Dallas didn’t get a first down, but Mike Nugent was there to hit 48-yard field goal. The Eagles used an egalitarian system to march down the field: Two touches for Torrey Smith, two for Jay Ajayi, two for LeGarrette Blount, and two for Kenjon Barner, and just like that, the Eagles have the lead.īarner’s nifty footwork on this catch got them into the end zone, and he punched it in a play later for the touchdown:Ĭowboys 3, Eagles 0: Ryan Switzer got the Cowboys into scoring position on the first play of the game with a 61-yard kick return. Mike Nugent had no problem hitting his second field goal of the game, but that’s not a recipe to beat the Eagles’ high-flying offense.Įagles 7, Cowboys 3: Well, that was easy. The Cowboys held again and Jake Elliott’s 34-yard field goal was no good.Įagles 7, Cowboys 6: The Cowboys started off their second drive hot, but they stalled in the red zone, thanks in part to two heads-up plays (and maybe one uncalled PI) by Eagles cornerback Ronald Darby.

He’s also SUPER lucky Anthony Brown has feet for hands:Įagles 7, Cowboys 6: Eagles kicker Jake Elliott left the game to be evaluated for a concussion. Earlier in the game, we thought settling for field goals wouldn’t be enough to beat the Eagles.īuuuuuut for right now, it’s good enough, especially when Carson Wentz has completed only two of his last 12 passes, for 9 total yards.
