Vikings Eliminated From Playoffs Before Taking the Field Against Cowboys
The Cowboys, at 6-6-1, must win to maintain playoff chances while the Vikings focus on evaluating rookie QB J.J. McCarthy, per SportsLine's model.
- On Dec 14, 2025, the Dallas Cowboys host the Minnesota Vikings in Sunday Night Football at 8:20 p.m. ET from AT&T Stadium, with Dallas at 6-6-1 fighting for playoff positioning.
- Minnesota's focus is evaluation, as the Vikings are out of postseason contention and assessing J.J. McCarthy, who last week threw a season-best three touchdowns, informing their future plans.
- SportsLine's Machine Learning Model simulates every NFL game 10,000 times and projects Dak Prescott to have 1.2 touchdown passes, favoring his under 1.5 passing TDs at +170 and forecasting 50 combined points with the Over hitting in 53% of simulations.
- Ahead of kickoff, promos from major books include DraftKings offering $200 in bonus bets with a $5 wager, and FanDuel's $150 first-bet bonus, according to SportsLine's model.
- Overs are 9-4 in Cowboys games this season, the highest over rate in the NFL, while five straight Vikings games have gone under and Minnesota was eliminated before Sunday’s game.
