Dallas hosted the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football to give one of the best matches for the locals so far at the start of the season with Elliott as one of the party figures thanks to his connection to Prescott.
Both teams got off to a shaky start but immediately Dallas had the first six points with six plays on three great carries in which Elliott shone to receive a pass and enter the end zone.

The locals started with a great offense and not to mention the defensive part, because at Philadelphia’s first opportunity, lthe visitors delivered an intercepted ballor, however Dallas was boxed in and a fumble caused the touchdown to tie the cards.

The next few minutes were for Schultz and Elliott, there was even controversy whye player with jersey 21 was left out of the diagonals in a play that was reviewed because first it looked like annotation.
Schulz wanted his first six points of the match and received a single pass from Prescott to the left rival to enter almost solo.

Minutes later, Hurts received a capture by Parsons, toIt seemed that the night was coming for the visitor, since in the next quarter they lost several opportunities to go out to gain yards.
On the return of the ovoid to Elliott and Schultz, the Lone Star players were able to add yards down the field and thus other points fell to the board, even later a defensive captured Hurts to end the first half with a score of 7-20 in a clear Cowboys lead.

After halftime, Philadelphia wanted to re-enter the game but Hurts put the ball down after a receiver slipped and the ball fell into possession for Diggs who made a return without problems and inserted to the low zone to add another six points.

Without a doubt, the defense of the locals prevented the institution in front from being able to enter the end zones. Several times they pressured Hurts and took away chances, although the quarterback was inspired and placed a shot with his arm that Ertz took to get into the game.

Later it seemed that the Eagles were coming to the comeback, however they lost the ball again by not running enough and Prescott did not let go of this moment so with a long possession he culminated with some side steps to give Wilson a chocolate, player who at the edge of the finish line put both tips of the foot and score another round of seven points with the extra.

With a marker for oblivion, the Philadelphia people kept the faith and one play by Hurts, who extended his arm, was enough for Ward to partially get into the game the ones in green in a quick series. The problem is that the time ran out at AT&T Stadium, there was no more for anyone. Thus ended a night in which Dallas worked to take the victory
