The Dallas Cowboys' game against the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday was one they had to win if they had any chance of catching the Philadelphia Eagles in the race for the NFC East.
The stakes were so high that one Dallas fan took it upon themselves to try and "rattle" the Jaguars quarterback by jumping into Lawrence's Instagram DM's and trying to intimidate him. It didn't work.

Once this little exchange became public, NFL fans took to social media to give their thoughts on it, with one fan reacting to the voice message left by the fan by saying that he didn't know Dave Chappelle was a Dallas fan.
"Didn’t know Dave Chappelle was a cowboys fan!"

Other NFL fans gave their two cents on the voice messages left by the fan, with many simply left shaking their heads.
It appears that what the Dallas fan said had no impact on Lawrence and the "Jags" as they came from 17-points down to win a thriller in overtime.
Many NFL fans still can't believe that one fan took it upon themselves to try and intimidate Lawrence via a voice message.
Jaguars loss sets Cowboys back in division race
Dallas needed a win in Duval on Sunday to keep pace with the Eagles in the race for the NFC East. With the loss and the Eagles winning, the buffer between the two sides is now three games with three remaining.
For Dallas to have any shot (albeit a remotely small one), they will have to win out and hope that the Eagles lose all three games as well. Seems like a long shot, doesn't it?
Things may be turning with Jalen Hurts having a sprained shoulder that, from some reports, could have him missing the rest of the regular season. Given that the Eagles have already secured a playoff berth, there isn't much to be gained by "risking" Hurts.
That could work in Dallas' favor for the Christmas Eve clash at AT&T Stadium. Although some of its "spark" has been lost due to the Cowboys losing on Sunday, there is still bragging rights to play for.
With both teams already securing playoff berths, the remaining three weeks could be a little up and down as attention will focus on the postseason.
