Imagine this...

Playing on the road in a hostile Philadelphia stadium. Bledsoe getting sacked 7 times, throwing several picks. Basically spotting the Eagles 10 early points off miscues in the punting game and blitz pickup.

Owens, basically taken out of the game by the defensive strategy of the Eagles. And to top it off, the defense gives up like 5 pass plays of over 20 yards, two of which are over 60 yds.

And at the end, the Cowboys are still on the 6 yard line ready to tie it up.

If Bledsoe punches that in and Dallas wins in OT. What would that do to the Eagles psych?

Hey, McNabb played pretty good at home. it's a long season and Dallas will probably win in Dallas in Dec. By then, this game will be just a distant memory. After all, Westbrook will be on IR by then as always.

That's the whole point. Dallas had a chance to kick their *** IN Philadelphia even after spotting them 10 points. The chances were there but Bledsoe kept giving the ball away. Yes, the Cowboys secondary had a bad day BUT as you said, the Cowboys still had a chance to tie at the end.

We had our worst day and they had their best and it came down to the final seconds.

The loss hurts, a lot, never like to lose, but wow. If this team gets it's act together and clicks, they can contend.
