The Dallas Cowboys faced a challenging start to the season with a 3-7 record, but they turned things around with a surprising 34-26 victory over the Washington Commanders in Week 12. Despite their struggles, linebacker Micah Parsons emphasized the team's determination to fight and not tank for a better draft pick.

In a game where the Cowboys' defense shined, they limited the Commanders to just nine points for most of the match. Parsons expressed the need for the team to improve, particularly in closing out games, as they prepare to face the New York Giants on Thanksgiving Day.
