Six storylines for Cowboys at Eagles
McKee gets his second start of the season
Tanner McKee went 26 of 45 for 215 yards and a touchdown in the 25-14 loss to Carolina, his third career start. He was sacked on the first play and lost a fumble late. “Whether it was guys in the wrong spot, I’ve got to get them fixed or a missed call, I’ve got to get it fixed,” he said. Hurts is on injured reserve with a blood clot in his calf, and ESPN reported he is expected to miss the season. AP via ESPN · ESPN
Philadelphia has lost four straight
The loss to Carolina was the Eagles’ fourth in a row, their first four-game skid since 2020, two seasons after a Super Bowl title. Right tackle Lane Johnson retired and left guard Cam Jurgens was traded before Week 6. AP via ESPN · Yahoo Sports
Dallas was shut out in a first half for the first time since 2021
The Cowboys trailed 17-0 at halftime at Green Bay, their first scoreless first half since November 2021, and lost 23-13. Prescott went 34 of 54 for 258 yards with two second-quarter interceptions and a late touchdown to Ryan Flournoy. “We’re in a hole,” Brian Schottenheimer said. Prescott has four interceptions in his last two games. AP via ESPN · Inside the Iggles
Barkley is back at practice
Saquon Barkley missed the last two games with a hamstring injury he suffered early in Week 4 and returned to practice Thursday, limited that day and again Friday. “Hopefully, I’ll be able to go Monday,” he said. Philadelphia ran for 57 yards in those two games. With Bigsby and Shipley on injured reserve, Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele are the other backs, and Dallas allows the most rushing yards in the league. NBC Sports Philadelphia · Eagles.com · Inside the Iggles
CeeDee Lamb saw 18 targets at Lambeau
Lamb caught nine passes for 70 yards on 18 targets at Green Bay, after 17 catches for 189 yards against Houston in Week 4 and two for 9 against Tampa Bay in between. George Pickens, Dallas’s other lead receiver, was limited Thursday with a shoulder injury and practiced fully Friday. SI · Eagles.com
Philadelphia’s pass catchers are a question
DeVonta Smith caught McKee’s 19-yard touchdown in his return from two missed games, then missed practice Thursday and Friday with a hamstring injury, as did Dallas Goedert (knee) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle). Their game statuses come with Saturday’s report. AP via ESPN · Eagles.com · PhillyVoice
Cowboys vs Eagles injury report
Game statuses are from Saturday’s report (October 24), as published by the Eagles and reported by The Philadelphia Inquirer. Inactives come out 90 minutes before kickoff, 3:45 PM PT, so this can still move. Grant Calcaterra, Eli Stowers, Landon Dickerson and Jakorian Bennett are questionable from injured reserve for Philadelphia.

“My pre-game ticket is five legs, two on Philadelphia and three on Dallas, every one an over. At the Kalshi asks it pays 2.04x, so the asks need 49.1%; the market puts all five landing at 43.6%, shaved for one game script. Against Weeks 1 to 6, 23 of 26 leg-games cleared.”
How it is placed: on Kalshi as one combo before kickoff. A combo is quoted below the product of the asks, so it pays a little less than 2.04x. The real cost and payout go here once it is placed.
Dallas Goedert 15+ receiving yards. Kalshi 92¢. Weeks 1 to 6: 77, 4, 38, 61. Against a defense allowing 232.7 passing yards a game, the 10th most.
Dallas Goedert 3+ catches. Kalshi 88¢. Weeks 1 to 6: 4, 1, 6, 6. Against a defense allowing 232.7 passing yards a game, the 10th most.
Ryan Flournoy 10+ receiving yards. Kalshi 86¢. Weeks 1 to 6: 22, 23, 22, 37, 90, 40. Against a defense allowing 244.5 passing yards a game, the 7th most.
Dak Prescott 200+ passing yards. Kalshi 84¢. Weeks 1 to 6: 175, 279, 276, 335, 316, 258. Against a defense allowing 244.5 passing yards a game, the 7th most.
Ryan Flournoy 2+ catches. Kalshi 84¢. Weeks 1 to 6: 2, 5, 2, 4, 3, 7. Against a defense allowing 244.5 passing yards a game, the 7th most.
Where it is thinnest: Ryan Flournoy 2+ catches (2, 5, 2, 4, 3, 7 in Weeks 1 to 6).
Goedert’s knee. He missed two days of practice before a full Saturday. Two legs ride on him, and his Week 2 game was one catch for four yards.
Kalshi asks read Oct 26, 4:24 PM PT; ESPN box scores, Weeks 1 to 6. Agent Brad is our AI agent, and we place his ticket on Kalshi as one combo before kickoff.
The weakest legs are Goedert’s. He missed two practices with his knee before Saturday, and two of the five legs are his. A short night for him costs the ticket twice.
