Philadelphia Eagles 21-24 Dallas Cowboys Brandon Aubrey kicked a 42-yard field goal as time expired after Dak Prescott rallied Dallas from a 21-point deficit and the Cowboys beat the Philadelphia Eagles in a mistake-filled thriller.
The Cowboys (5-5-1) converted on their third tiebreaking chance of the fourth quarter to extend Prescott’s home winning streak against NFC East opponents to 19. It was the Cowboys’ first game at AT&T Stadium since the death of defensive end Marshawn Kneeland.
The Eagles (8-3) are still in good shape to be the first repeat winners in the NFC East since they won four in a row from 2001-04, but the offense reverted to the form that has frustrated AJ Brown after the star receiver had a big hand in the 21-0 lead early in the second quarter. Philadelphia lost with a lead of at least 21 points for the first time since 1999, when Arizona beat the Eagles 25-24. It was the first win for Dallas when trailing by three touchdowns since the Cowboys beat the Rams 34-31 in 2014.

Cleveland Browns 24–10 Las Vegas Raiders In his first career NFL start, highly publicized rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders did just enough to push the Cleveland Browns (3-8) to their first road win of the season with a victory over the Las Vegas Raiders (2-9).

The 23-year-old threw his first career touchdown pass with 8:18 remaining in the fourth quarter, connecting with running back Dylan Sampson on a screen pass that Sampson promptly ran 66 yards into the end zone.
