DAL Cowboys vs. PHI Eagles Game Day Preview
To kick off the 2025 NFL season, the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles will host the Dallas Cowboys in a primetime Thursday night showdown. Last year, the Eagles dominated the rivalry, holding Dallas to just 13 total points in a staggering 75–13 combined margin across their two victories. This season, however, Dallas brings Dak Prescott back under center to steady the offense, while Philadelphia looks to build on its championship momentum and extend its home-field dominance in a series it has recently controlled.
Dallas Cowboys
2024 Record = 7-10 (Missed Playoffs)
2024 Road Record = 4-4
2024 ATS Record = 7-10
The Dallas Cowboys enter 2025 looking to rebound from a 7–10 campaign that left them outside the playoff picture. With Brian Schottenheimer taking over as head coach, Dallas leans on the stability of quarterback Dak Prescott, the addition of wide receiver George Pickens, and promising rookies to spark a turnaround. Still, questions loom on defense, particularly in a rebuilt secondary and an inconsistent run defense. The ongoing uncertainty surrounding the departure of Micah Parsons adds additional concerns. Concerns on the status of the locker room moral!
“I never wanted this chapter to end but not everything was in my control. My heart has always been here, and it still is” – Micah Parsons
The Cowboys prepare to start the new season with division rivals over the next two weeks. (Week 2 will be home against the New York Giants)
Philadelphia Eagles
2024 Record = 14-3 (NFC East Winners)
2024 Playoff Record (Super Bowl Champions)
2024 Home Record = 12-1
2924 ATS Record = 14-7
Fresh off their Super Bowl LIX championship, the Philadelphia Eagles enter 2025 with a roster still stacked with playmakers and continuity at key positions. Jalen Hurts remains the centerpiece of the offense, surrounded by A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and running back star Saquon Barkley. 2024 home run 1st round pick Quinyon Mitchell leads the secondary complementing an already physical defense. The PHI Eagles are balanced on both sides of the ball.
Once again the defending champs will be difficult to beat but do not use the “defending champs” term in front of Jordan Mailata. The big left tackle let everyone know about it after the first training camp practice of 2025.
”Stop saying the Eagles are defending champions. We’re not defending nothing. We’re not the defending champs. We’re the 2024 world champs, that’s it. We’re not defending s—. We’re not.” – Jordan Mailata
