Dallas closed out NFL Week 7 with a 38-21 win over rival Philadelphia, sending the Eagles to a fifth consecutive defeat.
The Dallas Cowboys finished off NFL Week 7 in style, beating their NFC East rivals the Philadelphia Eagles 38-21 and pushing Philadelphia deeper into a rough patch.
For the Eagles, this was a fifth straight defeat, a run that turns a rivalry game into a real crisis. Losing to Dallas always stings. Losing to them in the middle of a skid makes it worse.
The Cowboys, meanwhile, got exactly what they wanted from a divisional showdown. A 17-point margin says Dallas controlled the contest, and a win over a hated rival gives the team a boost heading into the next stretch of the season.
Philadelphia now has to find answers fast. Five losses in a row is the kind of slide that raises tough questions inside the building and out, and the Eagles will want to stop it before the season gets away from them.
Dallas will take the momentum and move on to Week 8. The Eagles will go back to the drawing board, knowing the next game is a chance to stop the bleeding.
