The Dallas Cowboys are the hottest team in the NFL right now.
Ever since dropping their season opener and losing Dak Prescott to injury, they have gone unbeaten and racked up a series of divisional wins that will pay dividends down the line.
It’s not just the Cowboys’ players who are thriving, though.
The squad’s cheerleaders are also setting the internet ablaze these days.
On Thursday, the team’s official Instagram account published this post:

Fans loved it.
“Beautiful,” one fan wrote.
“Very nice picture,” a second added.
The success of the post led to fans discovering the cheerleaders’ personal Instagram profile and blowing that up, too.
The young woman in question, Kleine Powell, boasts more than 30,000 followers on the platform and routinely causes a stir with posts like this:

This has been a huge year for cheerleaders in the world of football. Between Alabama’s unit causing a stir at the collegiate level and the Baltimore Ravens’ group doing the same just last week, it feels like fans have developed a newfound appreciation for what they do.
Big picture, as the Cowboys continue to enjoy immense success this season, cheerleaders like Powell will also continue to bask in the squad’s glow.
This week’s looming showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles is huge, though.
Philly enters it undefeated and presently sitting atop the NFC East. A win here for Dallas would change both teams’ trajectories.
Plus, if the Cowboys earn a win here, their next eight games come against the Detroit Lions, Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, New York Giants, Indianapolis Colts, Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars.
There is maybe two losses in that batch.
There is a very feasible scenario where, if Dallas gets past Philadelphia this week, they go into their Dec. 24 rematch against the Eagles at 11-3 on the year.
This would be particularly important as Philly has an arguably easier remaining schedule on the books than Dallas does.

At the moment, the Cowboys are firing on all cylinders. The offense looks great. The defense looks stellar. And the cheerleading squad is absolutely incredible.
Will the good times continue to roll as the season progresses?
Time will tell.
