Cowboys Surge as Eagles Flounder: NFC East Race Tightens
FRISCO,TX – The NFL landscape is shifting in the NFC East.While the Philadelphia Eagles were once considered runaway leaders, a stunning two-game losing streak has opened the door for the Dallas Cowboys, who are riding a wave of momentum with three consecutive victories.
The Cowboys demonstrated their resilience in week 12, mounting a remarkable comeback from a 21-0 deficit to defeat the Eagles 24-21. That victory proved pivotal, as Philadelphia than stumbled again, falling to the Chicago Bears 24-15 on Friday.
This recent downturn has significantly tightened the divisional race. The Eagles now hold an 8-4 record, just 1.5 games ahead of the Cowboys (6-5-1). Crucially, Dallas has seized the tiebreaker advantage, having won the head-to-head matchup. The Cowboys also boast a superior divisional record at 3-1, compared to the Eagles’ 2-2.
Looking Ahead: Schedule Favors Dallas?
Analysts are begining to suggest the Cowboys may have the more favorable path to a playoff berth, particularly given their recent form. A look at the remaining schedules for both teams supports this argument.
