maybe, they seem about equal. i'm as down on the cowboys as any one, but i won't put the eagles on a pedestal because they are pretty lousy too.

The entire NFC East is hot garbage. That being said, Cowboys are definitely the elite of said garbage. 1st place garbage, if you will. I think the Cowboys are actually a good team and yes, better than Philthy.

Well after last nights game coming back to beat the Giants, I would say the Eagles are the better team.
The cowboys in the same situation would have screwed up any type of comeback, wether due to Prescott or the clappers decisions.

The Division win is all but history now as the boys will get their collective ##### whipped by the Rams and then by the Eagles in succession.

Myself personally I can’t wait to see Jerrahs expressions after he realizes his players let him down and he will not be realizing his dreams yet again.

..right now, in this state? I would say a definite yes. They have Pederson and personal to turn things around. Do they have better players? I would say no. But they have better coaches,which makes better players.

...yer thoughts. Keep it civil guys.. ;)...

The eagles are terrible, Wentz is not good. I’d say we have more talent but as a team we are terrible too. It’s a contest to see who’s the best of the worst

who was wentz throwing to tonight? Number 1 receiver tonight was whiteside, who was 5th on depth chart start of season, and a tight end who hasn’t played all year. Oh and a guy who was on the practice squad all season until 4 weeks ago.

no Jeffrey, no jackson, no howard, no algoholr , so basically receivers 1-3 all out, the 4th traded away last week. All guys who played are the guys who should get extended preseason time.

if you took away cooper, Gallup, however the third is, and a tackle in lane Johnson, how would have dak faired?

the offensive line is hurt plus their wr, if that was us the season would have been over since we need talent in every position.

Honestly, both teams are horrible. One and done for whoever lucks out.

Eagles have better coaching and that’s all.

What the Cowboys record against the eagles since Wentz was drafted? They’ve owned the eagles and probably will continue to own them.

The Dallas Cowboys will never go as far as the current owner will allow. He is the constant that impedes progress in the team. The irony is that he has done well in building the team as of late but ultimately becomes the reason the team can't succeed. I guess the proof will be in the pudding when Garrett goes to the Giants (or wherever) and is a success. Just who, in their right mind, is going to come in and try to run a professional football team with the owner nipping at every decision, thought or team policy in the organization? How do you overcome the contradictions and media chaff that he spews on a regular basis? Garrett isn't the best game managing coach, but he sure isn't the biggest problem the franchise has from a winning standpoint. One conversation with Jimmy Johnson will tell you that.

Is he embarrassed? Hell no. You need to get your act together if you think he wants anyone to believe that. Thus, the fact he isn't should tell you all you need to know. He just wants to prop up the perception that the team CAN win football games. That supports merchandise sales. As long as there is hope, there is commerce. THAT is his bottom line. So many football players wasted. So many opportunities lost. I guess the real test of the fanbase is how much misery you can withstand and still call yourself a fan. I'll keep on supporting the team, but only in the hopes that the current owner either gives up the GM job or just goes away. Then again, who knows what we have in Stephen Jones. Time will tell. GO COWBOYS!

If anything they suck in opposite ways

Eagles can run and stop the run
Eagles can’t throw and get torched deep

They couldn’t throw the ball due to injured WR’s but they’re coming back healthy

Zero worthwhile investment in dbs besides an aging Malcolm Jenkins

So they better figure out he to get the running game going

We have the better players. They have the better coaching staff and front office. Just sayin'
Our front office got the players we have that are better. Their front office got a bunch of crappy players. Yet their FO is better??

Considering they have played a good portion of the season without their top 3 WR along with numourous other top starters (Malik Jackson, Sproles etc) all lost for the season i would say yes. Injuries are part of the game but man they have been hit hard this season and yet they are still tied with us at 6-7

Eagles coaching is far superior to the Cowboys. That’s no surprise.

The eagles roster is old and injury plagued and they are stuck with a bunch of their old and injury plagued players due to their contracts.

It will be a challenge for the eagles to maintain a competitive roster over the next season or two. Of course it can happen. But it will require some really good drafting on their part.

I really don’t see based on what we’ve seen recently how we can pick the Cowboys to win.

After watching them monday night against the Giants, no. They had 1 yard passing to receivers in the third quarter against the 2-10 Giants. Then the Giants decide not to cover Ertz in the end zone. Amazing.

Both teams are hot garbage but I gotta give the edge to the Eagles. Even though they sucked for most of the game last night, they came back and won the game. They knew the stakes and lead a comeback. Dallas has yet to do that this season. Philly knows when to play with urgency. Dallas doesn't. Philly has a superior coaching staff. Dallas doesn't. Week 16 will be a wildcard. Either team can win it. Eagles look like they want to win more though.

Yes they have a superior defense
we dropped 37 on them.. they have lost like 4 in row to us and I believe we are 5-1 in the last 6.. to be better then someone you have to beat them...I saw defense that allowed a Cold Eli torch them in the first half and took OT to win against a 2-10 team..

they have the softest schedule moving forward so I dont like our odds but weve owned the eagles and that defense and the allegedly beter coaching staff..if they cant beat garett head to head m how are they better?

With all their injuries, we are the more talented team. But they are at home and have the better coach.

So the edge goes to them. This team couldn't beat the Bears on the road and the Bears aren't that good, so I am not sure why people expect this team to go into Philly in a do or die game and win in two weeks, especially if we lose to the Rams and are riding a huge losing streak.
