The Dallas Cowboys will officially kick the season off on Thursday, September 4th against the Philadelphia Eagles, and when they do they will be going up against the reigning Super Bowl Champions. Such a spot is not unfamiliar territory for the Cowboys as a handful of them went down to Tampa Bay to face the Buccaneers in the same setting to start the 2021 season. You will recall that Dallas fell short that night.
A decade and a half ago, though, a very different Cowboys team successfully spoiled the party that the New York Giants were having when they raised their own Super Bowl banner.
