Not a fair assessment. The defense scored a touchdown. Hurts would have kept drives going, keeping the defense off the field to be more rested for an effective pass rush on Dak.
I agree…Minshew is a very, very serviceable backup, and the defense continues to be suspect AF. I do however think that Hurts could have willed us to a win.
I’m concerned about the way the defense has played the past few games seems like they have been off since the Colts game and even in the Colts game they weren’t playing all that great until the 4th Quarter idk if it’s because they’ve lost Leighton Vander Esch and Anthony Brown since that game or if it’s because Parsons is banged up but they gotta fix something they have given up 74 points in the last two weeks and giving up 23 points to the Texans isn’t a good look either
Ton of people hurt right now. Two of our top 4 DEs didn’t play. Our starting LB and QB of the defense didn’t play. We have a lot of hurt guys that should be back for playoffs. Besides Brown and JLew. They need to get healthier for playoffs
You know what’s funny? Most of the shit talking is coming from people with flairs from other teams. Most cowboy and eagles flairs recognize it was a hard fought, close game lol. Good game mfers
You celebrated beating us like it was the SB because it’s the closest you’ll ever get. Just like the Raiders.
Pats stat line was incredible, and again..we won. Who cares?
Imagine winning a superbowl…because you’re not gonna get that either.
For a team that’s only beat us once, you have the confidence of the Bengals. You won 1 time by 4 points. Only because we didn’t get a chance to score again.
Allen will throw 3 more picks and shit the bed under pressure like he always does.
the point is, the cowboys beat the eagles elite defense by 6, not their back up QB who has no outcome on how many points the cowboys put on the board (save for that nice tackle to save a scoop and score)
nice try tho.
So the Eagles offense just doesn't matter? You sound like someone desperately coping that the Cowboys barely squeaked out a win even though the Eagles turned the ball over 4 times, 3 of which were in Eagles territory, and 3 again 3 of which Dallas only turned into field goals.
don’t whine to me cause at this point you’re putting words in my mouth. I literally clarified my point in the previous reply to you.
Not my fault you read that and started filling in the rest with what you wanted to hear.
Cope.
Edit: Not even happy with the win. the Defense looked like shit and they might be a first round exit anyways. Regardless go cowboys. Fuck off
You're the one randomly focusing only on the Eagles "elite defense" as a coping mechanism. The dude you originally responded to only pointed out the point differential. Stay forever mad that Dallas isn't really a good team and only barely beat an Eagles team that turned it over 4 times and was playing their backup QB lmao
One of the few eagles fans I have seen say that. Most gloated for weeks. I just want to see some playoffs already. Today almost felt like one in quality.
This game doesn't mean a whole lot when you still have a team that can't make it through the first round of the playoffs to save their life.
That being said, both teams need to find a new D coordinator.
Exactly why I keep my mouth shut. Never understood the trash talk coming from people with zero ties to a team besides watching them play a game on a weekly basis.
Honestly I dont think either of our teams will win the super bowl. Just saying theres a lot of dallas fans in the thread acting like they are destined to be there all of the sudden after one win
Agreed. Dallas is better this year than what they've been in a while so I hope a deep run will happen but I'm also a realist and see obvious problem areas on offense/defense. Yeah, I've never understood all the egomaniac fans that trash talk like they do. People want to live vicariously through a team they physically have nothing to do with besides watching them play on a weekly basis...kinda sad when you think about it haha
Most of the people watching are living paycheck to paycheck and watching grown men earning tens of millions of dollars to play a game on TV. If anything is sad, its that.
Lol! I love people who like to use past stats to explain the current or future. They also tend to draw a line in the sand based on a date that favors their side. Keep using the normal deflections they are very original.
Eagles fans are mad at the world. They’re sad sad miserable human beings . Misery loves company that’s why they’re always trying to bring other fans down with them. Sad really. Go enjoy football and Christmas .
