Eagles’ PFF grades: Best and worst performers from 40-34 loss to the Cowboys
The Eagles moved to 13-2 on the season after a Christmas Eve loss to the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium.
The Birds can still clinch the No. 1 seed – Philadelphia needs to win just one of the final two games to clinch the NFC East, the No. 1 seed, the first-round bye, and home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs.
The Eagles are battered and a bit flustered after an ugly performance that was buoyed by four turnovers on offense, and an inability to get off the field on third downs as a defense.
Gardner Minshew was 24-40 for 355 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 2 interceptions in place of an injured Jalen Hurts.
Minshew also had one rushing touchdown on the afternoon but was credited with one lost fumble as well.
With the team pivoting towards Week 17, here are the best and worst performers according to PFF.
