Dud: Penalties

You can sit here and talk about individual players all day, but at the end of a game like this, you have to look at some hidden yardage as a reason why your team lost a game, or in this case, almost gave it away.

Philadelphia pinned Dallas inside the 20 at the end of the game with less than 50 seconds on the clock, but penalties gave the Cowboys a clear path all the way down the field into easy scoring range.

Pass interference, roughing the passer, encroachment -- the Eagles couldn't get out of their own way on the final drive of the game. Luckily for them, Dallas wasn't able to finish the job.

Philadelphia had 10 penalties for 98 yards in this game. Thankfully, Dallas had 10 penalties as well.
