Lane Johnson Seeking First Road Win vs. Cowboys in 'A Long Time;
Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports

The Philadelphia Eagles have not beaten the Dallas Cowboys in AT&T Stadium since Nov. 19, 2017, a fact that offensive tackle Lane Johnson seems to be very aware of.

"Obviously last week was a set back but everything we want is in front of us," Johnson said. "You know, it's been a while since we won in Dallas, I think since 2017 or 18, so it's been a while. As far as their D-Line, one of the better D-Line's that we'll see so obviously a big game. Looking to get a win down there, we haven't done it in a long time."

The last time the Eagles defeated the Cowboys in Dallas was on Sunday Night Football in 2017. Carson Wentz had two touchdowns and Dak Prescott threw three interceptions in the game. The leading rushers were Jay Ajayi and Alfred Morris and the leading receivers were Alshon Jeffery and Dez Bryant. 

It's safe to say that it's been a long time since Philadelphia has won at AT&T Stadium. Since that game, the Eagles won Super Bowl LII over Tom Brady, drafted Jalen Hurts, traded Wentz away and then went back to the Super Bowl last season. 

Johnson himself has played against the Cowboys 15 times in his career and has a 7-8 record in those games. When playing them in Dallas, he has a 4-4 record against the Cowboys.

He is currently in his 11th season with Philadelphia and has been one of the best tackles in football for his career, making four Pro Bowls and First Team All-Pro twice.

The Eagles and Cowboys will kick off at AT&T Stadium in Dallas at 8:20 p.m. for Sunday Night Football.
