Philadelphia Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys: Spread Info, Line and Predictions

The NFC East will go a long way towards being decided on Saturday when the Philadelphia Eagles travel to take on the Dallas Cowboys.

The Eagles defeated the Cowboys, 34-7, when the two teams met in Philadelphia in Week 8.

Where: Cowboys Stadium. Arlington, Tex.

When: Saturday, Dec. 24 at 4:15 p.m. EST

Watch: Fox

Spread

Cowboys (-1.5), according to Sportsbook. 

In Dallas, this is a good number to go with. We know that Philadelphia can be good, but they also struggle to remain consistent, which is why they're 6-8.

Over/Under

50.5, according to Sportsbook. 

This will be close, but I am going with the under here. Both offenses struggle to get the ball in the end zone, and these defenses are just opportunistic enough to take advantage of that.

Key Injuries

Eagles DE Darryl Tapp is questionable.

Eagles CB Asante Samuel and WR DeSean Jackson are probable. 

Cowboys DT Josh Brent is doubtful

Cowboys T Tyron Smith, RB Felix Jones and WR Kevin Ogletree are questionable.

Cowboys DE Demarcus Ware and DT Jeremiah Ratliff are probable. 

Fantasy Big Plays

Cowboys RB Sammy Morris. With Felix Jones banged up and the Eagles run defense being quite vulnerable, look for Morris to get some nice yardage. 

Eagles WR is a good play. He had a solid game against the Jets, and Dallas doesn't have anywhere near that kind of secondary.

Keys to Eagles Win

Get to Tony Romo early. They have a great rush, but if Romo is given time to throw, Philadelphia will have a long day.

Keys to Cowboys Win

Run the ball. That will keep Philadelphia's defense guessing, which will lead to a Dallas win.

Prediction: Cowboys 24, Eagles 20

In Dallas, the advantage goes to the Cowboys. Dallas will take a huge step towards clinching the division. If the Giants fall to the Jets, they will clinch the division.
