Twitter reacts to Cowboys ending losing streak and staying in playoff contention
Fans reacted on Twitter once the Cowboys clinched a surprising victory over the Vikings.
The Dallas Cowboys improved to 3-7 with a victory Sunday and are now right in the thick of the NFC East race. That is 2020 in a nutshell.
Andy Dalton made his return and threw for three touchdowns, while Ezekiel Elliott got back to his old ways with 103 yards on the ground. Fans on Twitter were finally able to share some excitement after four straight losses.
A COWBOYS WIN.

Twitter reacts to Cowboys ending rough losing streak
The Cowboys would have been set up for a high draft pick with a loss. That remains true with the win, but fans still want to celebrate.
Cowboys fans: Lose! Get a better pick!

According to Tankathon, the Cowboys now hold the No. 4 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Only 0.5 game back of the NFC East.
Dallas doesn’t get too much time to bask in the victory as they are back on Thanksgiving in what has become an important matchup against Washington. Both teams enter at 3-7 and the winner will jump into the top spot in the division.

Unreal how do the cowboys win this game, on the road. HC, OC, and DC deserve a lot of credit. But I’m still team tank haha

The Cowboys appear to at least be competent with Andy Dalton at quarterback. Even Garrett Gilbert nearly took down the undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers so perhaps fans did see the true NFC East favorite in the win on the road in Minnesota.
Every Cowboys player needs a pat on the back. I know it doesn’t seem like a big deal since the entire NFC East is not doing great at all, but y’all definitely showed up tonight and it was appreciated!! #DallasCowboys

The NFC East is an absolute disaster and it is possible a team with five or six wins hosts a home playoff game. Fans in Dallas are now divided between tanking and winning the division, so Twitter should be a fun place to see the battle in real-time.
I’m absolutely pro “team tank”. But the super fan in me will not allow myself to be upset about a W. How bout them cowboys baby

Next. CeeDee Lamb submits catch of the year candidate. dark
The Cowboys are either going to pick near the top of the 2021 NFL Draft or host a playoff game. For now, fans can enjoy the insanity of the NFC East and this 2020 Cowboys season.
