A pregame look inside the high level measurements
The Eagles shifted direction part of the way through the season to turn into a running crew, averaging 23.4 surging plays per game in their initial seven games and 39.2 per game subsequently. This isn't only a result of surging when ahead to protect leads, all things considered. While barring the final quarter, the quantity of rush endeavors went up from 16.9 to 28.7 per game. The Eagles have been exceptionally useful in the run game, and rank third in EPA per play when running the ball. A major piece of that spins around quarterback Jalen Hurts as a running danger. Among sprinters with somewhere around 60 surges this year, he positions seventh in expected focuses added per rush. Boston Scott positions second, simply behind Jonathan Taylor. Miles Sanders positions tenth.
It's an assorted and powerful running match-up that is hard to represent, and it remains as opposed to the more conventional running match-up of the Cowboys. While Tony Pollard has been successful, positioned fifteenth among sprinters in EPA per rush, Ezekiel Elliott positions 48th of 73 qualifying players. Generally speaking, Dallas positions 21st in hurrying EPA — likely in light of the fact that it doesn't want to incorporate Dak Prescott as a component of that running match-up, as he just has 48 surging endeavors on the season.
Since Hurts has become more powerful as a passer, this implies that the two are nearer disagreeably than many would have expected toward the start of the period: Dallas positions thirteenth in EPA per play and Philadelphia positions twelfth.
The distinction in this game may be protection, which wouldn't have seemed like an alluring possibility to any fans before the season began. Be that as it may, there, the Cowboys enjoy a benefit. They rank first in EPA per play, while the Eagles safeguard positions eleventh.
