The Five Biggest Plays in Eagles 27-16 W from lovelystyle's blog

PHILADELPHIA Here are my five biggest plays that led to the Eagles 26-17 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night:1.INTERCEPTION NO. 1It came from Chauncey Gardner-Johnson and led to the Eagles second TD and a 14-0 lead. How important was that? It was the first time the Cowboys Tom Seaver Jersey had given up two offensive touchdowns in the same game this season. Their defense had allowed only five in five games, so getting two before halftime is big. Of course, give an a sist to James Bradberry on the play, who broke up the pa s intended for Michael Gallup.2. THIRD-AND-FOURIt was a pivotal down on the Eagles fourth-quarter march to blunt Dallas comeback. It was there, at their own 44, that Jalen Hurts watched the two Cowboys defenders who looked like they were going to blitz in both center/guard gaps but backed off.The QB just followed them up Dwight Gooden Jersey the field but needed to plant his right foot in the ground to avoid a defender in order to get that extra yard that gave the Eagles a new set of downs.The Eagles converted 6-of-14 third downs (42.9%).Scroll to Continue3. THE NEUTRAL ZONE INFRACTIONFacing fourth-and-four at Dallas 10 Mike Piazza Jersey on the Eagles first scoring drive, Dante Fowler jumped into the neutral zone for a 5-yard penalty. It may not have been called had left tackle Jordan Mailata not alertly sprung from his stance. On the next play, Miles Sanders ran in from 5 yards away.4. INTERCEPTION NO. 3Gardner-Johnsons second pick of the game - his two sandwiched a Darius Slay pick - realistically extinguished any flickering hopes the Cowboys had of coming back from nine points. CGJ returned his third Juan Lagares Jersey interception of the season, and third in his last two games, 15 yards with 5:03 to play.5. THE 51-YARD FIELD GOALThe Eagles were in danger of letting the Cowboys off the hook after Dallas failed to convert a fourth-and-inches from their own 34, thanks to the second of James Bradberrys four pa s breakups in the game.The Eagles' offense did nothing in three plays except advance the ball a yard. Jake Elliott, who was returning after mi sing a game with an injured right ankle, was called on to make a kick from 51 yards.He was good on both PATs, but this try was further. Marcus Stroman Jersey He made it by plenty for his longest field goal of the season and a 17-0 Eagles lead.
