Sturm's Morning After: Cowboys Get Big Win From The Coaching Staff
By Bob Sturm, Special contributor Contact Bob Sturm on Twitter SportsSturm
When you analyze a fascinating game with countless twists and turns, it is easy to get caught up in the final outcome, even if that outcome was only achieved by many variables falling just right. But, it is equally easy to take trips down the many side paths that were narrowly avoided on the path to an ugly victory in Arlington for the Cowboys over their most hated rivals these days, Philadelphia.
The Eagles had no intention of conceding the division last night and in nearly every situation, demonstrated that their defense is up for a 3-hour street fight if that is what it calls for. They seem like a very talented bunch and gave this Cowboys offensive front all they could handle and a message that they will see them again in December in cold Philadelphia.
This one was far from easy. In fact, for most of the night, it was an ugly grind that required a fight against frustration, because for the first time in a long time, it didn't come easy to this young team - and more exactly, this young QB.
Dak Prescott had a really difficult night. For a guy who has made nothing look tough until last night, it was almost important for him to demonstrate at some point that playing QB in the NFL is one of the most difficult things a human being can be asked to do, and he had fooled us into the impression for a few months that it is no big deal. Last night, however, he struggled to find answers to all of the questions the Eagles were asking and for much of the night looked like a defeat was in order. Even his facial expressions showed more of a high stress performance where the opposition was in no mood to get rolled over by this dynamic duo of rookies in Dallas.