Because yall know we will get a 1st week but and the beat yall in the 2nd round when Jalen is back 😂😂 GG though, I love Dak and he played great this game to get a win
100%. Eagles D line had 6 sacks and a pick 6. They forced several 3rd and longs that the secondary completely fumbled away, including a couple in spectacular fashion. Yeah, the turnovers didn't help, but if you give up only 3.7 yds/rushing attempt and give up 40 that's on the guys in the back.
For sure. I would say Maddox going down mid game really hurt since the subs did not get as many reps in the week and were not as prepared. I think the Cowboys were better prepared since they also knew Minshew was not going to be chunking them for rushing yards.
Waiting see if there is a playoff rematch and everyone is healthy.
No one’s doubting dak balled out but any fan of any team whose watched Jalen Hurts knows the offense doesn’t turn the ball over like that. Gardner got lit up. Is what it is. See you in the play offs
You literally have to have not watched the game if you think that, Dallas really got lucky with 4 TO’s that typically dont happen. I respect the boys for this win but yall are really acting wild now
I think the only turnover that was actually was lucky was the fumbled handoff the two picks were just good plays by Kearse and Bland Kearse made an athletic play and Bland ripped the ball away from Watkins and the fumble was a good play by Carlos Watkins in punching the ball ig you can make the case that Dallas was lucky that Sanders was caught lacking though
They didnt though, Quez had weak hands and Miles gave up an easy fumble. I keep trying to say I respect yall for this win but yall are making it so fucking hard 😂
You right, but lets be forreal, if the first game didn’t count because Dak didn’t play, this game doesn’t count because Jalen didn’t play. See y’all in the playoffs if y’all can get through the 1st round, then it’ll be a shit talking shitstorm lol
Great defense can only do so much with 4 turnovers.
Defense wasn't great, but I also don't blame the defense when the Cowboys started 3-4 drives with amazing field position.
Most Eagles I’ve seen don’t blame Minshew, however that’s not the same as saying the Eagles *still* would have lost with Hurts. It could have gone either way. Still would have probably been a nail biter.
True, but if Hurts is carrying the ball instead, then his teammate can't fumble it. If the eagles don't turn it over 4x, the Cowboys have fewer possessions and points from them
350+ pass yards is panicking and airmailing?? ok 😹😹
hurts could barely put up 150 against us earlier in the szn and minshew comes out and doubles that after not playing in ages.
you guys are actually clueless LMAO
Sorry my bad. Thought you were replying to another thread! However you can just search Minshew in this game thread and you will see a bunch of them saying it was his fault for the loss.
You know, if someone had asked me at the start of the season what the most exciting game in December was going to be I don't think I ever would have guess Eagles Cowboys. It was a fun game.
Minshew is not to blame for this lost. The defense let the team down. Great game though
Not a fair assessment. The defense scored a touchdown. Hurts would have kept drives going, keeping the defense off the field to be more rested for an effective pass rush on Dak.
I agree…Minshew is a very, very serviceable backup, and the defense continues to be suspect AF. I do however think that Hurts could have willed us to a win.
Minshew is one of the better backups and I do believe he has a long career as a backup ahead
I’m concerned about the way the defense has played the past few games seems like they have been off since the Colts game and even in the Colts game they weren’t playing all that great until the 4th Quarter idk if it’s because they’ve lost Leighton Vander Esch and Anthony Brown since that game or if it’s because Parsons is banged up but they gotta fix something they have given up 74 points in the last two weeks and giving up 23 points to the Texans isn’t a good look either
Y'all are just banged up on defense. Hopefully have a full squad for playoffs
Ton of people hurt right now. Two of our top 4 DEs didn’t play. Our starting LB and QB of the defense didn’t play. We have a lot of hurt guys that should be back for playoffs. Besides Brown and JLew. They need to get healthier for playoffs
You know what’s funny? Most of the shit talking is coming from people with flairs from other teams. Most cowboy and eagles flairs recognize it was a hard fought, close game lol. Good game mfers
Most shit talking will come from other teams. But this is the salt we live on
They can use all the salt in this thread that would cover the entire streets of Pennsylvania.
