Eagles leading Cowboys 30-10 after three quarters

Arlington, Tex. - LeSean McCoy rushed for a 38 yard touchdown and Tony Romo threw an interception as the Eagles lead the Cowboys 30-10 after three quarters Thursday.

Philadelphia drove 80 yards in 5 plays, aided by an 8 yard rush from Mark Sanchez and a 7 yard dash from McCoy before breaking through a gaping hole up the middle and cutting left through an empty secondary to paydirt for the 20-point lead.

McCoy rushed 20 times for 141 yards on the game thus far, securing his 4th 100 yard game this year and 4th-career 1,000 yard season.

Dallas took the succeeding possession 23 yards in 9 plays, including a 14 yard rush from Lance Dunbar and a 9 yarder from DeMarco Murray. Romo was sacked twice on the charge, by Brandon Graham and then Fletcher Cox.

Dez Bryant converted a 3rd-and-8 with an 11 yard reception, but Romo's 3rd-and-15 pass was intercepted by Cary Williams, the corner's 2nd pick this season, at the Eagles 26.

Romo finished the quarter 11-of-17 for 107 yards passing and an interception. He has been sacked 4 times.

LeSean McCoy fumbled after tripping over Lane Johnson to the Eagles 13 on Philadelphia's first drive, recovered by Jeremy Mincey for Dallas.

But the Eagles stiffened defensively, a trend that featured throughout the third quarter, and Dallas could do little with the football. 

DeMarco Murray rushed to the Eagles 4, but on the resulting 2nd-and-1 was brought down for a 1 yard loss by Fletcher Cox and Bennie Logan. 

Tony Romo was brought down for a 5 yard loss on 3rd-and-2 when Casey Matthews snaked through the protection and Dan Bailey kicked from 28 yards to bring the Cowboys within 23-10.

Dallas (8-3) stalled on their first drive of the third quarter after DeMarco Murray rushed for 9 and 7 yards. Jason Witten converted a 2nd-and-1 for an 8 yard reception, but after Murray took the to sideline, Lance Dunbar was stuffed for a yard on 3rd-and-3 when Fletcher Cox and Malcolm Jenkins overtook the Cowboys' vaunted front.

Philadelphia took a quick 14-0 lead over Dallas after two drives that lasted five minutes. Mark Sanchez rushed for a 1 yard score and his 27 yard toss to Jordan Matthews gave the visitors the two-touchdown advantage.

DeMarco Murray brought the Cowboys within 7 on a 1 yard rush to end a 67 yard drive.
