Philadelphia Eagles flashbacks: Philly’s 15 best victories over Dallas
December 7th of 2003: Eagles: 36, Cowboys: 10
This one opened with everyone knowing it would be yet another game with the NFC East hanging in the balance, Dallas visited Lincoln Financial Field in hopes of completing a season sweep. They had previously beaten them in Week 6 by a 23-21 score. The Eagles apparently didn’t read the itinerary.
This one was tied at ten points at the break, but in the second half, the Eagles defense held the Cowboys scoreless while putting up 26 points of their own, not a bad showing by the ‘Birds’ as they would go on to win the NFC East.
November 27th of 2014: Eagles: 33, Cowboys: 10
Seeing as how the Cowboys haven’t sniffed championship glory since the 1996 season, Thanksgiving Day has become sort of their Super Bowl, but in this one, the ‘Birds’ did the feasting. Philly held the Cowboys scoreless in the first and fourth quarters, put up 33 points of their own, and gave Eagles fans all over the country a reason to brag on ‘Black Friday’.
