1. Cowboys
One can only imagine how excited Eagles fans were Sunday night after watching the Cowboys suffer their first loss of 2019 on the road to the Saints, but also they need to realize there’s still plenty of work to be done.
For starters, Philadelphia and Dallas have yet to even play each other, as one can only imagine how intense that first meeting between these two rivals is going to be towards the end of October.
Despite the recent success behind the Giants, chances are by the time December rolls around, the NFC East will most likely come down to the Eagles and Cowboys.
Coming up short on the road in New Orleans was obviously frustrating for Dallas since it trimmed down their lead in the NFC East from two games to one, but there’s no way this team should even feel the slightest bit of concern.
From Dak Prescott having Ezekiel Elliott and Amari Cooper to work with on top of the defense playing at a high level, the Cowboys should feel confident in their chances of being able to make a run at the Super Bowl.

Eagles fans may not want to hear this, but the talent Dallas possesses is simply too good to ignore after one month of action.
