The Cowboys and Eagles went down to the wire during Week 9’s clash, but Dallas came up short in its last-drive effort, losing out 28–23.
The Cowboys found themselves with a great chance to score during the final drive of the game, bolstered by some costly mistakes by Philadelphia’s defense but ultimately, Mike McCarthy’s decision-making ended up costing the team.
Dallas had the ball at the six-yard line with 27 seconds left on the clock before the offense imploded. From there, the Cowboys proceeded to get flagged for a false start, followed by an 11-yard loss on a sack of Dak Prescott. Prescott then threw an incomplete pass to Jalen Tolbert and was whistled for a delay of game on the following play.
