Despite their 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Dallas Cowboys remain optimistic and focused on their progress.
They left Lincoln Financial Field feeling that the game was much closer than the five-point margin suggests.
Several critical moments, such as an overturned touchdown, Dak Prescott’s foot out of bounds on a 2-point play, and a fumble recovery that almost went their way, all favored the Eagles.
However, the Cowboys are undeterred by the outcome. Dak Prescott emphasized that they believe in themselves and their improvement, even though they didn’t pass this test.
Micah Parsons echoed this sentiment, expressing increased confidence and a desire to face the Eagles again in four weeks.
With a 5-3 record, the Cowboys trail the Eagles (8-1) by 2.5 games in the NFC East. A victory in this game and the next against the New York Giants could have put them in the division’s first place and potentially atop the conference. Coach Mike McCarthy remains optimistic, pointing out that there’s plenty of football left in the season.
The team’s mood is significantly improved compared to their earlier loss to the San Francisco 49ers. They believe in their ability to make a strong run when the time is right.
The Cowboys have a rematch with the Eagles on December 10, following a three-game home stand. They have a strong record at AT&T Stadium, where they have won 11 consecutive games.
The game against the Eagles saw the Cowboys fight back from a 14-0 run by their opponents in the third quarter, coming within inches of a potential touchdown in the final seconds.
In conclusion, the Cowboys, while not satisfied with the loss, maintain their belief in their ability to contend in the NFL. They acknowledge the Eagles’ strength but are committed to continuous improvement and working towards their goals.
