Just as everything seemed to be going the Cowboys’ way after taking Philadelphia to the woodshed, fans got a reality check Tuesday regarding several players the club was hoping to get back for Week 4. Coach Mike McCarthy revealed that some unfortunate injuries are taking longer than the three-week minimum mandated by IR rules.
But there’s still plenty of good news to bask in after Monday night’s win. We’re breaking down tape to see how Kellen Moore kept the Eagles defense guessing, Ezekiel Elliott isn’t the least bit upset about missing out on 100 yards, Trevon Diggs used his Alabama connections to log the first pick-six of his pro career, and the Cowboys social media team had some fun with that infamous T-shirt that Eagles coach Nick Sirianni was wearing. Plus a collection of all the postgame coverage from Cowboys Wire, an odd cameo appearance by Dez Bryant, talk of a new winning culture in Dallas, and how you can soak in Emmitt Smith’s hot tub. Seriously. That’s all ahead in this edition of News and Notes.
