There's not a lot to separate the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys.
On Monday, the NFC East foes will square off with identical 1-1 records and top spot in the division on the line. The Eagles sit first due to tiebreakers, but the Cowboys are the ones heading into the contest with momentum after Dallas downed the LA Chargers in Week 2.
The Cowboys are much improved from last year, thanks in large part to the involvement of quarterback Dak Prescott, but also due to an improved defence that is no longer among the worst in the league.
That defensive unit will look to limit a Philadelphia team that only managed to put up 11 points in a loss last week against the San Francisco 49ers, after racking up 32 points in a dominant Week 1 victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
“This defence probably should be getting a lot more credit,” former Dallas star Troy Aikman said on Dallas radio last week, via the London Free Press.
It's still early, though. While the Cowboys have improved defensively in the first two games of the season, Monday's game could go a long way into solidifying their reputation as a team that's hard to score against.
