I was looking forward to seeing what the sports analyist were going to say this morning or even the power rankings (which I get has no baring, that's the College football fan in me) So before the game, it was going to be this powerhouse offence vs an agile QB. It was going to be close. Even some (myself I admit included) almost had them losing. With all the trash talk that the Beagles started early on, Dallas beat them and beat them convincingly. SO NOW! "It's just the Eagles" COME ON MAN! Give them some credit. Let's be honest, 7 points was in trash time (really 14) and another 7 was a gimme from Dakota. This game SHOULD have been 50+ to 7.. ok.. keep us under the radar.. That's where we like it.

Lol a lot on this forum were terrified of the Eagles after the beat up the terrible Falcons defense.

Also, NFC East games just aren’t that tough anymore. These teams are bad and have been bad.

It was "Just the Eagles" Bruh. They suck. Hurts is horribad. Their O-Line is pretty crappy if the Cowboys can apply that kind of pressure. I'm just sayin'

anytime Dallas does something positive the goal post get moved

thats just how it is

we could win the superbowl and they'll say "but theyve never won the world series or the NBA finals so are they really who we think they are"
fans here are doing it so whats the difference, media etc

most pre game predictions 70% were Cowboys picked to win..lets enjoy the season who cares what others say

way early in the season , long long way to go..

I kinda get that, but it wasn't a close game period. If it was 21-17 against "Just the Eagles" then yeah you're right. It was a complete blowout. The analyst were talking about how close this game was going to be. It wasn't even close!

First off, the Eagles are a better team than what we saw last night. The Cowboys showed tremendous heart in beating the crap out of them last night. I have no doubt the Eagles will win some games this year. They are too good of a team not to. The injuries to their offensive line are going to hurt. They are missing 3 starters now, like Dallas last year. You can yell, "next man up" all you want, but the next man is never as good as the guy he replaces.

The Cowboys won last night because Dak is becoming a great QB. They won because they got faster on defense and that was enough to neutralize Hurts's running.

We almost beat them last year with DeNucci as QB, running behind Zach Martin, while spotting them a lead because Moore was calling HS plays for the whole first half.

They suck… The East is horrible and our talent is far superior to any in the division. The only guy that is probably worthy to be mentioned in the same breath as our skilled positions is McLaurin and yes, I haven’t forgotten overrated Barkley.

I don't even watch those fools anymore. Got rid of DirectTV, ESPN and all that. Have trouble finding the games on Thursdays and Mondays now because of it, but I don't deal with the b/s anymore.

Still, somehow three years have passed since we hoisted the flag.

I agree, I was hearing how dominant their defense is, not they are just patsies.

I was very happy that the Cowboys went out and took care of business. We were expected to win and they did and did so in convincing fashion. After listening to sports talk yesterday before the game I knew this was a no win game for the Cowboys. You win no big deal, you lose and the sky is falling. So Cowboys did what they were supposed to do and I enjoyed very second of it. Been a while since I could sit back and relax heading into a 4th qrt knowing this game was over.
