Cowboys news: Philadelphia loss has Dallas inching closer
"Post-Bye Success The Cowboys' current three-game win streak started after the bye week, and after gaining reinforcements on defense. Dallas used the bye to acquire DT Quinnen Williams and LB Logan Wilson from the Jets and Bengals, respectively. Each of these players, especially Williams, has brought a different dynamic to the defense, and has given DC Matt Eberflus the ammunition to deploy his unit to his liking."
"Dallas started with a convincing win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday Night Football, leading into a tough matchup with the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles. After falling behind 21-0 early in the 2nd quarter, the season seemed lost. However, the defense finally tightened up, shutting out the Eagles for eight consecutive possessions spanning nearly a full three quarters. This allowed Dak Prescott and the offense to rise from the dead and tie the franchise record for the biggest comeback win: 21 points."
"For diehard fans, it's difficult to set aside the anguish of a Cowboys loss, even on a special day like Thanksgiving, where a win just adds to the holiday cheer of spending time with loved ones. Adding a cherry on top of this victory sundae is the fact that the Eagles have now dropped two games in a row after losing to the Bears on Friday afternoon."
The Dallas Cowboys have won three straight games after the bye week, aided by defensive acquisitions DT Quinnen Williams and LB Logan Wilson and the returns of LB DeMarvion Overshown and CB Shavon Revel. The defense transformed from early-season struggles into a much stronger unit under DC Matt Eberflus. Dallas rallied from a 21-0 deficit against the Philadelphia Eagles, tying the franchise record for largest comeback (21 points). The Cowboys also beat the Kansas City Chiefs on Thanksgiving. Philadelphia has lost two straight, dropping to 8-4, while Dallas sits at 6-5-1 and is within striking distance of the NFC East lead.
