The Dallas Cowboys are preparing to face their most hated rival, the Philadelphia Eagles, in a Week 14 showdown that gives the winner the lead in the NFC East. It might be short-lived for the Cowboys, but it’s a big game none the less. This is a rematch of a meeting from earlier in the season where Dallas fell just short, literally inches, on more than one occasion. Now, the Cowboys get their division foes at home, where they’ve won 14 straight games.
Regular season games don’t get much bigger than this, and for the Cowboys a victory would mean shutting up the large group of haters who continue to say they haven’t beaten anybody on their way to nine wins. Beat the Eagles and that complaint goes away to usher in a new excuse to disparage Jerry Jones’ team. Here are six things to know about the Eagles in the Week 14 rematch.
