Summary

  • Dallas snapped a two-game skid and moved to 3-4 with a 38-21 road win over Philadelphia, dealing a major blow to the Eagles' playoff hopes as they fell to 2-5.
  • Javonte Williams powered the turnaround with a career-high 155 rushing yards and a touchdown as Dallas ran 38 times for 204 yards after criticism of Brian Schottenheimer's play calling last week.
  • CeeDee Lamb's 16-yard touchdown and Dak Prescott's 2-point conversion produced the final lead at 28-21 with 1:30 left in the third quarter after six lead changes; Prescott finished with three touchdown passes.
  • Philadelphia, already without Jalen Hurts and DeVonta Smith, lost Saquon Barkley to a back injury and Dameon Pierce in the fourth quarter, leaving Tanner McKee to carry an offense missing key starters.
