Cowboys vs. Eagles final score, results: Ezekiel Elliott, Dalton Schultz each find the end zone twice on Monday Night Football

It took just over three minutes for Dallas to get on the scoreboard at home on Monday.

The game wasn’t totally over at that point, but it was certainly an indication of what was to come as the Cowboys steamrolled the Eagles 41-21 and moved to 2-1 and atop the NFC East.

It was a dominant offensive performance by the Cowboys, who had nearly 400 yards of offense and saw Ezekiel Elliott and Dalton Schultz each find the end zone twice.

For as good as the Cowboys were offensively, they were helped by self-inflicted blows on the part of the Eagles, who were penalized 13 times for 86 yards. Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts also threw two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown.

Philadelphia’s offense was stagnant even without the penalties, as they didn’t reach the red zone until roughly the 8:00 mark in the third quarter, totaled just 64 rushing yards and had just 12 first downs the entire game.

It was also the first time the Cowboys scored 40-plus points on a divisional opponent since Week 17 in 2014.

The Cowboys will look to extend their division lead as they host the Panthers while the Eagles will look to get back to .500 against the Chiefs.
