The Cowboys insist the sting of the blowout loss to the 49ers is a distant memory.
Maybe the glib Cowboys owner was too transparent when he billed his team’s Oct. 8 game against the 49ers as a measuring stick for just how good his team is. , it provided a rare sobering moment for Jones, and it smacked of Jones and his team putting too many eggs into one basket so early in the season.
Fast forward to Sunday when the 5-2 Cowboys face a much more consequential game at 7-1 Philadelphia in an NFC East showdown. “We’re not going to compare this,” Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott told reporters this week, referring to the San Francisco loss. “Obviously, we learned a lot about that. In a sense, that’s apples and oranges. It’s a big game. I know how we’re going to approach the week. Yeah, it’s a matchup we’re looking forward to.
Prescott’s playoff record is 2-4, and that will remain hanging over his head until it improves. Sunday’s game in Philadelphia isn’t a playoff game, but it’s a game that can shape where the Cowboys might play in the postseason once they get there. On the Eagles’ side, there’s concern about their quarterback, Hurts, who’s been playing through a left knee injury. He toughed it out last week and threw for 319 yards and four TDs in an Eagles win over Washington.
