Currently on a four-game winning streak, the Philadelphia Eagles will fly to Sunday’s NFC East showdown with rivals Dallas Cowboys full of confidence in claiming the W at AT&T Stadium.
While Washington lead the way in the division, the Eagles are hot on the Commanders’ heels, with Philly earning wins against the Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, Cincinnati Bengals and the Jacksonville Jaguars in their last four games.
In contrast, things have been looking pretty bleak for the Cowboys, who currently find themselves on a three-game losing streak after defeats to the Detroit Lions, San Francisco 49ers and Atlanta Falcons.
Without a win at AT&T Stadium this season, and with star quarterback Dak Prescott out injured, it’s hard to see Dallas pulling off their first home win of the campaign against Nick Sirianni’s high-flying Eagles this weekend.

Eagles can add to Cowboys’ woes
With Prescott potentially out for the remainder of the season with a serious hamstring injury, things just seem to be going from bad to worse for the Dallas Cowboys.
A team that has an almost non-existent running game, Dallas were relying heavily on the passing talents of Prescott to deliver wins.
Those victories have not exactly been forthcoming and now, with Prescott sidelined for the foreseeable future, Cooper Rush is the man who will have to fill the void at quarterback.
The Cowboys next face an Eagles side that are finding their rhythm on offence, with quarterback Jalen Hurts having an abundance of weapons at his disposal.
Wide receivers A.J Brown and DeVonta Smith are threats through the air, while running back Saquon Barkley has transformed the Eagles’ rushing game this season.
With the Eagles defence having been questioned in the past, they have been having more joy in recent weeks and should make life difficult for the Cowboys this weekend.
Coach Sirianni has continued to come under fire with his play-calling despite the Eagles run, so as long as he leaves his ego at the doors of AT&T Stadium, Philly should get the job done down in Texas.
Hurts back in the groove
Starting to find the kind of form that helped the Eagles reach Super Bowl LVII in February 2023, Hurts has been winning over some of his doubters in recent weeks.
Pulling off big plays through the air, while having the luxury of being able to hand the ball over to someone of Barkley’s talents, Hurts has been cooking on offence for the Eagles.
With eight rushing touchdowns already this season, Hurts has been a real threat on the ground.
While defenders might be concerned with what Barkley can do, Hurts has been making the most of the extra time and space afforded to him.
Having scored a rushing touchdown against the Jaguars last time out, look to Hurts to add to his healthy touchdown collection by going over against the Cowboys on Sunday.
