Cowboys vs. Eagles Preview: How to Watch, Betting Odds, Injury Report, & More!

 

The Philadelphia Eagles (7-1) will look to head into the bye week with an 8-1 record and a firm grasp on the No.1 seed in the NFC and first place in the NFC East. To do that they will have to defeat their NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys (5-3). Much has been made about the Birds’ tough schedule for the upcoming six-weeks, but the Cowboys enter this game playing one of the weakest schedules in the NFL.

Cowboys vs. Eagles: Five Things to Watch

  1. Sunday’s game will be the first game since 2021 that both teams have their respective starting quarterback playing.
  2. The Dallas Cowboys five wins have come against teams with a combined 14-24 record. The only team with a winning record the Cowboys have defeated was (shockingly) the New York Jets.
  3. How will the Eagles slow down the Dallas wide receiver combination of Brandon Cooks, Michael Gallup, and Ceedee Lamb?
  4. How will Jalen Hurts knee alter the Eagles play calling? Micah Parson is subject to being caught up in read-option plays and they may or may not be available on Sunday for the Birds.
  5. Keep an eye on Tyler Steen who is likely to start at right guard in place of Sua Opeta.

Dallas Cowboys Win If…

The Dallas Cowboys win if they turn this game into a shootout and expose the Philadelphia secondary. However, in order to do that, the Cowboys will also have to slow down the Eagles pass rush and protect Dak Prescott. In order to protect Prescott, sense a trend here …, the Cowboys are going to have to have a somewhat balanced attack and use their running game. The running game, or lack of a running game, has been an issue this season against subpar defenses. The Eagles defensive line and run game is not subpar.


Philadelphia Eagles Win If…

The Philadelphia Eagles win if they follow the same defensive scheme they used against the high-powered Miami Dolphins a few weeks ago. In that game, the Birds were agressive and forced Miami’s Tua Tagovailoa to make mistakes. They will need to do the same against Dallas’ Dak Prescott, who is prone to turnover the football. Offensively, the Eagles win this game if they POUND the football. Dallas is not very good against the run, especially in the early downs, and the Birds can use that to their advantage to open up the passing game.


Cowboys vs. Eagles Prediction

NFC East games, unless they’re against the hapless New York Giants, are predictably unpredictable. This game should be no different. The Eagles have already passed an early season challenge when they dominated the Miami Dolphins, the NFL’s most prolific offense, a few weeks ago on Sunday Night Football. And this game will be a lot like that one, the Cowboys have a very prolific group of wide receivers that can give the Eagles’ secondary fits. However, much like that game, the Eagles will make the quarterback’s life a living hell, forcing Dak Prescott into some poor situations. Offensively, the Eagles will be able to keep the Cowboys defense off-balance with a mixture of the run and pass. In the end, the score will look a lot closer than the game that was actually played on the field.
