The Cowboys are 1-5 at home this year, but at the moment should be undefeated under Jason Garrett with the costly fumble against the Saints. With the serious injuries to the Cowboys right now; Jason Witten has an ankle injury, their top two cornerbacks Orlando Scandrick [with concussion] and Mike Jenkins [knee injury] are banged up and Marion Barber has a calf injury and on top of that, the most important injury would be the season ending ankle injury to Dez Bryant that will probably hurt the most in the long term.
With the Eagles last game being last Thursday, Philly has had 10 days to prepare for a Dallas team without their most explosive player in Dez and we all know how good Andy Reid is when you give him a full 10 days to not only prepare for a team, but rest his players as well. Asante Samuel and Juqua Parker will both be available and healthy for this game, which will give a serious boost to the Eagles defense.
The Cowboys have won 3 in a row versus Philly and 4 of their last 5, but this time, the Eagles will turn the page. These two teams have yet to play this year and the Eagles are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games in December, there is simply too much explosiveness on this Eagles offense to be stopped by an injured Cowboys defense right now.
In Michael Vick’s career versus Dallas, he has thrown 5 TD/ 1 INT and has a 2:1 TD to INT ratio on the road in his career as well; take Andy Reid and the Eagles with 10 days rest against the banged up Cowboys.
