That was a pretty good win by the Chicago Bears. Even thought the final score ended up being closer, they were dominant against the Cowboys. Offensively they played well. This was one of the best performance Mitchell Trubisky has had, he looked pretty solid and did a good job of using his legs. The Bears offense was able to move against the Cowboys well and the Cowboys defense didn't do much to stop them. Allen Robinson had a nice game. Nice win for the Bears to keep their playoff hopes alive.

OTOH it was another rough performance by Dallas. They played poorly on both sides of the ball. After their long opening drive, things really went downhill for them. Dak struggled throwing the ball throughtout much of the game including the first half. He threw behind receivers and missed several throws. The defense didn't play well and kept doing things like missing tackles. And frustrations continue to mount for the team and were on full display throughtout this game as it got away from them. Though, because of their weaker division, the Cowboys still could win it at 9-7. But they would have to win out and beat the Eagles. A silver lining for the Cowboys is that the Eagles have been struggling even more than they have. But the Eagles have an easier remaining schedule than the Cowboys do and could also win it.

The Cowboys/Eagles match up in a few weeks could be huge and could determine who wins the division. Who knows with the way these two teams have been playing lately, the winner of the division might even have like an 8-8 record. Regardless of who wins it, I think they will probably be one and done in the playoffs. I don't see either team really beating any of the other teams in the NFC that will make the playoffs.
