• New head coach Mike McCarthy felt the growing pains during his inaugural season in Dallas, struggling mightily to integrate his philosophy into new surroundings 
• Perhaps sensing the impending shipwreck, stalwart TE Jason Witten (who had returned to his longtime vestiges the previous season after a brief retirement) ditched the Boys for the black and silver pastures of the newly minted Las Vegas Raiders
• Franchise QB Dak Prescott suffered a devastating ankle injury in week 5 crippling both him and the team for the rest of the season
• Defeated the Minnesota Vikings 31-28 during week 11’s semi-annual ‘Tude Dude/Indigo Gamer Bowl featuring our 2 favorite squads
• Somehow remained in contention for the pathetic NFC “Least” after a late-season 3 game winning-streak ultimately falling 1 game behind the Washington Football Team at the conclusion
