Cowboys May Have Reset NFC Playoff Race with Beatdown of Eagles

One week, the Cowboys are sloppy, error-prone and uninspired. They lose to the 1-4 Jets.

A week later, something changes, and Dallas looks gritty, fast and unbeatable in beating up on the Eagles 37-10 on Sunday night. Quarterback Dak Prescott played angry, his passes like a marksman's arrows. Ezekiel Elliott was shifty, and the defense made Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz look like Carson Daly.

Will the real Dallas Cowboys please stand up?

After a three-game losing streak, and renewed speculation that coach Jason Garrett could lose his job, the Cowboys demolished a team many thought would win the NFC East to establish themselves as the division leaders.
