Monday Night Football delivered a clear winner as the Dallas Cowboys traveled to Philadelphia and dominated the Eagles 38-21. Despite playing on the road, Dallas controlled the game throughout, building a comfortable lead that the Eagles could never fully challenge. The final margin made it a statement performance for the Cowboys, who looked sharp on both sides of the ball and left no doubt about the outcome by the time the final whistle sounded.
The XO Sports model came away with a correct call on this one, picking Dallas as the away side to win. The predicted score of Cowboys 22, Eagles 21 pointed toward a close contest, so the model nailed the direction but underestimated just how dominant Dallas would be in a game that ended up being far less competitive than anticipated. Still, a correct pick is a correct pick, and the model finishes the Monday slate 1-0 with a solid read on the Cowboys coming into a tough road environment and getting the job done.
