Happy Victory Monday, Dallas Cowboys Nation. The Cowboys are back on the winning side after a dominant performance against the Carolina Panthers.
With the win, Dallas moves to 6-8 on the season and keeps their slim playoff hopes alive.
But, for those hoping for a high draft pick, the Cowboys late-season wins has them tumbling down the draft order. Up next is a meeting with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 16.
While we wait for the preparations to begin, let's take a look around at some of the headlines making waves on social media.
