The NFL season is finally here as the Philadelphia Eagles face the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday to kick off the 2025 campaign.
It's the first time these NFC East rivals face each other to open their season since 2000, when the Eagles defeated the Cowboys 41-14. Philadelphia has the upper hand in the matchup recently with a two-game win streak, beating Dallas by at least 25 points in each of those matchups. The Eagles have never defeated the Cowboys by at least 25 points in three straight games.
This marks the second appearance in the annual NFL kickoff game for Philadelphia, its previous coming in 2018 after its Super Bowl LII victory.
