Cowboys ground game rolls in Philadelphia

The Dallas Cowboys went on the road and defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 38-21 on Monday night. Running back Javonte Williams led the offense with a career best 155 yards on the ground. He also scored his eighth rushing touchdown of the season, which ties him for the NFL lead.

Dallas rushed for 204 yards and won at Lincoln Financial Field for the first time since 2021. Quarterback Dak Prescott avoided turnovers completely, hitting 15 of 27 passes for 212 yards and three scores. He found CeeDee Lamb for two touchdowns and connected with George Pickens on a 21 yard score. Pickens lined up in the slot nine times during the game to create mismatches.

Eagles stumble to fifth straight loss

Philadelphia fell to two wins and five losses on the season as its losing streak reached five games. Tanner McKee made his second start in place of injured quarterback Jalen Hurts. McKee finished 23 of 35 for 211 yards, with one touchdown and one interception.

Saquon Barkley played through a hamstring problem and scored on an eight yard run during the opening drive. Barkley had touches on all nine offensive snaps he played, producing 62 rushing yards and nine receiving yards. He left the game in the fourth quarter with a back injury and did not return. Philadelphia surrendered 416 total yards, leading to a frustrating night for defensive coordinator Vic Fangio.
