On Sunday Night Football, the Philadelphia Eagles visit AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas for an NFC East showdown with the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles lost on Sunday to the Minnesota Vikings 38-20. Carson Wentz threw for 306 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in the loss, but the constant pressure and quarterback sacks kept Philly from mounting any fourth quarter comeback. The Eagles secondary battered by injuries was burned several times by Kirk Cousins.
Dallas fell to 3-3 on the season after losing to the New York Jets 24-22 for its third consecutive loss. The Cowboys trailed in the fourth quarter 21-9 but rallied to score a 4-yard touchdown with just 43 seconds remaining to get within two points. However, a two-point conversion came up short and an on-side kick by the Cowboys was recovered by the Jets who ran out the clock.
Carson Wentz has thrown for 1,458 yards, 12 touchdowns and three interceptions. Jordan Howard leads the Eagles in rushing with 297 yards and four touchdowns.
