The Dallas Cowboys surge after a dominant Monday Night Football win, raising the question: are they truly back in NFC playoff contention, or is their late-season climb too steep? Brian Peacock and Matt Williamson break down how Dak Prescott’s four-touchdown showcase and the impact of new faces like Quinnen Williams could reshape Dallas’ fate. The conversation shifts to the Las Vegas Raiders, spotlighting poor defensive effort and coaching woes as Pete Carroll and Chip Kelly’s leadership comes under scrutiny.

The hosts also examine the grim outlooks for the Atlanta Falcons and Cincinnati Bengals, putting both teams’ playoff hopes to rest. With Michael Penix sidelined and questionable front-office moves—including the costly trade for pass rusher James Pearce—the Falcons face a tough offseason. Meanwhile, the Bengals’ historically bad defense and stubborn team structure leave fans wondering whether Joe Burrow’s career will be wasted.
