Don’t know what Doug said to the team at half-time, but it definitely turned the game around. The Eagles just out-right dominated the Cowboys in the 2nd half last night.
After holding the Cowboys to a field goal on the first drive of the game following Switzer’s 61 yard kickoff return, the Eagles put together a beautiful drive that led to a touchdown. I sat there thinking this is going to be a blowout. But then the wheels started to come off a bit. The team seemed to be out of sync for some reason and it seemed like it was going to be a tough game. Started to worry at that point that Dallas might beat us.
What a turn around! The Eagles came out in the second half and took over the game. They were the team we have been seeing for the previous 8 games. A team that knows how to win. It is beautiful to watch. Offense, Defense, Special teams, are all working together and dominating. I can’t remember a time when I have been able to watch an Eagles game and remain so calm at the end of a game. The Eagles outscored the Cowboys 30 – 0 in the second half and walked away with a 37 – 9 victory over the Dallas Cowboys in their ostentatious home. Go Birds!
