2025 Season | Week 1 | Gameday Chatter Thread | Cowboys @ Eagles | 9/4/2025

[Cowboysrock55]

My guess is both guys are for special teams purposes.

Eagles 34
Cowboys 17

They're the more talented team and they've had the benefit of operating in a stable, distraction free football environment.

I'm just hoping they don't hang a 40 burger on us. If the defense can at least keep the score reasonable I can kind of enjoy the game.

First NFL game to be watched on my new 85" 4k TCL TV.

.... maybe I should delay and watch a good game on it this weekend instead to Christen it?

All I ask is that you post the video of you punching it after Saquon's 3rd touchdown of the night.

His big game against Dallas in 2024 was an anomaly relative to how well the team has traditionally played against him, but I see where you're coming from.

The Eagles just have too many weapons and Dallas lacks the ability to counter them all.

It was all Kellen Moore...

If "Here we go!" is gone, we have a chance.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Well yeah, he didn't have Philly's O-line with the crappy Giants.

And Here We Go is still here...

 

[Cujo]

Flipping around Roku, look at Florio's attire for today.

Fucking fag.

They could win, it's week 1 after all. I've seen weirder shit happen but I'm not betting on it.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Yeah I'm not. Sorry, don't have the faith in this team.

It's not about winning. It's do you think we will win or at least keep the game close. I just don't have faith that either are likely.

It's week 1, but has the opening night game ever had an upset? The favorites seem to usually be hyped for this game.

Detroit beating KC in the Toney game?

Detroit beating KC in the Toney game?

Detroit was actually good that year though.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Yeah, without looking it up it does seem like the Super Bowl champ always wins this game. It's the SB loser that has the hangover.

We beat Tampa several years ago, I think it was Brady's 2nd season there. Maybe? I'm pretty sure we were almost a touchdown underdog. It was in Tampa.

Edit: I am wrong, we did not win. 31-29.

True, but I worded that very carefully, since there wasn't a super bowl winner last year. I think they cancelled the game or something if I remember correctly.

 

[bbgun]

Detroit was actually good that year though.

They were road dogs. It was still an upset.

Us beating the defending champion Giants in this exact scenario in 2012.
