Dallas Beatdown

Michael Vick led the Eagles to Vick-tory.
Victory tastes sweet. But it tastes even sweeter when it's against the Cowboys. It was pure domination for the Eagles, winning 34-7. The only falter was a big touchdown pass in the fourth quarter from Romo to Robinson.

LeSean McCoy led the way with 185 rushing yards on 30 attempts. That's good for 6.2 yards per carry. Along with that, he had 2 rushing touchdowns. A very impressive feat considering that Dallas was going into this game as the number one rushing defense in the league. Dallas hadn't allowed a hundred-yard rusher until they faced McCoy.


Michael Vick was sharp as well. He was 21/28 with 279 yards and 2 touchdowns. His quarterback rating was 129.9, in large part due to the fact that he didn't throw an interception. Vick's biggest target of the night was Brent Celek, hooking up with him 7 times for 94 yards and a score.

Some Game Notes:
The Eagles had 31 first downs in the game. That's eight shy of tying the record.
The Eagles had ZERO turnovers in the game, something they've needed to improve on. Desperately.
We were 7-12 on third down conversions, and 1-1 on fourth downs.
The Eagles also dominated possession time 42:09-17:51.

Overall great win, but we must have a short memory in order to keep winning.
