Leave it to the Dallas Cowboys to make Philadelphia Eagles fans, who are already angry after a Week 5 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, even angrier.
Arguably the greatest play in the history of the Eagles -- the "Philly Special," which aided the Birds to their Super Bowl LII victory over the New England Patriots -- got a remix on Sunday... Dallas style.
Comparing it to the Eagles' version in 2018 reveals just how similar the plays are.
It was the first reception of Prescott's career, though he had been targeted once before in 2018.
According to CBS sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson, the Cowboys had been practicing the play frequently. Clearly, all the hard work paid off, though the Cowboys shouldn't gloat too much: they still find themselves in a close game with the 0-4 Giants as I write this article.
As an Eagles fan, let me tell you: that's a gut punch right there. The Eagles and the Cowboys meet for the first time on November 1 for "Sunday Night Football," barring any schedule changes. In 2020, that's obviously not a given.
