Tony Romo threw touchdown passes to Dez Bryant and Felix Jones to lead the Dallas Cowboys to a 38-23 rout of the Eagles.

Eagles quarterback Michael Vick had to leave the game in the second quarter with a concussion after taking several hard hits from Cowboys defenders.  Rookie Nick Foles came in for his first NFL snaps and completed 22 passes for 219 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.

The game was tied at 17 headed into the fourth quarter before the Cowboys began to click on all cylinders.

It began when Dwyane Harris returned a punt return 78-yards for a touchdown for the Cowboys (4-5).  It was their first return touchdown of any kind this season.

A few plays later, cornerback Brandon Carr intercepted Foles and returned it 47 yards for a touchdown to all but ice the game for the Cowboys.

Dez Bryant had three catches for 87 yards and a score for the Cowboys.

The Eagles (3-6) have lost five straight under head coach Andy Reid for the first time in his tenure with the team.
