drought and bring ring No. 6 to Dallas?
The road starts tonight in Tampa.
