Nfl, show on Christmas night: the Cowboys with a super Lamb fold the Eagles. Niners: the Purdy effect continues

A wise man said: the one who makes the least mistakes wins, not the one who does the most. Excessive, perhaps, but rather truthful the saying. And football is no exception: the fewer mistakes you make, the more chances you have of taking it home. And so Minshew’s two interceptions and Sanders’ two turnovers, four turnovers, end up making all the difference in the world between victory and defeat. And if the cause is the team that until yesterday had the best course ever, the knockout is the only consequence.

But great credit goes to those who faced the Eagles: the Dallas Cowboys. Their pyrotechnic offensive potential is not easily matched (understatement) and even the great seasonal defense of the Eagles comes out lousy.

True nor that Phila has presented without the potential Mvp of the year, the qb Jalen Hurts, but the backup Minshew is a mister quarterback and the 355 yards plus personal touch of the evening confirm it. Of course, the two interceptions, moreover in moments when the Eagles seemed to have the inertia of the game, as mentioned, weigh like boulders.

Match without breaks, truly the best show on Christmas night. Throws, runs, interceptions, all very, very intense. Among the Texans a Prescott de luxe, capable of recovering immediately from an interception brought back by the Eagles and showing off a sumptuous performance also in terms of personal runs. The Lamb receiver is fantastic, unstoppable for the Philadelphia secondary.

The Eagles therefore still have to fight to conquer the division in the NFC with mathematical certainty and above all the first seed in the NFC but leave Texas, despite the knockout, with the certainty of a very high competitiveness despite the significant absences. Key injuries permitting, Dallas and Phila could go a long way in the playoffs.

In the other matches to record the joy of the Niners for the umpteenth success of a season that seemed cursed due to the many injuries and instead is proving to be triumphant. Purdy, the kid that no one wanted to take in the draft, continues to amaze and guides Kittle and his companions with a sure hand towards a less easy success than the score on the tough Commanders says.
