EAGLES at COWBOYS

8:30 p.m., Eagles by 4, 48½

-

HANK’S HONEYS: The Cowboys missed Tyron Smith more than they did Ezekiel Elliott against the Falcons. If Smith can’t go — and he’s doubtful — Dak Prescott is going to be even more of a piñata against the Eagles’ front seven. The Boys will be missing LB Sean Lee, who is just as big a difference-maker on defense, especially against an Eagles offense that can do so many things. The Eagles suddenly have versatilit­y and weapons everywhere, including the backfield, and Carson Wentz has been the real deal running the whole show. Coming off a bye, they’ll be well-rested and hungry. This is a must-win game for the Cowboys and they responded well in a similar situation against the Chiefs. Still, the unflappabl­e Birds should be primed to kick the hated Cowboys down into the curb.

IF I WERE A BETTING MAN: Eagles and the over.
