Cowboys at Eagles 11/11/18 - NFL Picks & Predictions

NFC East Division rivals will square off on Sunday night, when the Dallas Cowboys travel to Lincoln Financial Field to battle the Philadelphia Eagles. There is reason for concern in Dallas, as the Cowboys have lost five of their first eight games and are two games out of first place. On Monday night, Dallas looked outclassed coming off a bye week and suffered a 28-14 home loss versus Tennessee. The Cowboys gained just 297 yards of total offense and turned the ball over twice in defeat.

Through eight games, Dallas features an offense that ranks 27th in yards gained and scores at a 19.3 point clip. Philadelphia counters with a defense that ranks 17th in yards allowed and gives up 19.5 points per game. The defending Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles have split their first eight games and have not lived up to expectations to this point. The Eagles are coming off a bye and took care of business in London with a 24-18 victory versus Jacksonville last time out. Carson Wentz threw for 286 yards and three touchdowns for Philadelphia, who outgained Jacksonville by a 395-335 margin on the afternoon.

For the season, Philadelphia ranks 15th in total offense and averages 22.3 points per game. Dallas owns a talented defense that ranks 4th in yards allowed and allows 18.9 points per contest.
