They already lost to them in the 2025 NFL season opener and now they’re looking for revenge. That’s right, the Cowboys fell to the Eagles 20-24 and this weekend they’ll face them again, only this time at the Lone Star’s home stadium, AT&T Stadium. It’s a crucial game for Jerry Jones’ team, so much so that a legend is ‘forbidding’ them from making a mistake and is putting pressure on quarterback Dak Prescott.
The Eagles have practically secured their playoff berth after finishing first in the NFC East with 8 wins and 2 losses. In second place are the Cowboys, with 4 wins, 5 losses, and 1 tie, so they desperately need a win, especially against Philadelphia, the toughest team in their division. Although the Eagles are favored by sportsbooks, many believe Dallas will get their revenge.
Emmitt Smith, legend with 164 rushing touchdowns, urges Cowboys to “protect the house”
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott knows they can’t afford to lose now. They’re second in the NFC East, but in the NFC playoff race, they’re a distant tenth. The Eagles will visit them on Sunday, November 23. And the legends are taking notice. Emmitt Smith, the NFL’s all-time leader in carries (4,409), rushing yards (18,355), and rushing touchdowns (164), sent an urgent message.
“Statement game on Sunday. Protect the house,” his urgent message read. The franchise hasn’t won a championship in three decades. Smith was on the team when they won three Super Bowls in the 1990s. Dak Prescott entered the 2025 season with a 9-4 record against the Eagles. But they lost the season opener against the Super Bowl LIX winners at Lincoln Financial Field by 34-21.

Dallas officially announced its final roster moves Tuesday night. Center Wesley French was also released from the practice squad.
The Cowboys selected Clark in the fifth round of the 2022 draft after four years at LSU. In 2021, the then-senior started all 13 games and led the SEC in tackles. Clark did not play Monday night in the Cowboys’ 33-16 win over the Raiders. In his eight appearances this season, Clark totaled 14 tackles and seven solo tackles.
