Wow!! I wouldn't have guessed that we'd be rated that high.

That's great to know. It means our Cowboys success rate at converting 3rd downs into 1st downs is very high.
The Eagles offensive success 3rd down conversion rate is also high. What makes them harder to shut down is how often they go for it (and succeed) on 4th down. That's how they win. They refuse to be like most teams and simply punt it on 4th down.

I was pretty surprised as well, especially considering how many penalties we've had this season (much better yesterday) that killed our drives/extended opponents drives. Nice trend and still room to get better.
