Quarterback Dak Prescott passed for one touchdown, rushed for another and the host Dallas Cowboys handily defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 37-10 on Sunday night.
Prescott was 21 of 27 for 239 yards as the Cowboys snapped a three-game losing streak heading into the team's bye next week.
Ezekiel Elliott also rushed for a score and Dallas improved to 4-3. Elliott ran 22 times for 111 yards.
The Eagles were hampered by four turnovers, including two fumbles and an interception by quarterback Carson Wentz.
Wentz was 16 of 26 for 191 yards and the Eagles dropped their second in a row to fall to 3-4.
In a wild first half, the Cowboys quickly took a 14-0 lead as they capitalized on a pair of Eagles fumbles.
Following the first fumble by Dallas Goedert, the Cowboys struck when Tavon Austin received a pitch from Prescott and ran 20 yards for a touchdown and a 7-0 lead.
On Philadelphia's next possession, Wentz had the ball stripped by DeMarcus Lawrence. Then with 8:56 left in the first quarter, Elliott plunged in from the 1 for a 14-point lead.
The Eagles did respond as Goedert made up for his early turnover and hauled in a 28-yard pass from Wentz to close within 14-7.
But the Cowboys again went ahead by two touchdowns when Prescott rolled out and found a wide open Blake Jarwin for a 21-7 advantage with 6:40 remaining in the second quarter.
Dallas tacked on six more points as Brett Maher drilled field goals from 26 and 63 yards for a 27-7 lead at halftime. Maher's 63-yarder was one yard shy of tying an NFL record as it sailed through as time expired in the first half.
Philadelphia put together an impressive third-quarter drive that eventually stalled. Jake Elliott's 38-yard field goal with 4:59 left closed the gap to 27-10.
Maher's third field goal, from 29 yards, extended Dallas' lead to 30-10 early in the fourth. Prescott's 8-yard scamper then gave the Cowboys the final margin of 37-10 with 9:33 remaining.
