    5. Final Injury Report

    Dallas Cowboys

    Key notes from recent reports: Fox Sports+1

    • Dak Prescott, QB

    • Listed on the report with a hip issue.

  • Expected to play and start in Week 12.

  • Jadeveon Clowney, DE

    • Status: Questionable (shoulder, limited participation).

  • Hakeem Adeniji, OT

    • Status: Questionable (illness, missed practice).

  • Other Cowboys defenders

    • Perrion Winfrey and Donovan Wilson have been on the report but have trended toward playing, helping stabilize a struggling defense. 

    Overall, Dallas is relatively healthy on offense but still piecing things together on defense.

    Philadelphia Eagles

    The big story for Philadelphia is on the offensive line. 

    • OUT:

    • RT Lane Johnson (Lisfranc injury, expected multi week absence).

  • Questionable:

    • C Cam Jurgens (concussion protocol, trending toward playing).

  • OL Willie Lampkin

  • OL Myles Hinton

  • Expected to play:

    • WR DeVonta Smith, traveling separately due to personal reasons but has no game status designation.

    Losing Lane Johnson is huge for the Eagles and could tilt pass protection matchups in favor of the Cowboys pass rush.

    6. Key Players and Matchups To Watch

    Dallas Cowboys

    • QB Dak Prescott

    • 2,587 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, 6 interceptions, league leading QBR through Week 11. 

  • Coming off a 4 touchdown performance against the Raiders and playing at home where this offense has been explosive.

  • RB Javonte Williams

    • Physical runner who just posted 93 rushing yards vs Las Vegas. 

  • Critical for balance and keeping the Eagles defense honest.

  • WR group and playmakers

    • CeeDee Lamb plus new targets like George Pickens have made Dallas one of the most dangerous passing attacks in the NFL, ranking near the top of the league in passing yards and points scored. 

    Philadelphia Eagles

    • QB Jalen Hurts

    • 1,995 passing yards, 16 touchdowns, only 1 interception in 2025. 

  • Efficiency and ball security are elite, even as the Eagles offense has dipped in total yardage.

  • WR A.J. Brown and WR DeVonta Smith

    • Still one of the league’s most dangerous duos, even if overall passing numbers are down. Hurts has delivered big spike games against the Giants and Vikings this year. 

  • Eagles Defense

    • Top ranked red zone unit and a group that has carried an offense that ranks outside the top 20 in total yards. 

    Marquee Matchups

    • Dak Prescott and the Cowboys passing attack vs the Eagles secondary

    • Dallas ranks near the top of the NFL in passing yards and total offense. 

  • If the offensive line protects, Prescott can push the ball vertically and challenge corners on the outside.

  • Cowboys pass rush vs a banged up Eagles offensive line

    • No Lane Johnson at right tackle is a major advantage spot for Dallas edge rushers.

    8. Expert Predictions and Analyst Takes

    Recent national pieces lean slightly toward the Eagles, but almost everyone expects a tight game.

    • Several models and analysts project the Eagles to cover a small road favorite spread around -3. 

  • Betting previews highlight:

    • Cowboys offense as more explosive overall.

  • Eagles defense and discipline as the deciding edge in the fourth quarter. 

  • For fantasy football:

    • Start: Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith.

  • Upside plays: Javonte Williams in standard leagues, Hurts for rushing floor and touchdown equity.

  • 9. Keys To The Game For Cowboys

    From a Cowboys fan perspective, here is what absolutely has to happen:

    1. Protect Dak at all costs

    • When Prescott has a clean pocket, he has played at an MVP level in 2025. Keeping the rush away, especially on third down, is the foundation of any upset bid. 

  • Attack the backup right tackle and stress the Eagles line

    • With Lane Johnson out, Dallas must win on the edge and force Hurts into quicker decisions. Hits, sacks and early pressure could flip this game. 

  • Finish drives with touchdowns, not field goals

    • The Eagles are elite in the red zone. Dallas has to match that efficiency and convert red zone trips into six points, not three. 

  • Limit Hurts on the ground

    • Hurts may have modest passing totals some weeks but still breaks games with his legs. Containing designed runs and scrambles is a priority. 

