“We took some shots from them,” Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said. Elliott’s second field goal came after Slay intercepted Rush. Jake Elliott, who missed last week’s game with a bad ankle, added field goals of 51 and 34 yards to make it 20-0. Hurts capitalized off the pick and hit Brown for a 15-yard TD and a 14-0 lead. The Eagles are perfect, the Phillies are in the NL Championship Series, the Union host a playoff game this week, and the 76ers open the season this week and play the home opener Thursday. Philly sports fans haven’t had much chance to settle down this fall. Rush, solid but hardly lighting up the scoreboard as a starter, had a pass deflected and intercepted by Gardner-Johnson, who flapped his arms after the pick and had Eagles fans going wild. Miles Sanders scored on a 5-yard TD run and a 7-0 lead. Then on fourth-and-4 from the 10, the Eagles snared Dallas in a neutral zone infraction for an automatic first down. The Eagles had converted 8 of 12 fourth-down attempts coming into the game and kept the gambles rolling on their first scoring drive. The Eagles scored 20 points in the second quarter and have now outscored opponents 112-27 in that quarter this season. Prescott, out since he suffered a broken right thumb in the season-opening loss to Tampa Bay, said his was plan was to play next week. No wonder the Eagles stand as the NFL’s lone unbeaten team. Rush threw two interceptions in the first half that led to 10 points for the Eagles and the ineffective QB finished the half with a 1.0 rating. Rush had led Dallas to four straight victories in place of the injured Dak Prescott but was overmatched under the lights in front of a rowdy crowd - and an Eagles defense that ranks second in the NFL in points off turnovers. “It feels good to come out in into the field like a hawk and go get the ball.” “Read your keys and go get the ball,” Gardner-Johnson said. Gardner-Johnson made a diving catch for his second interception to cut off one late drive, and Brett Maher missed a 59-yard field-goal attempt in a last-gasp effort to stay within striking distance. Ezekiel Elliott scored on a 14-yard run in the third that made it 20-10 and Rush, who mostly struggled, threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Jake Ferguson in the fourth for a 20-17 game. Hurts converted two of the third downs on rushing attempts and Philly needed the clutch runs after the Cowboys (4-2) powered their way back into the game. The Eagles failed on the 2-point conversion and led 26-17. Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs ripped off his helmet and slammed it in anger after the score, one final blown opportunity to make a stop and wrest the NFC East lead away from the Eagles.

The Eagles converted three third downs and Hurts hit DeVonta Smith for a 7-yard touchdown. Philly put the game away with an efficient drive that took up more than half the fourth quarter. “What’s exciting about being 6-0 and not having played a complete game is we know it’s coming.” “We know we’ve got to play a complete game,” Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said. The Eagles held on after their 20-0 lead shrank to 20-17 early in the fourth quarter, improving to 6-0 for the first time since 2004 - when they won their first seven games and went to the Super Bowl. Gardner-Johnson had two of Philadelphia's three interceptions of Cooper Rush, and the Eagles stayed undefeated with a 26-17 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. Jalen Hurts threw for 155 yards and two touchdowns, C.J.

Maybe the Eagles will find a Lombardi Trophy once they get to Slay's room. “We up! Philly's up right now,” cornerback Darius Slay said. It's a great time for Philly sports fans.Įven better for the athletes who only know how to win around here of late. PHILADELPHIA - The Eagles closed out another familiar outcome - their latest victory as they roll unbeaten into an off week - with a recognizable tune: “Dancing On My Own.” Yes, the Eagles borrowed the signature anthem for the Philadelphia Phillies that they've blasted in the clubhouse on their way toward a spot in the National League Championship Series. Eagles improve to 6-0, Hurts key in 26-17 win over Cowboys
