6. With four games left, Eagles now own the edge in the NFC East race

Thursday marked the first meeting between the NFC-East leading Eagles and second-place Cowboys, and with the win the Eagles moved a game ahead of Dallas into sole possession of first place in the division.

There are four regular-season games remaining for each team, including a re-match set for Week 15, this time in Philadelphia where the Eagles are 6-0 on the season.

The Eagles face Seattle, Dallas, Washington and New York to round out their schedule, while the Cowboys get Chicago, Philadelphia, Indianapolis and Washington.
