Sunday Night we witness the debuted of the possibly the next great dual between young quarterbacks in the division. Just so happens the one of those quarterbacks plays to the Philadelphia Eagles. Prescott won the first of the many anticipated matchups that will happen for the years to come. In a game where had a lot of chances to put away the game while winning 20-10 and then 23-13 for most of the second half.<\/p>\n
The Eagles just could not put away the game and it did not help that on Wendell Smallwood’s first and only carry of the night he fumble and the Cowboys recovered inside of the Eagles 40 yard line. Smallwood’s fumble lead to the Cowboys scoring on a Dan Bailey field after the defense force a three and out.<\/p>\n
The following drive for the Cowboys Dak found Dez Bryant for a 22 yard score that ultimately tied up the affair. With just over 2 minutes remaining\u00a0and all three of their timeouts the Eagles where forced to punt. The Eagles defense held the Cowboys and forced overtime. The Eagles lost the coin toss and the Cowboys, of course, elected to receive.\u00a0On a drive the Cowboys went for it on fourth and inches in field goal range and got it on a quarterback sneak by Prescott. Then, Prescott and Elliott lead\u00a0the team down to the five yard line where Dak found Jason\u00a0Witten for a\u00a0wideopen touchdown after safety, Malcom Jenkins was knocked to the ground. The Eagles lost with the final of, 29-23.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This ended the Eagles three game winning streak in Dallas\u00a0dating back to 2013 while the team was under Chip Kelly. Over the last four years while\u00a0playing in Dallas the Eagles have started the game with four different quarterback (2013-Foles,\u00a02014-Sanchez,\u00a02015-Bradford,\u00a02016-Wentz). On the bright side it looks as if the Eagles won’t have to worry about this for at least the\u00a0next decade plus with Wentz.<\/p>\n
