The Cowboys have had an uneven season, hovering in the middling part of the NFC as they try to regain consistency. Their defense and offense combined for a strong 33-16 win over the Raiders at Allegiant Stadium, lifting Dallas to 4-5-1 and giving the team renewed hope in the playoff chase.
The victory featured immediate impact from new additions and big plays across phases. Quinnen Williams recorded four tackles and 1.5 sacks in his debut, Logan Wilson added two tackles, and the Cowboys held Las Vegas to 236 total yards and just 4.5 yards per pass. After being briefly benched to open the game, CeeDee Lamb returned to finish with five catches, 66 yards and a touchdown. George Pickens posted nine catches for 144 yards and a 37-yard TD from Dak Prescott.

When asked to assemble a Survivor Series-style team of Cowboys greats, The Undertaker had fun with the idea, naming Larry Allen and Tyron Smith, then Randy White and Ed “Too Tall” Jones as his four-man squad. He joked about who would manage the team before settling on the theatrical choice of Paul Bearer. The exchange was lighthearted and underscored his die-hard fandom.
“ll right, so who would be the manager? Is it Michael Irvin, or is it, who is it, Jerry Jones?” asked Kyle Brandt.

“It ain’t gonna be Jerry Jones. Because he had to trade two of those guys away from me before I could get to the pay-per-view…I think I’m gonna go back, I’m gonna take Paul Bearer with me,” Undertaker said.
The conversation took place during media appearances tied to his Cowboys commentary.
