Eagles' Early Lead Fades, Cowboys Mount Comeback
24 Nov
Summary
- Eagles established a 21-0 lead early in the game.
- Dak Prescott threw two touchdown passes to narrow the deficit.
- Eagles defense committed multiple penalties on Cowboys' scoring drive.
The Philadelphia Eagles initially dominated the game, establishing a significant 21-0 advantage. However, their early momentum waned as the Dallas Cowboys mounted a determined comeback, bringing the score to 21-14 late in the third quarter. The Eagles' offense has stalled after their initial scoring spree, failing to convert on several subsequent possessions.
Dak Prescott has been instrumental in the Cowboys' resurgence, throwing two touchdown passes. His second score, a 4-yard pass to Brevyn Spann-Ford with just over two minutes remaining in the third quarter, brought the Cowboys within a single touchdown. Prescott's performance includes 18 completions for 254 yards, despite an interception, and a key 48-yard pass to CeeDee Lamb that set up the latest score.
The Eagles' defense has shown signs of strain, committing multiple pass interference penalties during the Cowboys' scoring drive. A dropped interception by Zack Baun also contributed to the Cowboys' ability to extend their possession and narrow the gap. The remainder of the third quarter will be critical in determining the game's trajectory.
