Eagles Twitter Blasts Team for Turnovers in Jalen Hurts’ Absence in Loss to Cowboys
The Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Dallas Cowboys 40-34 on Saturday at AT&T Stadium, dropping to 13-2 on the year and missing out on securing the No. 1 spot in the NFC. Topic: (Eagles Twitter Blasts)
The Eagles, lead by Gardner Minshew, had a very good chance to win the game, but Minshew committed four turnovers, including two interceptions, which led to Philadelphia’s second loss of the season.
In the defeat, Minshew completed 24-of-40 throws for 355 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. Both he and running back Miles Sanders fumbled once.
NFL Twitter criticized the Eagles after the game for their streak of errors, three of which occurred in the second half:
Two fumbles by the Eagles RB for absolutely no reason lost them this game. Oh well. Next week win and clinch, looking forward to having to Jalen coming back.

Turnovers did the #Eagles in. Quez has to fight harder on the two picks, failed exchange to Boston looked more on the RB from TV, and Miles fumble was bad

Eagles had no business losing this game….until they decided to lose game not protecting the rock.

Can’t turn the ball over that much and expect to win. Eagles are the better team, but way too sloppy without Hurts. Sanders ball security & Lane’s injury status are main takeaways

A lot of dumb mistakes in a game the Eagles should’ve won with a backup QB

Like big picture, the eagles went to the wire on the road with a good team w it’s back up QB. Nothing to lose your sh*t over.
What makes it annoying is the fact that the eagles absolutely gave that game away lol

Whatever. No reason it should’ve been that close with 4 turnovers. If they meet in the playoffs Dallas will lose by triple digits at the Linc with Hurts. Can’t wait.
Now the Eagles clinch the NFC and a Top 10 pick next week at home vs the Saints. Christmas not ruined. I think.

Cowboys get 20 points off 4 Eagles turnovers. Defense holds them to a field goal again. https://t.co/eB1TDtpkRp

If Jalen Hurts plays against the New Orleans Saints next weekend, the Eagles still stand a very good chance of securing the top spot.
Due to a shoulder ailment, Hurts was unable to play on Saturday. Prior to the game, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reported that if the Eagles lose to the Cowboys this week, the signal-caller will want to play against the Saints. Eagles Twitter Blasts
