A bad hand: 6 takeaways from Cowboys-Eagles a day later

The Philadelphia Eagles dropped to a 2-5 record after a 38-21 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night, marking their fifth consecutive defeat. Dallas dominated on the ground, accumulating 204 rushing yards, with Javonte Williams contributing 155 yards and a touchdown. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott threw three touchdown passes against an Eagles defense that failed to record a single sack or quarterback hit.

Running back Saquon Barkley exited early due to a back issue after missing the previous two games with a hamstring injury. Quarterback Tanner McKee completed 23 of 35 passes for 211 yards, a touchdown, and an interception, connecting with rookie Makai Lemon for his first career score. Writer Benjamin Goldstein argues that the Eagles are poorly coached and face major organizational decisions following the collapse.