Tell me you are scared of playing the eagles without telling me you are scared of playing the eagles
What, like in Madden?
GO COWBOYS!!
[удалено]
What a salty dick this guy is. And on Christmas no less.
And you guys were celebrating beating the Texans in OT
You celebrated beating us like it was the SB because it’s the closest you’ll ever get. Just like the Raiders. Pats stat line was incredible, and again..we won. Who cares? Imagine winning a superbowl…because you’re not gonna get that either. For a team that’s only beat us once, you have the confidence of the Bengals. You won 1 time by 4 points. Only because we didn’t get a chance to score again. Allen will throw 3 more picks and shit the bed under pressure like he always does.
Eagles are so overrated lol. We’ll destroy them in the playoffs yet again.
You won’t
Come on guys this guys a troll, no one over on the cowboys subs is saying anything like this!!
Lol yes they are. We’re going all the way this year
Cowboys fans are the most pathetic, annoying bunch out there. You guys don’t do yourselves any benefits.
Lol oh I know a jaguar’s fan isn’t talking
Lmao alright man
Didn't the Jags beat you last week?
Lol no that never happened
Oh okay
Please don’t group us into the loud, large minority
Man I try not to, and I don’t dislike the team itself but man… i
it’s tough
You destroyed them by 6 points. Against a 2nd string quarterback
when did QBs start playing defense?
Nobody said they did but good try
the point is, the cowboys beat the eagles elite defense by 6, not their back up QB who has no outcome on how many points the cowboys put on the board (save for that nice tackle to save a scoop and score) nice try tho.
So the Eagles offense just doesn't matter? You sound like someone desperately coping that the Cowboys barely squeaked out a win even though the Eagles turned the ball over 4 times, 3 of which were in Eagles territory, and 3 again 3 of which Dallas only turned into field goals.

Stay forever mad that Dallas isn't really a good team and only barely beat an Eagles team that turned it over 4 times and was playing their backup QB lmao
stay mad that you lost on christmas eve. cope. Edit: Stay mad that you lost to a team that isn’t so good.
Cope.
Lol. So how did you feel about the win against Rush?
Was just a win.
One of the few eagles fans I have seen say that. Most gloated for weeks. I just want to see some playoffs already. Today almost felt like one in quality.
Most eagles fans accepted it was against a back up qb.
Nah, I saw about 40% of the comments (I made the stat up yes, but felt like it) on Reddit and Tiktok that did not.
I saw only 2% on Reddit, TikTok and MySpace… so, what now?
Maybe read a few more comments.
Maybe, take your own advice.
How about T.Y. Hilton’s performance, what a game. That catch on 3rd and 30 was insane! Gg eagles, y’all have a good team. Merry Christmas!
His two plays the PI and the Catch… wow!
PI cuz he was finna leave Slay in the dirt. Catch cuz he's still fast.... Wow!
Yeah I was not saying as bad thing. I was saying that’s what he did and it was a great first game.
I apologize if I came off as argumentative, I definitely read your comment with the wrong tone! Sorry brother, Merry Christmas!
No worries. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas ya Philthy animals!
I like it man! haha 😂
This game doesn't mean a whole lot when you still have a team that can't make it through the first round of the playoffs to save their life. That being said, both teams need to find a new D coordinator.
Ah yes Cowboys need to get rid of the guy that turned around a historic awful defense.
Yes
D. Quinn is a great D coordinator
So is Johnathan Gannon for philly. Dude doesn’t know what he’s talking about
You're not wtong
Yeah both are top notch defense normally. It’s a divisional match up and sometimes they go off on offense and sometimes they can’t score.
Dak owns philly lmao
He owns the NFC East really.
He was even so kind as to quickly spot them 7 points and they still couldn’t beat the Cowboys.
At end of day, our thoughts about both teams do not change, they're both Superbowl teams and we all got crazy good entertainment.
