The Cowboys definitely had a nice Sunday. After beating the Eagles 24-0, the Cowboys should be brimming with confidence. Nobody expected them to shut out the Eagles but they managed to do so easily.
Tony Romo got things going early on, throwing a pair of touchdown passes to Jason Witten and Patrick Crayton, respectively. Romo ended up completing 24 of 31 attempts for 311 yards. He’s finally heating up and looks just as good as the other top quarterback. By the end of the first half it was clear that something was wrong with Eagles.
From then on the Cowboys focused on their defense, which did just enough to prevent the Eagles from gaining any momentum. The Eagles couldn’t convert on third downs and made a couple errors that could have changed the tide of the game.
This is the time of the season when the Cowboys usually break down. If they continue communicating well on both fronts, the Cowboys might just be the team to beat in the playoffs. Strangely enough, they’ll face the Eagles in the first round. After today’s game, I’m sure they’re more than ready.