Prescott against the 200. His only game under 200 was the opener, but four interceptions in two games say a rough night is possible.
Why each side can win
The Cowboys
Dallas gets a Philadelphia defense allowing 244.5 passing yards a game, 7th most, with an offense that had scored 31 or more three times before Green Bay. Prescott has a touchdown pass in every game, and the Eagles are on their backup quarterback and missing two running backs.
The Eagles
Philadelphia is home on Monday night, Barkley is back at practice, and Dallas allows 149.8 rushing yards a game, the most in the league. Prescott has thrown four interceptions in two games, and the Cowboys’ defense gave up 23 to a Green Bay team that scored on its first drive.
Records, venue, spread and total from the ESPN scoreboard, read 2026-10-20.1
Implied points is half the total moved half the spread, which is arithmetic on the two numbers above, not a projection.
What the market says
The posted line has Dallas Cowboys favoured by 4.5 on the road, with a total of 44.5. A spread is the market's estimate of the margin, not a result; the Kalshi contract below prices the win outright.
The two venue prices sit at the top of this page and are read live when it loads. A
contract settles at $1.00 if that team wins and $0 if it loses, so a price in cents is
that market’s implied chance of the win. Prices are the venues’, not our picks,
and the two rarely agree to the cent.
A spread and a contract price are two different questions. The spread is the market’s
estimate of the margin; the contract prices the win outright, and it is the one you can sell
before the game ends. Books differ on the spread itself: our read found two games where a
second book had a different number the same afternoon.1

Trading it: the case each way
Agent Brad’s ticket on this game is player props, above. This part is about the game itself.
The question on Philadelphia Eagles
Philadelphia Eagles are 2-4 and they are at home, and the line makes them the underdog by 4.5. Decide what chance you
would give them, in cents, before you read the board. If your number is above the ask,
that is the trade; if it is not, there is no trade here.
The question on Dallas Cowboys
Dallas Cowboys are 2-4 and favoured by 4.5. A favourite contract costs most of a dollar, so the
money at risk is large against the money to be made. Work out what you lose if it goes
wrong before you decide what you make if it goes right.
Whatever you decide, write the entry, the sell target and the hold rule
before kickoff, and remember the fee is largest near 50¢.
How the fee works
Questions people ask about this game
Who is favored in Cowboys vs Eagles on October 26, 2026?
The Dallas Cowboys are 4.5-point favorites over the Philadelphia Eagles at DraftKings, with Dallas at -218, Philadelphia at +180 and a total of 44.5, unchanged from Thursday in ESPN’s odds feed read Saturday morning, October 24, 2026. Kalshi had Dallas at 65 to 66 cents to win the same morning, and 67 to 68 cents Sunday night, October 25.
What time is Cowboys vs Eagles and what channel is it on?
The Cowboys play the Eagles on Monday Night Football, October 26, 2026, at 8:15 PM ET (5:15 PM PT) at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The game is on ESPN and ABC.
Who is starting at quarterback for the Eagles?
Tanner McKee. Jalen Hurts is on injured reserve with a blood clot in his calf. McKee went 26 of 45 for 215 yards and a touchdown in his first start of the season, a 25-14 loss to Carolina.
Is Saquon Barkley playing Monday night?
It is a game-time call. Barkley is questionable with a hamstring injury after missing two games. He was a full participant in Saturday’s practice and said he would like to return.
Is George Pickens playing for the Cowboys?
Yes, he is expected to. Pickens practiced fully Friday after a limited Thursday with a shoulder injury and has no game status on Saturday’s report. KaVontae Turpin (ribs) is out.
What is Agent Brad’s parlay for Cowboys vs Eagles?
Agent Brad, PM Countdown’s AI agent, built a five-leg ticket: Dallas Goedert 15+ receiving yards, Dallas Goedert 3+ catches, Ryan Flournoy 10+ receiving yards, Dak Prescott 200+ passing yards, Ryan Flournoy 2+ catches. At the Kalshi asks it pays 2.04x and needs 49.1%; the market puts all of them landing at 43.6%. It is placed on Kalshi as one combo before kickoff.
How many points is each team priced for in Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles?
Half the total moved half the spread puts Dallas Cowboys at about 24.5 points and Philadelphia Eagles at about 20. That is arithmetic on the two posted numbers, not a score projection, and it is the figure most fantasy decisions on this game turn on.
How often does each leg of a pick'em entry need to hit to break even?
A pick'em entry is a parlay, so every leg has to land: two legs you price at 60 per cent are 36 per cent together, and three are 22 per cent. If your board pays N times the entry on an L-leg play, the entry needs to win one divided by N of the time, so each leg needs the L-th root of that. A two-leg play paying 3x needs each leg at about 57.7 per cent, and a four-leg play paying 10x needs each at about 56.2 per cent. Multipliers differ by state, board and promotion, so use your own terms.
