Because the Cowboys are undefeated within their division (NFC East) which the NFL uses as a tie breaker.

I don't understand NFL way of calculating playoffs. You need to be Carl Sagan and Albert Einstein and Steven Hawking and John Nash to understand it.
Now who was it that said "the "Cowboys can't win a game"????
It's OK, we all eat a little crow now and then....
Because BB posted a list of astrophysicists/mathematicians and you were responding to BB’s post. I for one don’t think about professional athletes nor do I buy sports merchandise because some athlete’s name or number is on it. I tuned them out and support high school student athletes.
As far as the Pokes or JJ go, they could all move to Arkansas and leave Texas with the hapless Texans.
They have to get past two BAYS in the playoffs. 12-3 Green and 11-3 Tampa with the Brady guy! Ain't gonna be no Super Bowl for them Cowboys!!
Back on 12/24
So they had a playoff spot with home field advantage and a bye week.
Tonight's loss they gave that up and are now on the road with no bye week and playing as a wild card team.
One more week to go. If they lose next Sunday and depending on how the other teams do, they may not even get that wild card spot.
Would that ^^^^ possibly force JJ into retirement? Poke fans could only hope.
It’s pretty simple now. All hinges on the 49ers / rams game next week. Rams win and cowboys play cardinals in playoff. Rams lose, and cowboys play rams in playoffs.
