Will the NFC East finally see a clear frontrunner emerge? Monday Night Football could provide the answer when the Dallas Cowboys visit the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field.
While a matchup between two NFC East teams doesn't guarantee a winner—just ask the Giants and Commanders—the odds are that one team will leave Monday's primetime clash in a favorable position within a lackluster division. The loser, meanwhile, will fall to 2-5.
The Eagles enter the game riding a four-game losing streak and dealing with a slew of injuries, including the season-long absence of quarterback Jalen Hurts, who was diagnosed with blood clots in his lungs. However, Philadelphia will get a boost with the return of running back Saquon Barkley.
For the Cowboys, the focus is more on correcting their issues than getting healthy. Dallas may have to win despite its defense this season, but Brian Schottenheimer's offense knows it must perform better than it did against the Packers in Week 6 for the Cowboys to achieve their goals.
