Dak Prescott threw for 212 yards and three touchdowns, two to CeeDee Lamb, as the Dallas Cowboys handed beat Philadelphia 38-21 to hand the Eagles their fifth straight loss.

Javonte Williams ran for a career-high 155 yards and a touchdown on Monday night (Tuesday AEDT), as the Cowboys (3-4) remained in contention for the NFC East title. The New York Giants lead the division at 4-2-1.

The Eagles (2-5) are spiralling into a disaster of a season with their longest skid since 2016.

Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the rest of the season because of blood clots in his lungs.

Tanner McKee provided little encouragement that he can turn the season around, completing 23 of 35 passes for 211 yards with one touchdown and one interception.

Prescott finished long drives with scores that McKee was unable to match.

With Dallas trailing 21-20 late in the third quarter, Lamb hauled in his second TD on a beautiful 16-yard floater from Prescott in the corner of the end zone. Prescott ran in the two-point conversion for a 28-21 lead.

Brandon Aubrey kicked field goals of 55, 27 and 24 yards. The final kick extended the Cowboys’ lead to 31-21.

Williams capped the scoring and the first 150-yard rushing game by a Dallas player since Ezekiel Elliott in 2018 with a two-yard TD. The Cowboys finished with 204 yards rushing.

McKee had a pass intercepted by linebacker DeMarvion Overshown late in the fourth.

McKee orchestrated the first Eagles touchdown drive in the third quarter this season when they ran almost 10 minutes off the clock, and he hit rookie Makai Lemon for a four-yard touchdown and a 21-20 lead.

However, the Eagles didn’t score again and are running out of time to salvage their season.
