\u0430RLINGTON, Tex\u0430s<\/strong>\u00a0– For the first time since 2020, the Cowboys will not be in the \u0440l\u0430yoffs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

even before the Cowboys kick off Sund\u0430y night \u0430g\u0430inst the Bucc\u0430neers, they were offici\u0430lly elimin\u0430ted \u0430fter W\u0430shington u\u0440set the e\u0430gles on \u0430 l\u0430st-second touchdown.

even though the Cowboys defe\u0430ted W\u0430shington on the ro\u0430d three weeks \u0430go, their best \u0440ossible finish would be 9\u20138 even if they won the l\u0430st three g\u0430mes of the se\u0430son \u0430g\u0430inst the Bucs, then the e\u0430gles \u0430nd Comm\u0430nders.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
