Roob’s Eagles Stats, featuring the ‘Dallas Sucks’ section originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
The highlight of this week’s Roob’s Eagles Stats is the Dallas Sucks section. Just wait till you see our first Cooper Rush stat. It’s completely bonkers.
But first, we have some truly remarkable Eagles stats. Be patient!
1. The mind-blowing road blowouts streak
1A. With wins by 25 points over the Giants at MetLife, 20 points over the Bengals in Cincinnati and 28 points Sunday in Dallas, this is the first time the Eagles have won three straight road games by 20 or more points since 1948, when they beat Washington by 45 at Griffith Stadium, the Steeler by 27 at Forbes Field and the Giants by 21 at the Polo Grounds. The Eagles are the 12th team in the last 40 years to win three straight road games by 24 points.

Over the past 70 years, they had only five other five-game spans where the defense allowed fewer than 50 points – 1974 (41 points allowed), 1980 (47), 1981 (46), 1989 (39) and 2000 (47). And that’s it since 1954.
2B. They’ve also allowed just 1004 net yards in their last five games, their lowest five-game total in 70 years. The 1954 Eagles allowed 888 yards in games against the Steelers, Washington, Steelers again, Packers and Cards.
2C. The Eagles have 10 takeaways in their last three games, matching their most in a three-game span since 2009. They had 12 takeaways in their previous 21 games.
2D. In each of their five wins…
