Season Opener - Eagles host Cowboys 9/4

[Iggloo]

Wasn't this the beginning of the Dave Campo era?

Worst era in Cowboys history.

Worst era...until now?

That'd be one of the dumbest decisions ever. Plus the SB Champs have opened on Thursday for like 2 decades now.

Sanders drives ratings they will get some for him. Don't kid yourself.

If the Brian Schottenheimer era does do worse than the Campo era.....

what am I thinking.....

Jerry will still be stubborn as fuck and refuse to acknowledge they need to change the way they are "structured".

Chiefs vs. Chargers in Brazil

 

[Battlelyon]

Yeah, Chargers don't deserve it.

Cowboys are always a good draw but Skins or Lions would be the best opponent for Eagles opener.

Who are the Skins?

 

[jarntt]

Sounds about right, and the Joe Milton era begins.

I dunno, I think most of America will enjoy seeing Dallas beaten up on national TV to start the season, even if it's Philly doing the damage. Not a bad game for the defending champs to start the season IMO.

I'm not so sure about that. You guys may be the only ones that make people root for us!

HTTR!!

I like it for Dallas. Weather won't be a factor. Bring it on

Interesting a division rivalry to start the season - I didn’t expect this but I guess the NFL wanted a major rivalry to kickoff the season plus the Cowboys are a team they love to showcase.
I can’t wait for it, I love the NFL!!

The Browns playing on the opening Thursday in place of the SB Champs would be one of the dumbest decisions ever. Sanders probably won't even start week 1. Come watch Joe Flacco and the DT they took in the first round. Lol.

The most watched game of the football week is the Sunday Night game. That is where the Eagles game should be. The Browns should regulated to Thursday

The Browns should get 0 primetime games. Maybe they'll get a Monday night game, because mostly every team does, but they're no draw whatsoever this upcoming season.

Its good to get the Cowboys on the TV schedule early in the season when their games still feel like they matter.

Zoom! Bop! Boom!

How'd I do Phili fans?

Good stuff! Seriously though, you are right, as I had tickets to Eagles-Cowboys last season in Philly and by the time the game happened near the end of the season, Dak was hurt and Dallas was toast.

This year I think Dallas is going to be a .500 type team that may improve as the season goes along thanks to a pretty strong draft class.

the Thursday night week 1 game will have more viewers

Think he’s just bored and wants to be a contrarian.

Commandoskins and Eagles should've been the matchup, but I always enjoy watching the Cowboys get destroyed on national television...

well said