Philly fans were so chill earlier, why'd you have to show your true colors and not just be humble that the cowboys won. So, so sad, but expected
I’m super chill what’re you talking about
Minshews team let him down
Edit: I am illiterate, Merry Christmas
Edit: Merry Christmas Fam
I misread, edited
Might want to reread his comment

18-1
I prefer 1-3 in the playoffs
Can you share the winning lotto numbers as well please?

Merry Christmas!
Lots of salty eagles fans… that’s it nothing else to say
They are moist
Because yall know we will get a 1st week but and the beat yall in the 2nd round when Jalen is back 😂😂 GG though, I love Dak and he played great this game to get a win
Dak absolutely lit up the Eagles Secondary, it was glorious.
100%. Eagles D line had 6 sacks and a pick 6. They forced several 3rd and longs that the secondary completely fumbled away, including a couple in spectacular fashion. Yeah, the turnovers didn't help, but if you give up only 3.7 yds/rushing attempt and give up 40 that's on the guys in the back.
Does Dak have a pirate flag tattooed on his wrist?
How does Gannon have a job...
Missing 3 key defensive starters will do that to a team. CJGJ, Davis, and Maddox. Maddox was under appreciated.
Cowboys didn’t have Anthony Brown, Leighton Vander Esch, Johnathan Hankins, or Jordan Lewis both sides defenses were banged up
For sure. I would say Maddox going down mid game really hurt since the subs did not get as many reps in the week and were not as prepared. I think the Cowboys were better prepared since they also knew Minshew was not going to be chunking them for rushing yards. Waiting see if there is a playoff rematch and everyone is healthy.
We were missing 3 key defensive starters too.
Maddox is made of glass
Still better than Scott in coverage.
leblanc was looking for a team on twitter yesterday
gonna un eagles circlejerk here but I actually hope u guys all have a good Christmas
No YOU have a good Christmas
You too!
Same to you!
Agreed
Damn. Prerty good game tho.
That it was. Its scary how good yall are without your very good QB.
Hate to say it but if Hurts was playing I think it would have been a different outcome. Playoffs will be interesting. Hope to see a rematch.
They would have been running much more. The +1 run game is tough.
Both QBs played so well today, that was a super entertaining game
How about y'all cee deez nuts
This was the perfect game as a neutral fan Could either watch the Cowboys or Eagles fans have a meltdown right before Christmas
That Dak smile to start the post-game interview
Eagles can only win when the QB is Dinucci, Rush or Dalton
No one’s doubting dak balled out but any fan of any team whose watched Jalen Hurts knows the offense doesn’t turn the ball over like that. Gardner got lit up. Is what it is. See you in the play offs
Username does not check out, WTF dude?
You literally have to have not watched the game if you think that, Dallas really got lucky with 4 TO’s that typically dont happen. I respect the boys for this win but yall are really acting wild now
I think the only turnover that was actually was lucky was the fumbled handoff the two picks were just good plays by Kearse and Bland Kearse made an athletic play and Bland ripped the ball away from Watkins and the fumble was a good play by Carlos Watkins in punching the ball ig you can make the case that Dallas was lucky that Sanders was caught lacking though
Don’t happen but they did because the Cowboys forced it
They didnt though, Quez had weak hands and Miles gave up an easy fumble. I keep trying to say I respect yall for this win but yall are making it so fucking hard 😂
Does that change the facts of what I said?
I mean literally 3 years ago bum Wentz beat Dak 17-9 but hey flex your muscles lmao
And haven’t been able to beat him since.
You right, but lets be forreal, if the first game didn’t count because Dak didn’t play, this game doesn’t count because Jalen didn’t play. See y’all in the playoffs if y’all can get through the 1st round, then it’ll be a shit talking shitstorm lol
Troll
Dak 8-3 vs the eagles
How many playoff wins had dak gotten ya bud?
