Cowboys are still in fine shape

By Rich Eisen Special to NFL.com

TIDBIT: When it's all said and done, seven weeks in, the Cowboys are still in fine shape, having stifled the league's leading offenses in back-to-back weeks. They're 4-3 with an upcoming home game with Arizona before a nice restful preparatory bye-week prior to the true test of their mettle: at Philadelphia on Monday Night Football. If they win that, they could be 6-3 and headed home with the season tiebreaker over Philly in their back pockets for two straight in Irving -- with Detroit and the Thanksgiving Day contest with Denver. But, from here on out, it would behoove Dallas to button things up in the final throes of a contest. Being aggressive on offense when opportunities present themselves would help. It's a running theme, isn't it?
