The Dallas Cowboys defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, 29-23, in overtime, on Sunday night. We all saw it. Even with the Eagles leading by 10 at the half, and later again in the second half, it never felt like the birds were truly winning the game. It always seemed like the Cowboys were getting the better of them.
Despite my feelings watching it and the final outcome, the Eagles players believe Eagles>Cowboys.
Fletcher Cox: “We are the better team. I’ll make that statement.” #Eagles

Graham: We’ll see them at the end (of the season) when it counts #Eagles

Interesting that these are defensive players coming out and saying this, as that unit had the best night for the Eagles, but overall, at least on Sunday night, the Cowboys were better than the Eagles.
