Eagles slump to fifth straight defeat against the Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys beat the Philadelphia Eagles 38-21 to hand their rivals a fifth consecutive defeat to round off NFL week seven.
On Monday night, the Dallas Cowboys secured a dominant 38-21 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles at home, bringing their season record to 3-4. As a result, the Cowboys' playoff odds have improved to -105 to make the playoffs, according to BetOnline. Despite their losing record, this improved likelihood can be largely credited to the Cowboys' NFC East division, where the Philadelphia Eagles have struggled this season, particularly after quarterback Jalen Hurts will be out for the year.
The New York Giants lead the division with a 4-2-1 record, but many analysts believe they will eventually falter due to increased difficulty with upcoming tough opponents. The Cowboys' win on Monday was a significant improvement for both their defense and offense, showcasing a balanced performance that is rare for the team. With their next game at home against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, the Cowboys will have an opportunity to build on this momentum as they push towards a potential playoff run.
