Eagles Defeat Cowboys




It wasn't pretty, but it was a win. The Eagles went into Dallas for the second year in a row and defeated the Cowboys 10-6.

Although the Offense couldn't move the ball, the Defense kept the high powered Cowboy offense in check all game. They sacked Tony Romo 4 times and forced two fumbles. They also intercepted him 3 times. It was an all around great effort on the defensive front.

On offense though, nothing has changed. We still couldn't score. The play calling was questionable once again. We attempted 41 passes when the run game was working. Brian Westbrook was the workhorse once again rushing for 81 yards and adding 63 yards in receptions. Donovan McNabb passed for 208 yards and a Touchdown to Reggie Brown. He also had 56 yards on six carries. But he was sacked 4 tines and was pressured many other times. The OL didn't look too good in this game.

Overall it was a good win, no matter how close it might have been. The win may have put us back on track to make the playoffs.
