The Philadelphia Eagles want to run. The Dallas Cowboys, also, want to run. Everyone wants their rushing game to be better and both teams will face big-time tests to those same rushing games in week two.
DeMarco Murray scored two touchdowns in his Eagles debut last week but the former Cowboy was far from his 2014 self when it came to overall stats. Murray finished the game with nine yards on the ground after recording negative yardage in the opening 30 minutes. Add into the mix that Murray only ran the ball eight times and his total carries were the fewest of his last 23 games. After the game, coach Chip Kelly said there was no specific intent to make sure Murray was on the field in key moments. “Whoever is in the game at that point in time,” Kelly said. “We don’t have a specific back that runs specific plays.”
Meanwhile, on the Dallas side, the Cowboys are still looking for someone, anyone, to replace Murray. Joseph Randle and Darren McFadden split rushing duties in week one, combining for 80 yards on 22 carries. Those aren’t Murray numbers and they also won’t cut it now that Dallas will be without Dez Bryant for at least eight weeks. This backfield needs to perform and they need to start running sooner rather than later.
Kickoff for the divisional rivalry is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET and will be broadcast nationally on FOX. Joe Buck and Troy Aikman will be on the call for the matchup.
