The Dallas Cowboys are 2-0, defeating the Eagles on the road this week! Here is a look at the plays that led them to victory.
The Cowboys’ secondary has been playing fast so far this season, allowing just 417 passing yards in two games. Tyler Patmon has been a big contributor and was able to caress this ball out of the hands of Miles Austin to force an Eagles punt –

The Cowboys also shut down DeMarco Murray and the Philadelphia rushing attack, thanks in large part to Sean Lee. Here he is stuffing the run on multiple occasions –

Of course, there was also this beautiful blocked punt that extended the lead on the first possession of the second half.
The only thing better than blocking a punt?

The offense did not dominate by any means, especially after Tony Romo went down. Here is a look at the play that fractured his clavicle.

However, Scott Linehan did a good job of giving Brandon Weeden throws he could complete – to playmakers that can take them to the house.
Point and case – Terrance Williams –
