Eagles 33, Cowboys 10: Mark Sanchez threw a touchdown pass and LeSean McCoy ran for another as Philadelphia dominated host Dallas to move into sole possession of first place in the NFC East.

Sanchez threw for 202 of his 217 yards in the first half as the Eagles (9-3) took control early and were barely threatened. McCoy ran for 159 yards and Jeremy Maclin totaled 108 receiving yards for Philadelphia, which took a one-game lead over the Cowboys on the division.

DeMarco Murray ran for 73 yards and a touchdown as Dallas (8-4) dropped to 3-4 at home. Tony Romo went 18-of-29 for 199 yards and two interceptions for the Cowboys.

Sanchez guided the Eagles 80 yards on the opening drive before diving over right tackle for a 2-yard score. Sanchez took to the air on the next drive and went 5-of-6, capping the drive with 27-yard TD pass to rookie Jordan Matthews, and Philadelphia tacked on three field goals by Cody Parkey in the second quarter to take a 23-7 lead into the half.

McCoy’s fumble left Dallas in the red zone early in the third but it could only manage a field goal, and McCoy made up for the mistake on the next drive with a 38-yard TD run. Romo was intercepted in Eagles territory on the next drive and Philadelphia turned it into a 25-yard field goal with 11:01 left to help put the game away.

GAME NOTEBOOK:
The Eagles rushed for a season-high 256 yards. … Romo had his streak of 38 straight games with at least one TD pass – the fifth-longest in NFL history – come to an end. … Murray failed to go for 100 or more yards rushing for just the second time in 12 games this season.
