The Eagles (9-3) jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead over the Cowboys (8-4) in Dallas on a Mark Sanchez run and Sanchez pass to Jordan Matthews and the Cowboys were playing catch up all day, but could never match the offensive output of the Eagles in Philadelphia's 33-10 win in Dallas.
Turning Point:
Mark Sanchez hit Jordan Matthews for a 27 yard TD pass with 4 minutes left in the 1st quarter to give the Eagles a 14-0 lead that would prove to be enough to beat the Cowboys.
Key Stat:
LeSean McCoy carried the ball 25 times for 159 yards and 1 TD to pace the Eagles offense down the stretch.
Cowboys MVP:
LB Anthony Hitchens paced the Cowboys defense with 12 tackles o the day. The offense was too inconsistent and error-prone to produce a team MVP on this day.
Eagles MVP:
McCoy. The star RB showed a glimpse of his 2013 form and churned out 159 important yards to keep the Cowboys offense off the field and lead Philadelphia to a victory.
What’s Next?
The Cowboys will play again on Thursday next week with a match up with the Bears in Chicago. The Eagles will host the Seahawks next Sunday.
