Eagles Suffer Defeat at AT&T Stadium Against Cowboys in Week 14 Showdown

In an intense battle on the field, the Philadelphia Eagles were unable to secure victory against their rivals. Despite a strong defensive effort that included three sacks and nine passes defended, they struggled to convert opportunities into points. The Eagles' defense managed to force one fumble and recover it while also hurrying the quarterback three times. However, they could not prevent their opponents from scoring multiple times.


On offense, the Eagles achieved a total of 324 yards with an average gain of 6.2 yards per play over a total play count of 52. Their passing game saw them complete 19 out of 28 attempts for an impressive completion percentage of approximately 68 percent and netting them ten first downs through air travel alone. However, dropped passes proved costly as four potential receptions slipped through their fingers.


The rushing attack added another dimension to their game plan as they accumulated over a hundred yards on ground with six first downs but failed to find the end zone despite these efforts.


Special teams played its part too; field goal kicking was perfect on both attempts made from beyond forty-nine yards including one from fifty-two yards out which contributed six points for the team's tally.


Penalties were another area where discipline cost them dearly; ten penalties resulted in ninety-five negative yards and provided four first downs for Dallas Cowboys due to infractions by Philadelphia players.


Looking ahead after this tough loss on road soil against formidable opponents like Dallas Cowboys who share same record now as themselves - fans can look forward next week when Philadelphia Eagles will take flight towards Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field scheduled for December 18th at eight fifteen PM Eastern Time broadcasted live across ABC/ESPN networks ensuring supporters won't miss any action from upcoming contest away from home turf.
