Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles Preview

Found October 27, 2011 on The Landry Hat:
PLAYERS: Randall Cunningham,  Michael Irvin,  Michael Vick
TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys,  Philadelphia Eagles,  Washington Redskins
 Despite a short stint in Dallas, he will always be remembered for running up the score.While the Dallas Cowboys versus the Washington Redskins used to be a marquee rivalry, it is arguable that the Cowboys and Eagles has become the biggest rivalry in the NFC East. According to a recent Landry Hat poll, the Philadelphia Eagles are the team most disliked by Dallas Cowboy fans. I, for one, will never forget that time in 1987 when Randall Cunningham, despite leading 30-20 with less than a minute to play, faked a third consecutive kneel-down and instead threw a touchdown pass.  For a really intense rivalry to thrive, the antagonism has to go both ways.  Thankfully, I am sure that the fans in Philly have a similar dislike for the Boys (why else would they wildly cheer when Michael Irvin was injured?)Given the magnitude of this rivalry, I am going to break with tradition and try to write a 3-part preview this week instead of my normal 2-part series.

Breaking Down the Opponent: Dallas Cowboys

Via NBC Philadelphia  |  October 26, 2011
Tuesday night, I hunkered down in the film room (read: NFL Game Rewind) and watched the last two games of the Eagles’ week eight opponent, the hated Dallas Cowboys. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much. The team is 3-3, including three fourth quarter letdowns. Most of the press I’ve stumbled across about the division rival has been disparaging at best. But I came away from...

Should Cowboys Approach Philly As "Just Another Game"?

Via NBC Dallas- Fort Worth  |  October 27, 2011
There doesn’t seem to be a disagreement in the Cowboys locker room over whether or not the Eagles game is a big game. It is. That’s accepted. But there does seem to be a disagreement over whether players should approach the game as such, or whether they should do their best to treat it as “just another game.” Mike Jenkins, for instance, subscribes to the latter approach...
