One specific moment during the game has left fans fuming. A referee was captured in a prolonged embrace with Philadelphia Eagles safety Kevin Byard. In reality, Byard received a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty during a scuffle, and the referee’s actions were an attempt to de-escalate the situation.
Despite the mixed sentiments among fans regarding this incident, Kevin Byard had an outstanding game, contributing nine tackles.
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts displayed his prowess against the Cowboys, completing 17 of 23 passes for 207 yards and two touchdowns. He further showcased his mobility by rushing for 36 yards and scoring another touchdown.

With this victory, Hurts now boasts a remarkable 25-2 record in his last 27 regular season starts. The 25-year-old quarterback played the game while nursing a lingering knee injury. He suffered a significant hit from Micah Parsons, which sent him limping into the locker room at halftime. Nevertheless, Hurts returned for the second half, displaying his resilience.
Fortunately for Hurts and the Eagles, a bye week is on the horizon, providing the team with the opportunity to rest and recover before their upcoming Monday Night Football clash with the Kansas City Chiefs in two weeks.
