Dallas relied on their star running back Ezekiel Elliott to control the time of possession and ultimately spell an end to the Seahawks impressive season.

Shortly following the Dallas Cowboys big victory, UFC star Conor McGregor took to Twitter where he shared the following messages for the squad.

“We fought alongside William, yes. But I am not a Wallace. I am a McGregor.” – Conor McGregor

The Irish superstar has a lot to celebrate in the early moments of 2019. McGregor and his longtime girlfriend Dee Devlin just welcomed their second child, a daughter, into the world.

Conor McGregor is expected to return to the octagon at some point this year.
