Once the clock hit triple zeros and the Philadelphia Eagles were crowned Super Bowl LIX champions, we knew they’d be the host team for the 2025 regular season opener. After all, it’s customary for the defending champs to kick off the following year at home. Now, we know who they’ll be hosting.
In the lead-up to the full 2025 regular season schedule being released on Wednesday, NBC officially unveiled Philadelphia’s Week 1 opponent and who’ll join them in kicking off the new year: the Dallas Cowboys. The game will be held on Thursday, September 4, at Lincoln Financial Field.
So, after the Eagles unveil their latest Super Bowl banner, we’ll have ourselves an NFC East rivalry to sink our teeth into right out of the gate. Last season, the Eagles swept the season series and outscored Dallas, 75-13. Philadelphia is currently riding a three-game winning streak against the Cowboys at home, but Dallas does play well on Thursday nights, as they are on a 7-0 winning streak on Thursdays heading into Week 1.
The Cowboys were one of eight teams that the NFL schedule makers chose from. The other clubs that Philly is slated to host this season and just missed out on being there in Week 1 are the Washington Commanders, New York Giants, Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Rams, and Denver Broncos.
Of course, Philadelphia has arguably the storyline hovering over them as they look to repeat as Super Bowl champions. That said, the Cowboys, as always, are a lightning rod of headlines as well. This game will be the debut of first-year head coach Brian Schottenheimer, who was hired after the club decided to part ways with former coach Mike McCarthy. On top of the new leader on the sideline, Dallas will also welcome the return of quarterback Dak Prescott, who was limited to just eight games last year and missed the final nine weeks of the regular season due to a hamstring injury. Prescott will also have a new weapon at his disposal after the Cowboys pulled off a trade to acquire former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens last week.
This matchup sets the stage for what is expected to be a wildly competitive division in the NFC East. En route to hoisting the Lombardi Trophy last season, the Eagles needed to go through another division rival in the Commanders, whom they met in the NFC Championship. And if Dallas can rebound in 2025, that adds another team standing in Philly’s way of a potential back-to-back title run.

Notre Dame football schedule, kickoff times 2025: Texas A&M, USC, Navy set as home opponents in prime time
USATSI Notre Dame is fresh off an impressive run to the College Football Playoff National Championship, taking full advantage of the first year of the 12-team format while marching to Atlanta as the No. 7 seed. As the calendar turns to the offseason, all of the focus now is centered entirely on whether the Fighting Irish will run it back in 2025. With how coach Marcus Freeman has recruited and developed talent -- Notre Dame has improved its win total in each of its three years under his guidance -- the Irish certainly project as one of the top teams in college football next season. CBS Sports' Brandon Marcello ranked Notre Dame No. 7 in his post-spring top 25. Now we have more details about the path that Notre Dame will have to take back to the postseason as the Fighting Irish […]

Ancelotti, no comando do Real Madrid. Foto: Divulgação/RMCF Novo treinador da seleção brasileira, Carlo Ancelotti já deixou claro algumas vezes qual jogador considera o melhor da história do futebol. Trata-se de Cristiano Ronaldo, com quem trabalhou entre 2013 e 2015 no Real Madrid. “Se o Cristiano Ronaldo é o melhor da história? Ele está marcando uma era, para mim ele tem sido o melhor”, cravou o italiano, em declaração no começo deste ano.

Opakuje se to a objevuje se to častěji,“ prohodil po porážce 1:2 univerzál Jaroslav Zelený ze Sparty.„Mám na to pořád stejný názor. Rád bych viděl kolem hřiště spoustu míčů na kuželech, ať si to hráči berou sami. Tím by se předešlo podobným situacím,“ navrhoval kouč Slavie Jindřich Trpišovský.Nebyla to alibistická fráze.
