Eagles @ Cowboys Final Injury Report: Barry Church Questionable

Coordinator Scott Linehan kept the Eagles off-balance in the opener, but was aided by Philadelphia sitting in off-man coverage outside even when QB Tony Romo went down. Jordan Matthews and Zach Ertz have combined for 668 receiving yards and one touchdown while Riley Cooper has 11 receptions.

Philadelphia Eagles running back DeMarco Murray.

At 3-4, it’s only fitting that the Eagles are close to a. 500 record because a lot of their statistical rankings are right near the middle of the NFL. With the current receiver woes and a Cowboys Defense that admittedly looks stronger than when the teams last played, the running game will be more important than ever.

“We just want to win”, cornerback Byron Maxwell told the team’s official website. Obviously in our division it gives us a chance every week. The best thing about form is that it’s temporary. I think the frustration just lies with everybody in this room, in this organization.

“As bad as it has been, and as unfortunate as it has been to lose those five games, we have been competitive”, Cassel said. “That’s including myself. We have to get better”. I’m not frustrated by the yards and whatnot. They haven’t had a longer one in a single season since going 1-15 in Troy Aikman’s 1989 rookie year. He sat out practice. Cowboys safety Jeff Heath will not be fined by the National Football League for his hit on Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Ricardo Lockette, who needed surgery to stabilize ligaments in his neck. “I know that they’re going to come off on their blocks and do their job”. It’s not about stats, touchdowns and all that stuff.

Matt Cassel will start his third straight game after Brandon Weeden struggled as Romo’s replacement, while Darren McFadden gets his second consecutive start in the backfield in Randle’s place.

After rushing for just two yards on 13 carries against his former team in their first meeting this season, expect DeMarco Murray to be extra motivated in his return to Jerry World.

As healthy as they have been all season, the Philadelphia Eagles returned to practice Tuesday in preparation for a NFC East showdown with the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Defensively, Philadelphia is allowing 19.6 points and 360.4 yards per game. Or they can come back wearing the opposing team’s colors.

Fantasy Impact: “It pisses me off, when you feel like you can dominate the guys up front, then you go out there and don’t get it done”, said Lane Johnson, the Eagles’ right tackle. So we don’t spend our time like that. “Obviously I’m sure emotions will be high with a lot of people but it’s just another game”.

Meanwhile, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones has no regrets about letting Murray – and his 1,845 rushing yards in 2014 – walk out the door.
