Philadelphia Eagles Preview
Philadelphia moved to 10-2 after losing to San Francisco at home, 42-19. The Eagles are visibly outmatched for the first time this season, and they’ll look to avoid slipping up in Dallas here. The Philly offense is scoring 27.3 ppg, while passing for 249.7 ypg, rushing for 128.1 ypg, and converting 48.2 % of their third downs.
Eagles Player Props
• Jalen Hurts finished well statistically against San Fran, passing for 298 yards, with a touchdown toss and rush. The MVP candidate didn’t help his case in the uncomfortable loss to the Niners, but he’ll have an opportunity to bounce back in his home state Sunday night. Hurts has passed for 2,995 yards, with 19 touchdowns to ten interceptions, and he’s rushed for 430 yards and 12 more scores on the ground.
• D’Andre Swift picked up an injury in the loss to San Francisco, but he’s good to go this weekend, and he leads the Eagles in rushing yards (783).
• A.J. Brown surpassed the 100-yard mark for the first time in three weeks, and he’s among the NFL’s leaders with 81 receptions for 1,164 receiving yards.
• Devonta Smith scored for the fourth time in five games, and he’s posting solid splits of 64/834/6.
• The Philly defense is allowing 24.0 points per game.

Dallas Cowboys Preview
Dallas improved to 9-3 after defeating Seattle at home, 41-35. The Cowboys edged out the Seahawks in a shootout, and they’ll look to bring that momentum into this division battle with Philly. The Dallas offense is scoring 32.3 ppg, while passing for 279.0 ypg, rushing for 117.0 ypg, and converting 51.6% of their third downs.
Dallas Player Props
• Dak Prescott came through with another strong start against Seattle, finishing with 299 yards and three touchdown tosses. The eighth-year quarterback will now have to prove he can deliver against a fellow heavyweight, and he’s done well against the Eagles historically. Prescott has passed for 3.234 yards with 26 touchdowns to six interceptions for the season.
• Tony Pollard gained 83 yards in the win over Seattle, and he’s first one the team with 737 rushing yards.
• CeeDee Lamb has scored in four straight contests, and he leads Dallas in receptions (90) and receiving yards (1,182).
• The Dallas defense has allowed 18.3 ppg.
Philly vs Dallas Trends
• PHI is 8-3-1 against the spread, with a 7-5 O/U record.
• DAL is 8-4 ATS, with a 8-4 over/under record.
Philadelphia vs Dallas Prediction
The outcome of this contest will be huge in regards to playoff aspirations, and it has game of the week potential. Dallas has caught fire since a five-point loss in Philly last month, but they’ve yet to beat a playoff team, let alone a title contending squad. Philadelphia comes in on heels of a humbling defeat from San Francisco, and you can bet they come out motivated to not only avenge that effort, but to also avoid a second loss atop the standings this late in the season. I want to trust Dallas’ momentum, but history shows that’s an impossible task, and they just haven’t proven themselves against a top team just yet. Sunday night at Jerry World could be special for the Cowboys, but we could also be in for more of the same, so I like the underdog shot with the Eagles here. Spot Philly the points for safety in this NFC East clash.
