Eagles-Cowboys: Did you notice?

DID YOU

NOTICE?

* Before calling tails for the

opening coin toss, punter Donnie Jones said, "Happy Thanksgiving, America."

* The Eagles scored 14 points in the first quarter, despite having the ball for only 5 minutes, 6 seconds.

* The large number of bootlegs the Eagles ran with Mark Sanchez. He had five runs for 28 yards, the second-highest rushing total of his career.

* Bradley Fletcher had excellent coverage on Dez Bryant on his 38-yard catch late in the first quarter. It was just a perfect throw by Tony Romo and a terrific catch by Bryant. The oft-maligned Fletcher had a solid game.

* Tight end James Casey lined up wide right on LeSean McCoy's 36-yard run to the right on the

Eagles' first possession.

* The excellent downfield blocking by Riley Cooper on Jeremy

Maclin's 59-yard catch and run on the Eagles' third scoring drive

early in the second quarter.

* Cowboys' Barry Church running into his own punt returner, Dwayne Harris, in the second quarter, allowing the ball to bounce all the way to the 4-yard line.

* The positive results the Eagles got from their dime package. They even used it on a couple of third-and-3 situations.

* LeSean McCoy and Darren Sproles were on the field together four times in the first half.

* Seven of the Eagles' 13 red-zone plays in the first half were run plays.

* In a few of their "12" personnel packages, the Eagles lined up slot receiver Jordan Matthews on the wing and tight end Zach Ertz in the slot.

* Sanchez's third-and-goal pass to Riley Cooper in the end zone late in the second quarter was supposed to be a back-shoulder fade. But it was a poorly thrown ball, one of the few by Sanchez all day.

* Sanchez was forced to call a

timeout with 11 minutes left in the fourth quarter when there was some confusion between him and Cooper. They got into a brief argument.

* Mychal Kendricks slicing through the line and nailing DeMarco Murray for a 6-yard loss on fourth-and-one with 9 1/2 minutes left in the game.
