The NFL season kicked off with fireworks in Philadelphia as the Eagles outlasted the Cowboys in a wild divisional showdown. The night began with controversy when Jalen Carter shocked fans with an unsportsmanlike spitting incident directed at Dak Prescott—a classless move that drew plenty of criticism and may lead to league discipline.On the field, the game unfolded in two completely different halves. The first half was a track meet, with both offenses scoring at will and combining for 41 points. Philadelphia leaned on its run game, while Dallas spread the ball around with confidence. But after halftime, the defenses stole the spotlight. Both teams clamped down, allowing just three total points in the second half.The Cowboys’ defense adjusted impressively despite missing Micah Parsons, bottling up Saquon Barkley after a dominant first half. New additions like linebacker Clark showed promise, but critical mistakes kept Dallas from capitalizing. CeeDee Lamb, usually reliable, dropped multiple passes—including one that could have extended the final drive. A costly Dallas fumble earlier also swung momentum in the Eagles’ favor.Philadelphia wasn’t flawless. Their offense looked limited, with A.J. Brown invisible until a late catch and Jalen Hurts producing a modest passing performance. Add in nine penalties for 110 yards, and the Eagles nearly gave this one away. Still, they defended home turf, proving once again that they can grind out wins even when the passing attack sputters.A divisional win to open the season is huge—but questions linger for both teams.
