Eagles opening 2025 NFL season against new-look Cowboys
NY Post
The Eagles’ Super Bowl defense will start against a familiar foe.
Philadelphia will open the 2025 NFL season against the NFC East rival Dallas Cowboys on Thursday, Sept. 4, ESPN.com reported.
The Eagles defeated the Chiefs, 40-22, in Super Bowl LIX, and the defending champs traditionally open up the following season.
When the Eagles last won a Super Bowl in 2017, they opened the following season with an 18-12 win over the Falcons.
Philadelphia dominated in both its games against Dallas last season, outscoring them 75-13 combined in the matchups.
The Cowboys are coming off a dismal 7-10 season that led to head coach Mike McCarthy and the franchise parting ways afterwards.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
