Dak Prescott believes the Dallas Cowboys can make a statement with a win over the rival Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday.

"If anything, it's about making a statement to ourselves," Prescott said. "It's about, as you look at the season, we've had some games where we played really well and some games where we bit ourselves in the foot and had some games where we didn't and we lost. So yeah, this is about putting our best foot forward, putting our best effort out there and proving it to ourselves in all three phases that we're a hell of a team and we can go get it done against one of the best teams in the league whether they're in our division or not."

The Eagles (13-1) will win the division and claim home-field advantage in the playoffs with one win in their final three games.

In October, the Eagles beat the Cowboys 26-17 at Lincoln Financial Field.

"You lose the first one, you can't wait to see them again, so I mean, I wouldn't say it's anything specific to this team," Ezekiel Elliott said. "I think it would be like that with any team in our division. But, I mean, yeah, definitely want to see the team again. It's just part of being a competitor and loving this game."

Nick Sirianni has confirmed that Jalen Hurts has a sprained right shoulder, but the Philadelphia Eagles aren't ruling him out for Saturday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Sirianni called Hurts one of the "toughest" players he knows and someone who "heals fast," so he isn't going to put a timetable on the injury to the quarterback's throwing shoulder.

"I do not put it past Jalen Hurts, I don't put anything past Jalen Hurts as far as his physical and mental toughness," Sirianni said. "There's a chance he can play this week."

Hurts on Tuesday said there is "definitely a chance" he will be able to play Saturday and he's taking things day by day. He nodded when asked if he's able to throw.

Jalen Hurts is uncertain to play against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday after he sprained his shoulder in the Philadelphia Eagles' win over the Chicago Bears in Week 15, according to league sources.

Hurts was hurt late in the third quarter, when Chicago's Trevis Gipson drove him into ground.

At 13-1, the Eagles need to win just one of their final three games to lock up the No. 1 seed in the NFC.

Micah Parsons is aware of the controversy he stirred up in Philadelphia this week.

"I'm pretty sure they hate me," the Dallas Cowboys linebacker said.

Appearing on "The Voncast" with Von Miller recently, Parsons asked, "When you look at the Eagles, is it [Jalen] Hurts or the team?"

When Miller responded, "I think it's a little bit of both, man," Parsons said, "It's system and team!"

A few Philadelphia Eagles responded to the comments on Wednesday.

"I'm going to worry about the Chicago Bears this week, mate, worry about this game. Micah should worry about his game this week, too. I don't know who the f--- they're playing, pardon my language. Just worry about who you got this week," Jordan Mailata said. "That's how we do it here. I'm not going to worry about any other comments anybody said. That's just how we focus and run about our business. We've got the Chicago Bears, not the Chicago Micah Parsons."

On Thursday, Parsons was asked whether he wanted to clarify his comments

"I mean, you've got to stand on everything you say just as a man, but obviously, they small-clipped it and took one line of what was really talked about," Parsons said. "But no pun intended or no disrespect to Hurts, I think he's doing great this year. But you know me, I'm a defensive guy and I said the Eagles' defense is the team to watch. They just got helluva players over there that's been making plays all year, so from a defensive aspect, I know how offensive guys get all the credit, so I just want to stick up for the defensive guys because the conversation was most valuable player, is it just quarterback?

"Sometimes, I say, 'I know a couple of defensive guys who deserve to be in that conversation,' or even other positions, you know. Even receivers. Look at what Tyreek Hill is doing this year. So it's nothing towards no quarterbacks or anything like that. It's about most valuable player and what people bring to their team. That's what the conversation was about. That's just where I stand on it."

The Eagles and Cowboys will face off on Christmas Eve.

Coach Nick Sirianni suggested it hadn't occurred to him that the Philadelphia Eagles had clinched a playoff spot until it was brought to his attention inside the locker room following Sunday's 48-22 romp of the New York Giants.

"They said that to me in there and I'm like, 'Oh, that's nice,'" Sirianni said. "We've got way bigger goals, and it's on to the next one."

Veteran right tackle Lane Johnson said the postgame scene was "just like another day. We didn't 'Yahoo!' or anything. It was like, 'That's cool.'"

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles because of a neck injury.

The Giants (7-4-1) are also likely to be without defensive tackle Leonard Williams. He is also dealing with a neck injury and did not practice this week.
