It wasn’t bad enough for the Dallas Cowboys that they lost 17-9 to the Philadelphia Eagles, they are currently stuck in Philadelphia due to their charter flight being “not viable” to fly home, according to ProFootballTalk. It was later reported by NFL Network’s Jane Slater that the plane had “mechanical issues” and the team is stuck in Philly until another plane shows up.
Don’t get me wrong, Philadelphia is a lovely city but I’m sure the Cowboys want to go home as soon as possible after the game they had. It has also led to many jokes at the Cowboys’ expense given that this plane fiasco is an apt metaphor for how the Cowboys have played.

They are afraid if the plane needs a few more yards in desperation , the , the Cowboys won’t make it

The plane needs to improve in all three phases.
