The Eagles<\/a> are all the rage in Philadelphia, and nothing helps indoctrinate students into the Super Bowl champions like the week the team faces the Dallas Cowboys. In a now-viral video from Alex Holley of Fox29, kids at a local Philadelphia elementary school took out some early-morning frustrations on Cowboys-themed punching bags.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Eagles<\/a>\u00a0(8-2) and Cowboys (4-5-1) are set for a monster showdown on Sunday afternoon that has most of America watching, and could shift the momentum of the NFC.<\/p>\n

A Micah Parsons trade, injuries, and lackluster play through the first nine weeks put Dallas in a hole that now makes every game over the next seven weeks a critical matchup, regardless of the opponent. Days before that showdown at AT&T Stadium, Cowboys stars CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott called Sunday’s matchup against Philadelphia a “must-win playoff game”.<\/a><\/p>\n

Dak Prescott is 21-2 (.913) against NFC East opponents when playing at AT&T Stadium – the highest home winning percentage by any quarterback against division opponents since the NFL merger.<\/p>\n
