Eagles-Cowboys analysis: Birds rise to 6-0 after getting a jump on rival Dallas

PHILADELPHIA — On a national stage in front of a raucous crowd, the Eagles managed to live up to the gargantuan moment.

A sold out crowd at the Linc, most of them still riding the high of a Phillies playoff run and fueled off the hatred of the Cowboys, brought the energy and the Eagles answered the call with a 26-17 prime-time win. Notable attendees included First Lady Jill Biden, rapper Meek Mill, and Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout.

Dallas came in 4-1, but the Eagles jumped out to an early lead and further proved that they are one of the league’s top teams and remained the NFC East’s leader going into the bye week 6-0.
