PHILADELPHIA -- The final outcome was a 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, but the Dallas Cowboys left Lincoln Financial Field believing it was much closer than five points.
It was a matter of inches. An overturned touchdown pass (via replay) to tight end Luke Schoonmaker, whose knee was down before the ball crossed the goal line. Quarterback Dak Prescott's foot landing out of bounds on a 2-point play. A fumble that pass-rusher Micah Parsons nearly recovered inside Philadelphia territory.
In the end, each of those plays went Philadelphia's way, but the result did not discourage the Cowboys.
