The 2025 NFL season is set to kick off in style, as the reigning Super Bowl champion Eagles welcome the Cowboys under the Friday night lights.
Philadelphia rides in with plenty of momentum after a 14-3 regular season that ended with a statement 40-22 victory over Kansas City on the game’s biggest stage. Dallas, meanwhile, comes in licking its wounds from a 7-10 campaign that saw Dak Prescott sidelined by a hamstring injury after just eight games.
To make matters tougher, the Cowboys parted ways with star pass rusher Micah Parsons, sending him to Green Bay just last week. This marks the first time these NFC East foes square off in Week 1 since 2000.
Without Parsons wreaking havoc, the Dallas defense has a hard time collapsing the pocket, giving Jalen Hurts room to breathe and connect with A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith for explosive gains. Prescott and CeeDee Lamb eventually find a rhythm, but their late push doesn’t move the needle enough.
Saquon Barkley’s steady ground game helps the Eagles dictate the tempo, while Zack Baun, Jalen Carter, and rookie Quinyon Mitchell slam the door defensively, sealing a convincing season-opening statement for Philadelphia.
