Eagles’ backups show some fight in mostly meaningless loss to Cowboys’ starters, 51 to 26

The Philadelphia Eagles are 9-8 after losing to the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday evening. Final score: 51 to 26.

This game obviously wasn’t very meaningful for the Eagles, who rested almost all of their starters. The Birds’ backups actually put forth a respectable effort against the Cowboys’ starters at first before the game really got out of hand in the second half.

Read on for some observations and stay tuned for more postgame coverage.

  • The Cowboys won the coin toss and elected to defer so the Eagles’ offense was up first.
