With some mismanagement and erosion in discipline from the Eagles, Dallas had a close opportunity to seize a victory on territory. However, their issues hindered their path to seal the deal. This missed opportunity to the gap in the race for NFC East title stings the Cowboys. Ironically, struggles in the red zone resurfacing at a crucial, ultimately sabotaged what could have been a thrilling win.

Amid the game's ups and downs, one standout element stole the spotlight—the strategic utilization of Micah Parsons by Dan Quinn.

Instead of confining Parsons to one side as a defensive end, Quinn strategically deployed him all over the field. This decision proved instrumental in neutralizing the Eagles' offensive tactics, which had put immense pressure on Parsons in previous encounters. Last year, the Eagles targeted him directly, running towards him and employing double teams to disrupt his pass rushes.

Yesterday afternoon, the tides turned as Parsons emerged as a force to be reckoned with. Among all players in the game, he boasted the highest pressure rate, relentlessly attacking Jalen Hurts and capturing 1.5 sacks.

Clearly, Quinn has discovered the optimal way to deploy his star player against Hurts' Eagles offense. The impending rematch in a month promises to be an exhilarating spectacle, as we eagerly anticipate how Parsons will continue to dominate the field.
