While there’s absolutely nothing to celebrate, Dallas’ 23-17 loss to the San Francisco 49ers is extremely relevant. This will be the last time this combination of players are together. The Cowboys will certainly look much different when the 2022 version comes around, with a laundry list of free agents and a seven-round draft approaching. Dallas will bring in new vets, keep some, lose some and add a ton of rookies. Players on the bench will rise up the depth chart and some players could even be traded away.

What it all means in the wake of a disappointing playoff exit? Fans should take one last look at this group of guys. With saddened hearts, here’s a look at the best photo captures from Sunday’s game. The talented photographers of USA Today Images and the Associated Press have done tremendous work capturing the highs and lows of the Cowboys season. Here’s one final look at the action on the field.
