Cowboys 30-23 Commanders
After 480 yards of total offence on 87 total plays, the Cowboys held on for a close win over the Commanders as they improved to 7-8-1, snapping a three-game losing streak. The Commanders fell to 4-11.
The first half of the game was all Dallas as they headed into the locker room with a commanding 24-10 lead.
Wide receiver KaVontae Turpin's 86-yard touchdown set a record for the longest touchdown in NFL Christmas Day history.
Running back Javonte Williams, who finished the game with 54 yards on 13 carries, punched one in for Dallas during the first half.
But it was tight end Jake Ferguson's bobble-catch touchdown - his only reception of the game - that put the Cowboys on the board first
But the Commanders wouldn't bend the knee in the second half. Washington rookie running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt went wild with a 72-yard touchdown run that cut the lead to 24-17.
It's now officially the longest run of Croskey-Merritt's career and the longest of his rookie season since Week 1 against the Detroit Lions (42 yards). It would also make it three straight weeks that the rookie had scored at least one touchdown.
He finished the game with 105 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries - leading all running backs. Both teams would hit a couple of field goals each, leaving the Cowboys as victors in the end.
Vikings 23-10 Lions
After committing only eight turnovers all season long - the fewest of any team in the NFL - Detroit gave the ball up six times in a must-win game to keep their playoff hopes alive.
But their 2025 season is now just one more regular season game away from ending as the Vikings officially eliminated them from playoff contention.
Lions QB Jared Goff had five of those six turnovers, with two interceptions and three fumbles - running back Jahmyr Gibbs had the other.
Despite Minnesota only putting up 161 total yards of offence with backup quarterback Max Brosmer under center, the six turnovers and two touchdowns were all that was needed to at least give their fans a nice, final Christmas gift at home.
Running back Jordan Addison had the big highlight of the night when he took one to the house for 65 yards. Starting RB Aaron Jones Sr. had the other touchdown with 53 yards on 18 carries.
