When the NFL schedule dropped in the spring, the expectations was the Dallas Cowboys’ trip to Philadelphia would be one of the Monday Night Football highlights of the season. Instead, both teams are 2-4 and now the Eagles are without quarterback Jalen Hurts as they get ready to put Tanner McKee in against Dallas.
The Cowboys, meanwhile, haven’t played well on defense and are slumping on offense. The state of the NFC East, though, is such that the winner of this game is still in reasonable position to make a run.
Dallas is a 4-point road favorite as it looks to break a two-game losing streak.
