Philadelphia Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys Prediction

Dak Prescott is starting to throw. But the Cowboys won't be wise to play Prescott until he's 110 percent ready.

Prescott's backup, Cooper Rush, has led the Cowboys to a 4-0 record since Prescott's absence. The Cowboys would better play Prescott against a bad defense to get him comfortable again.

The Cowboys have scored 18.6 points per game this season. It's not like Rush is the savior. The offense hasn't been insane. However, Rush hasn't thrown an interception in his four games. That's helped the defense get stops, as they've been able to use the entire field.

Dallas has struggled against the run to begin the season, but the pass coverage and the pass rush have been electric.

On the other hand, the Eagles continue to put up points with Jalen Hurts under center. He's accounted for ten touchdowns, including six rushing touchdowns. The other running backs have earned plenty of touchdowns as well.

The Eagles are averaging four touchdowns per game and have earned 431.8 yards per game. They've been hard to stop. With the Cowboys struggling against the run a little bit, Philadelphia has an area they can exploit.

Defensively, the Eagles are missing tackles. But despite finishing tackles, Philadelphia has allowed 17.6 points per game and 319.2 yards per game. The secondary and pass rush has been good, and the run defense has at least been above average, giving up 105 yards per game.

As long as the Eagles have success rushing the football, the Cowboys likely won't be able to keep up offensively.

I've got the Eagles staying undefeated on Sunday night.
