After a 44-17 win over the Washington Redskins, the Dallas Cowboys have improved their record in December to …. 4-0.
If you don’t understand the significance of this, you are not an avid Cowboys watcher.
Forgive the harshness, but based on popular perception, the Cowboys are known as ‘Chokers’; they are the losers of December and a surefire early exiter in January if they are lucky enough to make it there.
Having finally broken the trend, and with both QB Tony Romo and RB DeMarco Murray playing remarkably well, could this finally be “the year” for the Cowboys?(Super Bowl? Tony Romo MVP?)
Below are some tweets on this trending topic.
The #DallasCowboys are 4-0 in December!!! With this momentum could we be Super Bowl bound?! I Hope So!

@sjacowski Romo leads NFL in QB Rating. Leads in completion %. 8-0 on the road. 4-0 in December. 36 TD/8 INT. He’s easy vote if I had one.
