The Cowboys were just 2-for-7 in the second half. “It was kind of like, oh shoot, the ball was snapped. And it happened to the Eagles in the fourth quarter against their most-hated rival on Sunday afternoon in North Texas. “It was like right as the ball was snapped,” Scott said. S—, we just have to get depth and stuff like that. We just gotta do our job.” Dak Prescott aired out a deep ball to 33-year-old T.Y.

He’s got a lot of experience playing Dallas, and I was able to lean on that. There’s a ton of guys who’ve put in a lot of effort into this season and I don’t want to let them down. DeVonta Smith made a couple miraculous catches and picked up his third 100-yard game in the last four week, increasing his season totals to 79-for-1,014.
