Nonetheless, the 2-time Pro Bowl linebacker doesn’t think this loss is a measuring stick for them. Parsons said if they could secure a couple of victories, they could end up making a good run in the ongoing season.
It’s all about runs. We just gotta click at the right time and make our run.

Dallas certainly needs to go on a winning run as they are currently 3 games behind the Eagles in the NFC East division title race. If the Cowboys don’t go on a winning streak, the Eagles could easily run away with their second consecutive division title.

Furthermore, the star offensive lineman also credited the Eagles rookie offensive guard Tyler Steen for holding his own against the tough defensive front of the Dalla-based football team.
Hats off to Steen man. That’s a tough. . . It’s a hell of a first start, you know. . . I was proud of how he did on a short notice. So, just proud of how we battled.
In the end, the Eagles secured a hard-fought 28-23 victory against their rivals and improved to a league-best 8-1 record. Next, the Eagles have a much-deserved bye in week 10, which they will use to get some rest and prepare for the long remaining season ahead.
