| Phoenix Stadium. Dallas seized control of the division race by going 4-0 in November, following up a pair of double-digit home victories by coming out on top in a couple of nail-biters. The surge has given the Cowboys a one-game edge on the slumping New York Giants for first place heading into the season's stretch run. Continuing such success late in the year has often been elusive, however. Dallas hasn't posted a winning record in December since 1996 and is just 5-7 in the month over the past three campaigns. |

In Week 15 of 1998, the Giants hosted and beat a 13-0 Denver Broncos squad on the way to finishing 8-8 and missing the NFC |

The Falcons have the NFC's No. 2 Wild Card position heading into Week 13, but remain within striking distance of a pursuit pack comprised of Detroit (7-4) and the New York Giants (6-5). Chicago, also at 7-4, has the No. 1 Wild Card slot through 12 weeks. In Houston, Atlanta faces the No. 1 defense in the league, but offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey claims the Texans' success is more about execution than exotics. 'It's not |
