Eagles-Cowboys Week 7 odds preview: Birds will be underdogs in miserable MNF matchup

The Philadelphia Eagles enter their Week 7 Monday Night Football matchup against the Dallas Cowboys as 4.5-point home underdogs at Lincoln Financial Field. Both NFC East teams hold 2-4 records, but Philadelphia enters on a four-game losing streak and is without starting quarterback Jalen Hurts, who was ruled out for the season due to blood clots in his lungs.

Nick Tricome writes that Dallas presents a more favorable matchup despite its own defensive struggles, where the Cowboys have allowed an average of 26.5 points per game. With Tanner McKee taking over at quarterback behind a makeshift offensive line, Tricome argues that Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott holds the upper hand against a worn-down Philadelphia secondary.
