Cowboys DE DeMarcus Lawrence vs. Eagles LT Jason Peters: Lawrence led the Cowboys with eight sacks a season ago, but has yet to record one this season. He faces a stiff challenge against Eagles left tackle Peters, an eight-time Pro Bowler. Lawrence and the rest of the Cowboys’ defensive linemen must get pressure on rookie quarterback Carson Wentz, but they will be hard-pressed to have success against Peters.
