The Dallas Cowboys went into Lincoln Financial Field on Monday night and left with their biggest win of the season. Javonte Williams ran for a career-high 155 yards and Dak Prescott threw three touchdown passes as Dallas beat the Philadelphia Eagles 38-21.

The win moved the Cowboys to 3-4 and into second place in the NFC East behind the New York Giants, who are 4-2-1. Dallas is also the only team in the division with two division wins. Philadelphia fell to 2-5 and has lost five straight games for the first time since 2016.

Prescott said the timing made it even sweeter. "Come out, get a division win on the road in a hostile environment right before we get to go home for a couple of weeks, I think it was massive," he said.

Williams sets the tone

Williams carried the offense on the ground. He became the first Cowboys player with a 150-yard rushing game since Ezekiel Elliott in 2018. He also scored on a 2-yard run for his eighth rushing touchdown of the season, which ties him for the NFL lead.

Dallas finished with 204 rushing yards and 416 total yards. The Cowboys did not turn the ball over once.

"Javonte, man, the power, the acceleration, it was there tonight. He looked great," coach Brian Schottenheimer said.

Prescott and Lamb take over late

Prescott was efficient more than flashy. He completed 15 of 27 passes for 212 yards. Two of his touchdowns went to CeeDee Lamb, including a 16-yard go-ahead score late in the third quarter. Prescott then ran in the two-point conversion himself to make it 28-21.

His other touchdown pass was a 21-yarder to George Pickens, who dragged his toes in the end zone with Andrew Mukuba in coverage. Brandon Aubrey added field goals of 55, 27 and 24 yards.

Overshown seals it

The Eagles had grabbed a 21-20 lead in the third quarter when Tanner McKee hit rookie Makai Lemon for a 4-yard touchdown. That was as close as they got the rest of the way.

Linebacker DeMarvion Overshown, playing for the first time since hurting his hamstring in Week 1, picked off McKee in the fourth quarter to put the game away. "Our division, we're in it," Overshown said afterward.

McKee finished 23 of 35 for 211 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He is starting with Jalen Hurts expected to miss the rest of the season after blood clots were found in his lungs. Receiver DeVonta Smith also sat out.

Barkley returns

There was one bright spot for Philadelphia. Saquon Barkley came back from his hamstring injury and ran 7 times for 62 yards with an 8-yard touchdown. He touched the ball on all 9 of his snaps and also dealt with a back issue. Barkley said his hamstring "came out great."

Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie was also inducted into the team's Hall of Fame at halftime.

What's next

The Cowboys head home to host the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. The Eagles visit the Washington Commanders on Sunday night as they try to snap their skid.
