Philadelphia Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys

Coverage: ESPN

After beating the Falcons in Week 1, the Eagles shot themselves in the foot in their Week 2 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Eight penalties and a low third-down efficiency led to them putting up only 11 points. If there is a positive to take away from this game, it is that the defense showed up yet again, allowing only 17 points. They did, however, suffer some serious injuries, and it will be tough to overcome them going forward.

The Cowboys are coming off a 3-point win over the Chargers in a game they probably should not have won. Still, they did, and now they begin their three-game homestand. This will be Prescott’s first game back in the building since his leg injury last October. The crowd is going to be hot, and that energy could spill over to the defensive side. Dallas also has a few players out tonight, but they are still the NFL betting favorite at home.
