Esch in the first round this year and he showed off some of what grabbed their attention against Philadelphia last Sunday night.Vander Esch got the start against the Eagles because Sean Lee is sidelined by a hamstring injury and he made sure the Cowboys didn’t miss their longtime defensive leader all that much. The rookie had the first interception of his career and recorded 13 tackles to help Dallas to a 27-20 victory over their NFC East rivals.One of Vander Esch’s tackles came on a third-and-2 pass to Eagles running back Corey Clement on the first play after the two minute warning in the fourth quarter. The Eagles were on the Dallas 30-yard-line and driving to try to tie the game [url=https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Tyron-Smith-Jersey]Tyron Smith Jersey[/url] , but Vander Esch dumped Clement for a five-yard loss that helped force a turnover on downs.The start was the fourth that Vander Esch has made this season. He’s played on 69 percent of the snaps overall and has 76 tackles this season. One of the greatest games we’ve ever seen as Dallas Cowboys fans took place on October 6th, 2013 when the Denver Broncos strolled into Arlington.Tony Romo out-dueled Peyton Manning and eclipsed 500 passing yards in the process. Unfortunately for all of us, it was a loss because the Cowboys defense couldn’t do much against one of the game’s most prolific passers.Things are very different these days as the Cowboys have a defense that wins them games. We haven’t exactly seen a 500-yard game any time in recent memory [url=https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Jason-Witten-Jersey]Jason Witten Color Rush Jersey[/url] , but Dak Prescott did throw for 455 during the team’s victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. It was impressive.Prescott’s 455 performance tied Troy Aikman for the third-most in a game by a Dallas Cowboys quarterback, but it did find a way to set a record of its own. These were the most yards ever thrown for by a Dallas Cowboys quarterback during a victory.As documented, Romo and the Cowboys lost to Denver. Troy Aikman’s team lost to the Vikings in 1998 when he threw for four and a half c-notes. The second-place performance was ol’ Dandy Don Meredith who chunked his way to 460 in 1963 against the San Francisco 49ers. Of the four performances in question it was only Dak Prescott’s that ended in a win. _________________ http://www.greenbaypackersteamonline.com/ |
