The Rivalry: Reviewing the history of the Eagles and the Cowboys

It can be argued that the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys have the fiercest and most heated rivalry in all of sports. Ever since their first meeting in 1960, it was apparent that this could become something special. It was the Cowboys’ first season in the league. They finished with a goose egg in the win column.

The Eagles went on to win the NFL Championship that year. With that victory came Green Bay Packers coach Vince Lombardi‘s only post-season defeat. The Eagles won their first ever game against the Cowboys by a score of 27-25.
