Cowboys hold on against Vikings for 11th straight win

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (21) tries to break a tackle by Minnesota Vikings strong safety Andrew Sendejo during the first half of an NFL football game Thursday, Dec. 1, 2016, in Minneapolis. We’re probably fortunate to have more games on different days and 2.

“It would have been nice to go out and win it for him”. While Bradford took the more subdued, less controversial road, Vikings defensive lineman Brian Robison felt compelled to speak out about the crucial miss.

The Cowboys defense also held the Vikings’ rushing to just 87 total yards in the game.

“In a situation like this, it’s obviously tough”, Vikings veteran linebacker Chad Greenway said. “It’s what we’re made of”.

Zimmer was diagnosed with a detached retina, missing a game for the first time in his 23-year National Football League coaching career. Mike Zimmer underwent emergency eye surgery Wednesday night and was at home recovering.

Lowering the special teams’ grade further, Vikings’ lone touchdown almost didn’t happen.

“I think you kind of hopefully have been preparing for your whole career”, Priefer said. They have a favorable schedule the rest of the way, with the Packers being the only team left that could be over.500 by the time they meet again.

The Vikings opened 5-0 this season, but the defeat against Dallas was Minnesota’s sixth setback in the past seven games.

Greenway mentioned the 2012 finish when four straight wins led to a 10-6 mark and a Wild Card berth.

Zeke’s 30-yard run in the fourth quarter, which he nearly broke for a TD, led to the Dallas field goal that gave the Cowboys an eight point cushion.

“I hope I’m not needed in that capacity”, Priefer said. “Adam took a chance on (the fumbled punt) because we felt like we had to get some good field position for our offense”.

Minnesota would get the ball back and score on a 3-yard touchdown pass to Jerrick McKinnon from Sam Bradford.

Bradford was 32 of 45 for 247 yards and a touchdown for Minnesota, who were playing without their head coach.

“He told me that I did not get hit in the facemask”, Bradford said, making a face that conveyed his incredulity at the answer. Minnesota K Kai Forbath is 6 of 6 on field-goal attempts since replacing Blair Walsh. “He puts his heart and soul into this, and we’ve got to give it back to him”.

Derek Carr led yet another comeback with two touchdown passes in the second half and Khalil Mack helped force two turnovers that rallied the Raiders to their biggest comeback in 16 years with a 38-24 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

The Vikings have brought plenty of woes on themselves over the past two months by continuing to fail at crunch time. The trash-talking Dez and the polite Dez share one thing in common: they both win. And based on record, they are. But in the end, they limited the unit to just 15 points. The Vikings’ left tackle also jumped early on the play, though, something many fans pointed out. “When you look at the play that Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott scrambled [for 14 yards on a 3rd-and-11], there should have been penalties called on that play and they don’t”.

A rematch in the playoffs? Sherels, who averages 13.4 yards per return, has missed four of the past six games with injuries. This includes the preparation of derivative works of, or the incorporation of such content into other works.
