The Dallas Cowboys had a point to prove entering their Week 14 showdown. Through the first half, they’ve made that point with exclamations. The Cowboys offense scored on all four of their first-half possessions, including a 60-yard field goal by rookie kicker Brandon Aubrey and bookended by two Dak Prescott passing touchdowns.
After stopping the Eagles’ last drive of the first half and forcing them into a made field goal, the Cowboys got the ball back with under two minutes remaining. That proved to be more than enough time for Dak Prescott and company as they marched down the field for their third 75-yard touchdown drive of the game.
The big play was a Prescott deep seam pass to WR Brandin Cooks down to the one-yard line, which they followed up with a one-yard toss to Michael Gallup.
