The NFL is a religion and the liturgy of the same already has a start date: this Thursday, September 4 at 8:20 p.m., the Dallas Cowboys will face the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. The curtain rises with a tremendous game
The Super Bowl LIX champion hosts its divisional archrival in a game that, like all games between them, will make, and be, history. Kick off time!
What time is the Cowboys vs Eagles game and where can I watch it?

A revenge-flavored kickoff
The Eagles have not touched the base team that gave them the championship. Jalen Hurts leads the offense with his powerful arm and Nick Siriano is the brains, the head coach, the one who moves the whole shebang
In addition, they will take advantage of the game’s prime time to unveil their Super Bowl LIX championship banner in front of their home crowd.
The Cowboys arrive with a messy desk, after a turbulent preseason, where Micah Parsons was sent to the Packers in a historic trade
Without their defensive star, the weight of the team falls on Dak Prescott and coach Brian Schottenheimer.
It will be the 17th time that the Cowboys and Eagles have met on Sunday Night Football, making it the most-played matchup in the program’s history. A classic that is played for much more than points: an early lead in the NFC East and bragging rights for the whole year.
It will be a special edition of Sunday Night Football on Thursday, something NBC traditionally uses to open each season.
