After Sunday night's loss to the Dallas Cowboys in overtime, Doug Pederson wants to be more "aggressive" in his play-calling for the Philadelphia Eagles going forward.

The Eagles held a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter before the Cowboys forced overtime and then scored on the first drive of the extra period.

Philadelphia punted to Dallas rather than attempt a 54-yard field goal with 6:34 left in regulation. The kick would have given the Eagles a 10-point lead again. Caleb Sturgis had hit 17 straight field goals, including a 55-yarder just before halftime.

"(I) felt comfortable doing that, making that decision," Pederson said. "The thing is, field position at that time is critical. [Sturgis] did kick the one before half, which was an excellent kick with no time left on the clock. Had we executed on the third-down play, we would have been in a little better position to kick the field goal at that time and we just didn't execute on the play before."

Pederson talking about learning lessons from the loss, and he said: "I think just, for me, staying aggressive, No. 1."
