Lawlor: This Showdown Is Extra Special

Eagles-Cowboys is always a big rivalry game. This year, the first meeting will also have a huge impact on the standings. Dallas is in first place and the Eagles are right behind. The Eagles have a monumental opportunity on Sunday night when they go down to Dallas. A win puts Philly in first place in the NFC East. It puts the Eagles three games above .500 and helps the team to build some momentum heading into the heart of the season.

A loss would drop the Eagles to 4-3 and the team could possibly be in last place in the division.
