Two of the most historic franchises in the NFL have been the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles.
And for years the Cowboys Eagles rivalry has been a thing of beauty.
Now the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles feud is getting crazy and will make for an insane Christmas Eve match-up.
The blood runs thick in the NFL with fan bases despising other teams with all the passion they can muster.
And thankfully, for years fans have been blessed with some of the greatest sports rivalries that have spawned from the NFL.
For forty years we watched the Washington Redskins versus the Dallas Cowboys bring some of the greatest games in history of the league.

Other notable rivalries have been Tom Brady with the Patriots versus Peyton Manning with the Colts in the years of quarterback duels that the league had never seen before.
But one rivalry has been renewed in recent years as now both teams are actually pretty good.
The Cowboys versus the Eagles used to be one of the games everyone in the NFL would mark to watch on their calendars as the rivalry was second to none.
Over the years the two teams have found themselves in a bind over not winning games so the rivalry started to fade away.
But now that both Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles are double digit winners it looks like the rivalry is finally back.
And just in time to spice things up for their matchup this week, Micah Parsons was asked if the Eagles are good as a team or because of Jalen Hurts.
Parsons responded, “I think it’s a little bit of both, man. It’s the system and team.”

Well, the Eagles didn’t take too kindly to Parsons’ comments.
Eagles left tackle Jordan Mailata was asked, “I’m going to worry about the Chicago Bears this week, mate. Worry about this game. Micah should worry about his game this week, too.”
“We’ve got the Chicago Bears, not the Chicago Micah Parsons.”
