What happened: Dallas won at Philadelphia on Monday, but its defense's ability to create takeaways remains a concern.

Why it matters: More takeaways would give the Cowboys additional possessions as they try to improve their record. Points off takeaways also depend on whether the offense converts those chances.

By the numbers: Seattle leads with 51 points off takeaways, six more than Green Bay's 45. Cincinnati has 48.

What to watch: Dallas' next game will offer another measure of its takeaway production.
