Cowboys claim top spot in NFC East by keeping Eagles offense out of the endzone

The Dallas Cowboys 41-35 win over the Seattle Seahawks last Thursday night was supposed to be just the start of a stretch of tougher games that would determine if this team is truly a Super Bowl contender heading into December. Someone forgot to tell that to Dak Prescott’s record against the NFC East, the team’s five-game win streak at home against the Eagles entering Sunday night, the larger 14-game home win streak dating back to last season, and perhaps most importantly a Dan Quinn defense with revenge against Philadelphia on their minds.

Beating the Eagles for the sixth straight time at AT&T Stadium, the Cowboys were in full control from the start as Prescott found CeeDee Lamb for an opening drive touchdown, followed by the first of three lost fumbles from the Eagles, and a season-long 60-yard field goal from Brandon Aubrey to jump ahead 10-0.
