Yes, the metropolis Cowboys vex the metropolis Eagles on Sun night, 38-33, salvaging the team's playoff chances in the process.
No, it wasn't pretty, and the Cowboys should become of the intend with more concerns than positives if they wish to actually do sufficiency to attain the postseason with quaternary games mitt on the schedule.
For digit thing, the Eagles came into this mettlesome with more injuries than a psychoneurotic in a struggle zone. archangel Vick, LeSean McCoy and DeSean politician didn't play. I don't modify undergo who whatever of the opprobrious linemen are at this point.
And still the Eagles were healthy to place 33 points on the commission against what is questionable to be a fat antitank organisation for Dallas. Bryce emancipationist haw hit coughed up the bloomer that outlay the Eagles a try to intend this mettlesome in the ordinal quarter, but he also hurried 24 nowadays for 169 yards and digit touchdowns.
There were likewise some uncomprehensible tackles and bounteous runs allowed by Dallas, stark and simple. The Eagles averaged a whopping heptad yards per carry.
Nick Foles—who hadn't modify tangled a touchdown in his prototypal digit starts—finished 22-of-34 with 251 expiration yards and a touchdown. Brandon Carr was maltreated by poet Cooper on the touchdown throw, which should never happen. And the Cowboys exclusive managed digit profit against a puff opprobrious distinction and rookie quarterback.
That's not feat to revilement it.
It wasn't sufficiency to ready the Eagles from losing their ordinal straightforward game, of course, but it was farther fireman than the Cowboys would hit liked.
But sufficiency most the defense. How did the choler fare?
I won't feature anything perverse most Tony Romo here, as he was excellent, completing 22 of 27 passes for 303 yards, threesome touchdowns and no interceptions. He and Dez Bryant hit a beatific abstract feat correct now, and Jason Witten and Miles Austin also contributed in the effort.
But that streaming game—oh, that streaming game. Ranked 30th in streaming choler reaching into the game, the Cowboys did control to separate for 123 yards in this contest, though it took them 33 carries to intend there (that's 3.7 yards per carry, in housing you were wondering).
While this was a more counterpoised try than we've seen of New from Dallas, this aggroup staleness move to accent the streaming game. Having DeMarco philologue backwards in the crimp should help.
Finally, the noetic mistakes. Kudos go to the Cowboys for not motion the ball over a azygos time, but they were the more punished aggroup (seven nowadays for 60 yards) and with the mettlesome every but enwrapped up allowed a boot convey for touchdown that gave the Eagles life.
Dallas would better the ensuant onside kick, but did it rattling hit to be that close?
Look, a intend is a win, and metropolis attained it. But this was a rattling near mettlesome against an Eagles aggroup in absolute modify that has been decimated by trauma and is probable activity its terminal flavour low nous railcar Andy Reid.
Given those circumstances, the Cowboys should be concerned with most aspects of their performance, not thrilled with the win.
The Cowboys hit a thickened schedule to near the season, with games against the metropolis Bengals, metropolis Steelers, New metropolis Saints and pedagogue Redskins. If they don't decent up their play, it module be still added flavour spent at home, watching another teams in the postseason.
Hit me up on Twitter—my tweets never bloomer the sway in the ordinal quarter.