  • Ride the AT&T Stadium energy

    • Dallas is a different team at home. Fast starts, big plays to the crowd and keeping momentum on their side can neutralize Eagles experience in close games. 

    10. Cowboys Nation Call To Action

    This is not just another regular season game.

    It is a chance for the Cowboys to:

    • Stop the Eagles from running away with the NFC East.

  • Prove that this offense can score on the best defense in the conference.

  • Turn AT&T Stadium into a nightmare for Jalen Hurts and his offense.

  • Cowboys Nation, it is time to be loud, proud and relentless.
    Paint AT&T Stadium in navy, silver and white, bring the noise on every third down and make this a true home field advantage.

    Let’s go Cowboys. Beat Philly in Week 12.

    Dallas Is Catching Fire at the Worst Possible Time… for the Eagles
    Cowboys Surging, Eagles Stumbling: Dallas Holds Every Advantage Entering Crucial NFC Showdown If you look beyond the records and dive into how both teams are actually playing, the contrast is stark — and it’s why this Cowboys–Eagles clash suddenly feels heavily tilted in Dallas’ favor. Eagles: Winning, But Showing Serious Cracks Philadelphia’s recent wins have resembled survival more than dominance. Beating teams 10–7 and 16–9 isn’t just “ugly football” — it’s a warning sign. Their offense has lacked rhythm, juice, and any sort of consistency. Sustained drives have been rare, explosive plays are disappearing, and the passing game has looked disjointed for weeks. The biggest problem? The Eagles are relying almost exclusively on their defense to drag them across the finish line. When a team repeatedly depends on low-scoring slugfests, it usually means the fundamentals on offense simply aren’t there. And nothing about Philly’s current form suggests those issues will magically disappear against a Dallas unit that’s trending in the opposite direction. Even worse, Philadelphia’s offensive line — once the most dominant unit in football — hasn’t been playing to its usual standard. Protection breakdowns and communication issues are starting to show up on tape, contributing to stalled drives and a quarterback who looks uncomfortable more often than he should. Cowboys: Explosive, Balanced, and Clearly Ascending Dallas, meanwhile, looks like a team finding its stride at exactly the right time. Their offense is moving with confidence and pace. Scoring 17 and then exploding for 33 shows a unit that’s building rhythm — and more importantly, stacking successful drives instead of relying on flashes. The Cowboys’ scheme has also opened up noticeably. Motion is being used more effectively, the middle of the field is becoming a consistent target, and the run-pass balance is creating mismatches that Philadelphia’s weakened secondary may struggle to handle. And all of that revolves around one player. Dak Prescott: Playing the Best Football of His Career Dak Prescott is operating on an elite level. Efficient, decisive, and completely in command, he’s the engine driving Dallas’ resurgence. He’s on the verge of becoming the Cowboys’ all-time passing leader — and he’s doing it while playing the cleanest, smartest football of his career. This isn’t just “good Dak.” This is MVP-form Dak. He’s: Reading defenses faster Getting the ball out on time Creating plays outside structure when needed Protecting the football Elevating everyone around him Meanwhile, Philadelphia’s passing attack still looks like it’s stuck in preseason mode — inconsistent timing, limited creativity, and an alarming lack of vertical threat despite having weapons capable of more. It’s become predictable, and predictable is dangerous against a Dallas defense built to feast on quarterbacks who can’t stretch the field. Momentum Matters — And Dallas Has All of It Football is a game of trends, confidence, and timing. Right now, Dallas is ascending across the board: offensively, defensively, and in leadership. The Eagles? They’re winning, but showing every sign of a team losing its grip. When you combine Dallas’ offensive rhythm with Dak’s MVP-caliber surge, plus a matchup that leans heavily in the Cowboys’ favor, the formula becomes hard to ignore. Prediction Cowboys 27, Eagles 17.Dak Prescott controls the game, Dallas makes the big plays when it matters, and Philadelphia walks off the field wondering, “What just hit us?” A rivalry showdown — but this time, one team looks ready… and the other looks vulnerable.
