The Dallas Cowboys experienced another lackluster season in 2022, despite being one of the best teams on paper heading into the campaign. Their performance was impacted by injuries and other setbacks, but they still managed to secure a spot in the playoffs.
Dak Prescott’s Injury
Quarterback Dak Prescott fractured his thumb in the season opener and missed a significant portion of the season early on. Despite being without Prescott at the beginning of the season, the Cowboys still managed to finish the season with a 12-5 record.
NFC East and Wild Card Berth
The Cowboys’ record of 12-5 was good enough for second place in the NFC East and secured them a Wild Card spot in the playoffs. It showed that the team was able to overcome the obstacles they faced during the season and still achieve impressive results.
Playoff Performance
In the playoffs, the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the first round. However, they fell short against the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional round, ending their season on a less than ideal note.
