00:00I always like to say I am the most unbiased professional handicapper on this network, Joe,

00:05because I love my Philadelphia Eagles.

00:07I love the Sixers.

00:07I love the Flyers.

00:08I love everything that comes out of Philadelphia, including the Philadelphia Phillies, when they

00:12let me down.

00:13Eagles are on the road this weekend, Joe.

00:15Minus threes, minus three and a half in the landscape.

00:18You know, Cowboys look good against the Raiders, but again, the Raiders are bad.

00:20You don't want to take too much away from that.

00:22The Eagles defense has been absolutely incredible, but I look at this number and I say, all right,

00:26the Philadelphia Eagles on offense, on the road.

00:28They're going to be down two offensive linemen this weekend.

00:30Cam Juergen's probably not playing and Lane Johnson, we know, is down at least four to

00:33six weeks.

00:34So they're down two of their best offensive linemen here, which means the right set at

00:38line is going to be kind of weak.

00:40The running game hasn't worked out all that well because they can't block for the running

00:42game.

00:43Now you're down two starters, maybe the best right tackle in football.

00:46The passing game should be okay.

00:48But again, how much time are you going to have back in the pocket of that revamped defensive

00:51line for the Dallas Cowboys?

00:52I am rooting for the Eagles.

00:54The Eagles should win this game.

00:55They're favored to do it.

00:56But I have to tell you, I like the Cowboys getting the points, Joe.

00:58I just do.

01:00Well, Donnie, listen, if you like trends, here's two of them for you.

01:04Yeah.

01:05Yeah.

01:05They've won three games in a row.

01:07The Philadelphia Eagles, right?

01:09Do you know the last time they've won four straight games, Donnie?

01:14Last year?

01:142000 to 2002.

01:19That was the last time they rattled off six.

01:21The Cowboys?

01:21Yeah.

01:22No, your Eagles have not won four straight games since 2000 and 2002 when they rattled

01:29off six straights back in the day.

01:31That's amazing to me.

01:34They were 10 and 1.

01:35They opened up the season at 1.2 years ago.

01:37They had to win four in a row.

01:38Against the Cowboys.

01:39Against the Cowboys.

01:39Oh, oh.

01:40Against the Cowboys.

01:41They have not won four straight against the Cowboys.

01:43Yes.

01:43Against the Cowboys.

01:45They have not done that and dominated the Cowboys.

01:47And I'll tell you the reason why.

01:49Dak Prescott.

01:50That's why.

01:51Because Dak Prescott, for all of his faults, owns the – and I don't know why this is.

01:57He owns the NFC East.

01:59He's 31 and 13 against the NFC East.

02:03And when he's a home dog, Donnie, it's even – his record's even crazy.

02:07He can't beat anybody else, but he has been able to cash tickets against the NFC East.

02:13And I can't figure it out.

02:14I really can't figure out what that reason is.
