The Cowboys traveled to Minnesota on Thursday night to take on the Minnesota Vikings, their third game in just 12 days. Despite the quick turnaround from Thanksgiving, they won -- albeit not easily. It was a hard-fought game from both sides that was decided in the final 30 seconds when the Vikings missed a 2-point conversion that would have tied the game at 17 apiece. The final score was 17-15, giving the Cowboys their 11th straight victory and adding fuel to the fire that is #CowboysNation.
