Week 7 vs. PHI

Date published: Oct. 22, 2019


Following this game, DAL is No. 1 in NFL in total offensive yardage, No. 4 in in rushing AND passing.


Very un-Cowboys game vs. PHI: Actually had turnovers! Scored 21 of 37 points off turnovers! Actually had good starting field position! Started each drive on DAL-42 (avg.)!


Also showed they score on a long field - four scoring drives starting from DAL-30 or worse.


Fun fact: Eagles worst games against the rush since 2016 have come against DAL 5 times; Week 7 was second-worst for PHI against any opponent since 2016.


DAL Offense:

402 yards

32:22 TOP

6.1 yards per play

8-14 3rd down conv

3-5 red zone conv


DAL offense was great against the blitz in this one: 7 offensive plays, 7 pass completions out of 7 pass attempts, 79 passing yards, 1 TD, 0 sack, 0 TO


DAL offense with 7 play-action passes: 2 for first downs, 1 for TD, 1 INT (garbage time)


Great stuff from Michael Irvin in this piece on Amari + Dak trusting a route with Dak having to get the ball out before Amari is there.
