KEY GAME INFORMATION
PHILADELPHIA: Head coach Chip Kelly may not have brought his Oregon playbook to the NFL, but what he's running is fairly close. The tempo and overall spread principles are what make this the league's best rushing attack, as well as LeSean McCoy's ability to exploit cutback lanes when defenses flow too fast to the perimeter. McCoy might have his workload lightened a little bit, but he's still going to get an enormous number of carries. Unlike during the Andy Reid years, the Eagles are run-heavy in the red zone under Kelly. McCoy takes most touches inside the 20, often taking advantage of exhausted defenses at the end of drives. All-purpose back Darren Sproles could end up being used as a runner a bit more often than he was in New Orleans, while Chris Polk is more of a traditional back-up.
The Eagles use a lot of crossing routes that become high-percentage due to the threat of the running game, plus quarterback Nick Foles holds onto the ball for a long, long time. They'll use a lot of two-tight end looks, most often targeting either Jeremy Maclin or tight end Zach Ertz over the middle. Foles has good chemistry with No. 2 receiver Riley Cooper, who often takes advantage of single coverage against smaller defensive backs with a lot of comeback routes. Rookie Jordan Matthews will play inside in three-receiver sets. They also love the screen game, with McCoy and Sproles.
Defensive coordinator Billy Davis was brought in before 2013 to improve the team's pathetic 13 takeaways, and he did just that with 31 forced turnovers, which tied for third in the NFL. FS Malcolm Jenkins was the only significant free-agent pickup, but first-round draft choice DE Marcus Smith should be able to contribute right away.
DALLAS: Offensive line coach Bill Callahan is expected to relinquish play-calling duties to new offensive coordinator Scott Linehan in order to focus on improving the Cowboys' anemic rushing attack. They end up abandoning the run early in many games, as the zone-blocking scheme that Callahan implemented has yet to take hold. DeMarco Murray will take a headlining role again in this backfield, especially in the red zone, and he'll keep that role until his next injury. Joseph Randle and Lance Dunbar will fight for scraps.
Linehan ran a pass-happy offense in Detroit, similar to what the Cowboys have run. He's an Air Coryell disciple with a system that uses a lot of top-down reads, looking to take advantage of the deep ball. Dez Bryant is the obvious No. 1 receiver in this offense, and Linehan will likely move him around more than Dallas has done in the past. Tight end Jason Witten provides another chess piece type of weapon to wreak some havoc. Terrance Williams steps in as the No. 2 and will be used primarily as a deep threat. The Cowboys will use two tight ends as often as they go three-wide, meaning third wideout Cole Beasley and second TE Gavin Escobar will essentially split playing time. Dallas was one of the league's most pass-heavy red zone teams last year, a trend that's likely to continue this season. Bryant is the top target near the goal line, with Witten a close second.
Dallas DL coach Rod Marinelli will take over defensive coordinator duties in 2014, hoping to generate more turnovers like he did with the Bears (44 TO in 2012). But the Cowboys still give up tons of yards and will have much fewer sacks after losing both DE DeMarcus Ware (117 career sacks) and DT Jason Hatcher (11 sacks in 2013).

*Eagles-Cowboys Preview* ========================

By TAYLOR BECHTOLD STATS Writer

With sole possession of first place in the NFC East on the line, the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys haven't had much time to prepare for a Thanksgiving showdown.

In the first of two meetings across 18 days, the Eagles look to remain unbeaten in the division and improve to 6-0 on the holiday when they try to deny the Cowboys a third consecutive victory.

"It's going to be a great game," Philadelphia defensive end Fletcher Cox said of the matchup between 8-3 teams. "I'm really excited, man. I'm looking forward to it. We're ready to roll. We're ready for Thursday."

Although the rivals enter the contest in a first-place tie, the Eagles have a slight advantage with a 2-0 mark in the East, while Dallas is 2-1 with the loss coming 20-17 at home against Washington on Oct. 27.

Philadelphia recovered from a blowout loss at Green Bay in Sunday's 43-24 home win over Tennessee. Mark Sanchez had a team record-tying third straight 300-yard passing day, while LeSean McCoy ran for 130 yards and a touchdown.

"We had to stay focused on Tennessee all week," linebacker Trent Cole said. "That was the next game. And we were coming off a bad game. So there was no reason to think about Dallas. But now we can. Now, it's all about Dallas. If you can't get excited for this game, you shouldn't be playing football."

The Eagles have dropped three of their last four on the road, but they've won three of four at Dallas following a 24-22 victory last season that clinched the NFC East title in Week 17. Tony Romo did not play in that contest two days after undergoing back surgery, and Brandon Boykin picked off a Kyle Orton pass with 1:49 remaining to seal the win.

Romo now appears to be playing at his best, throwing for seven touchdowns and no interceptions in his last two games. He completed 18 of 26 passes for 275 yards and four scores - including the winner to Dez Bryant with 1:01 left - in a 31-28 comeback road win over the New York Giants on Sunday night.

"Everybody knows that we won, but when we land in Dallas, that game no longer matters," said Bryant, who had seven catches for 86 yards with 2 TDs.

After losing their last two at AT&T Stadium, the Cowboys have answered with back-to-back road wins - though they didn't exactly face a hostile crowd while beating Jacksonville in London on Nov. 9. They haven't dropped three straight at home since losing four straight to open the 2010 season.

Jason Witten, who has a touchdown grab in his last two games, has a combined 18 catches for 243 yards in his last two at home versus Philadelphia. He also has more catches than anyone on Thanksgiving as he gets ready for his 12th game on the holiday with the Cowboys, who are 29-16-1 all-time in those contests.

"I think the excitement and adrenaline can override how tired you are," Witten said about playing 90 hours after Sunday's game ended. "It's a great opportunity for us. You can't worry about anything else. Just get through it and move forward."

League rushing leader DeMarco Murray posted his tenth 100-yard game with 121 on 24 carries against the Giants, while Bryant is tied for the most touchdown receptions since Week 8 with six.

The Eagles have been vulnerable through the air, ranking 30th with 266.3 yards allowed per game. They limited Tennessee to 52 rushing yards Sunday after allowing an average of 110.0 over their previous three games.

"We want to win our division," Philadelphia cornerback Cary Williams said. "They are a great opponent. They have a great team and are playing at a high level right now."

Romo has thrown for at least 300 yards with eight touchdowns and two picks while winning each of the last three home meetings he's finished. He was knocked out with a right hand injury in the opening series of a loss to the Eagles in 2011.

Dallas will have to account for linebacker Connor Barwin, who is tied for second in the NFL with a career-high 12 1/2 sacks after recording 2 1/2 of the team's five against the Titans.

The Cowboys have allowed 160 rushing yards in the last two, but they've had their own issues against the pass, allowing an average of 278.3 yards over their last four games.

Sanchez has thrown for an average of 328.3 yards with five touchdowns since taking over for injured starter Nick Foles, but he's also thrown four picks in his last two games. Dallas has pulled down an interception in each of its past four.

Jordan Matthews has been Sanchez's top target with 18 catches for 322 yards and three scores in his last three games.

"We've got a pretty good understanding of what (the Cowboys) are right now," Eagles coach Chip Kelly said. "They play extremely hard on the defensive side; and then, obviously, offensively they are running the ball at a very, very high rate."

Dallas safety Jeff Heath and defensive tackle Jack Crawford each have a broken thumb that will require surgery, though they're still hoping to play. Receiver Terrance Williams has a broken index finger but is likely to go with the aid of a splint.

Philadelphia linebacker Emmanuel Acho may be sidelined due to a groin injury.

The teams will meet again at Lincoln Financial Field on Dec. 4.
