The Dallas Cowboys have their most crucial game of the season ahead of them.
Facing the Philadelphia Eagles and beating them on the road could help them make a statement and make people forget about their humiliating loss against the San Francisco 49ers.
On the flip side, losing this game could have a disastrous effect on their confidence and the narratives around them.
That’s why former NFL star Keyshawn Johnson pointed out the fact that the Cowboys need to be almost perfect, as they simply cannot afford to lose against the two best teams they face all season.

Johnson believes that their entire season could hinge on this game, explaining on “Undisputed” how this could have a massive ripple effect on them psychologically for the rest of the campaign.
He also stated that CeeDee Lamb has to have a perfect game, warning him that he’ll go against an elite secondary, so he won’t have an easy time dominating as happened vs. the Los Angeles Rams.
He also thinks that Micah Parsons needs to be at his best and make Jalen Hurts second-guess and make bad decisions if they want to have a chance to win this game.
Winning the game would help Mike McCarthy’s team put the league on notice.
But losing it would pretty much reaffirm the narrative about them not being able to win against good teams, and as much as the players talk about shutting down all the outside noise, that’s something that could also stick in the back of their heads.