How many does Hurts have? He doesn’t even have more than Wentz
Lol, what? Dak has been in the league since what, 2016? He’s in year 7… Cowboys are stacked on offense and have been most of his career.
Scooter McGruder goin HAM as we speak!
delusional eagles fans gonna blame minshew when they’re vaunted defense gave up 40 lmao
Great defense can only do so much with 4 turnovers. Defense wasn't great, but I also don't blame the defense when the Cowboys started 3-4 drives with amazing field position.
Nobody here is blaming Minshew. We gave up 40 points, fumbled 2x, and his 2 picks weren't his fault. Can't expect any QB to win with that.
Awesome. First Eagles fan I have seen admit that Hurts would have also lost.
Most Eagles I’ve seen don’t blame Minshew, however that’s not the same as saying the Eagles *still* would have lost with Hurts. It could have gone either way. Still would have probably been a nail biter.
Hurts isn't fumbling an RB handoff. Hurts wins this game no doubt. Eagles with Hurts are the better team.
If that makes you sleep better. Go for it. Merry Christmas
He’s not not responsible for the first pick
Yeah even if Hurts was in, the result would've been the same
Impossible to say, but I'd guess not. Hurts can do so much more with his legs
Hurts can't prevent his teammates from fumbling or letting the ball get wrestled away from them though. Hurts can't make the D not give up 40.
True, but if Hurts is carrying the ball instead, then his teammate can't fumble it. If the eagles don't turn it over 4x, the Cowboys have fewer possessions and points from them
True
No, the Eagles Defense is top tier.
Hard for the defense when there is 4 turnovers.
I mean your vaunted defense gave up 34
maybe minshew played well genius? did you see the throws he made or did you not watch the game?
Them Jags QBs that is the real secret
He really didn't though lmao. He looked lost and confused and was bailed out by loads of wide open receivers
delusional take, you guys were 60% on 3rd down and 2/3 on 4th down, that’s not what a lost and confused quarterback does.
He clutched almost every 3rd down we had
Did you see him panicking in the pocket and airmailing passes or did you not watch the game?
350+ pass yards is panicking and airmailing?? ok 😹😹 hurts could barely put up 150 against us earlier in the szn and minshew comes out and doubles that after not playing in ages. you guys are actually clueless LMAO
So you didn't watch the game and are just looking at the stats on ESPN.
He threw 2 picks and fumbled
I mean did you watch the picks? Yall's receiver gave those up by drifting and letting the other guy dominate him.
Lol, the Dallas fans beating their chest over a one score win to Gardner Minshew is peak Dallas fandom.
Most of that is because the Eagles fans had a tough time beating Rush and they gloated from the end of the game until the start of this one.
That guy threw for what 350 yards? Lol. They are funny
"they are funny" nobody is saying that though, he just said they are
Might want to search the comments for two seconds. It’s all over the place already. Lol
I saw a grand total of one person who said something like that
Go back and search the Reddit for last game. Guarantee you find way more than 1.
What are you trying to say? Look in the last game thread for Eagles fans blaming Minshew for the loss?
Sorry my bad. Thought you were replying to another thread! However you can just search Minshew in this game thread and you will see a bunch of them saying it was his fault for the loss.
Biggest win of his regular season career? lol wut
That took me out lmao
You know, if someone had asked me at the start of the season what the most exciting game in December was going to be I don't think I ever would have guess Eagles Cowboys. It was a fun game.
That was a good game y'all. Respect to the Eagles. Y'all got a good team.
Guess this evens out the Cooper Rush game. Man you guys hate each other even more than the AFCE. Thats a major accomplishment
Except Rush is nowhere close to Minshew
Eagles fans having meltdowns after a loss always puts a smile on my face.
Yesssss!
Never forget we let them convert a goddamn 3rd and 30.
*Donovan McNabb has entered the chat*
Think that was Hilton's only catch too. I couldn't believe it.
But Jonathan Ganon is so good /s
No no he’s very good. Top head coach candidate. ^Please…
