That's lowering the bar on being surgical. For much of the game a backup was looking better than Dak.
At no point did Minshew look better than Dak.

Look at the crazy catches that Philly receivers were making. Y'all talk about accuracy but say that looked better than Dak...... Not even the drop picks by Dallas defense is being mentioned, by the way

What a terrible post. Philly was playing to keep the number 1 seed and a 1st round playoff bye. Now they are tied for 1st with the Vikings and have to take the last 2 regular season games serious To keep 1st.

No they're not.. They are 13-2 and the Vikings are 12-3. And even if they WERE tied they beat the Vikings head to head so in essence they are up two games on them anyway. Still this dude is clearly miserable that the Cowboys won this game and trying like hell to throw cold water over it by declaring that "Philly wasn't really trying.." That refrain was about as predictable as the sun coming up as soon as the Cowboys won.

Nope near interceptions only matter if it's Dak throwing the ball. Other QBs CAUSE the balls to be dropped by putting special spin on the ball that Dak is incapable of doing. Yeah.. that's the ticket...

That is the biggest takeaway for me...we can beat them in a shootout.

Philly offense actually scored more with Minchew than they did with Hurts vs us.

Minshew is a far better passer than Hurts.

By the same token then at no point did Dak look like he was performing "surgery" today. He was hot and cold and it was lucky that we won.

I think the Eagles would be better with Hurts. We can disagree with that. I like to think the whole NFC East is a bit overrated this year, but a lot of people around the country see the Eagles as the Team to beat and don't see the cowboys in the same light. I'm sure a lot of Eagles fans were saying after our first meeting something similar to you like "You think Dak can do better?" when referring to Rush. Great win today, but the kind of win that doesn't yet give me confidence going into the playoffs.

I don't know what to tell you. We played a horrific defensive football game. Made multiple strategic errors, had a ton more penalties. Spotted them a 10 point lead regardless of who was QBing for Philly.

And yet hung 40 on them fairly effortlessly.

You are so full of it.

You can only point to two plays that were negative with Dak when passing the ball today. He destroyed Philly defense and yes, was surgical.

I'm enjoying this win and happy all you Dak haters got exposed..... Again

They didn't have to punt. Not once. For an entire game. So we couldn't really stop them either.

Loved the win though.
We can't stop anybody these days. Philly's D is all that...against everybody else. With Dak's record against them and our ability to score on them like nobody else, we might be in their heads a little bit. We need all the psychological ammo we can get with a bunch of road games ahead including the next two and playoffs.

At no point could you say he was surgical? He went 9 for 9 after the pick, 14 out of 15 going into half after the pick. That’s surgical man c’mon. Seriously if you don’t think he was surgical at that point it’s pure agenda.

Yea that was my bad. Read it wrong. Thought the 3 was a 2 in Vikings loss column. You’re right tho.

The Eagles are a grass pedigree team coming into the 3rd straight game on the road

They had their b/u QB and didn't run the ball as well as they're used to w Lil Jalen plus they turned the ball over 4 times.

I predicted the Cowboys would win and cover the spread 2 weeks ago before Jalen got Hurts lol

It's next week game against Tennessee on Grass is where I think we'll have a hiccup.

We'll see if our defense can stop King Henry on grass.

I have serious doubts we can win on grass. Were 0-3 on grass this year and it's gonna be a tough game

If you watched the game, you would know that if not for the Christmas Present the Eagles gave us at the end, they've would've beat us with their Backup Quarterback. It's a great win but be realistic.
lol... but that doesnt apply when our back up qb gave them 3 picks, right? Backup BS excuse only is used for them, right?

Forget the narrative of moral victory for them etc w/ how well Minshew played.

They can't stop us. We could score 50 next game.
Lol. Right. They are more likely to blow us out. We got very lucky today… in January it might get ugly assuming Hurts is back.

I think you’re a bit high off of victory right now… let’s not go too far. Eagles played with nothing on the line. We played with everything on the line and at our highest effort. If Philly truly gave their all, we would have lost.

Now the narrative excuses. The Eagles played with urgency. They lost because Dallas was better. Philly, has everything to play for.

What gift? Dak gave a gift at the start of the game, but the team overcame and won. Downplay if you must, but the standings will still show 11-4.

I thought Minshew was very mediocre. Botched handoff. Two ints. Made some good throws but some bad ones as well.
