Once a coach gets hired to take over the reins of the Philadelphia Eagles, their job is to get the team to be a consistent winner, but also get enough wins against NFC East opponents on a regular basis, which was part of the mindset behind hiring Doug Pederson in 2016.
In the NFL, one of the greatest rivalries comes from within the NFC East, which is when the Eagles and Dallas Cowboys battle it out twice a year.
Any Eagles coach knows that when it comes to the Cowboys, these contests are considered must-win games by the fan base, and any loss is considered a major disappointment.
