Philadelphia Eagles Defeat the Dallas Cowboys, Jalen Carter Ejected, and Week 1 Struggles

In a chaotic season opener, the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Dallas Cowboys in a wild 24-20 victory that came down to the wire. But the win was far from perfect.

Join Basil and Baz as they break down a night full of drama. They'll dive into the shocking ejection of All-Pro defensive tackle Jalen Carter, who was tossed from the game for unsportsmanlike conduct before a single snap was played. What led to the incident with Dak Prescott, and how did it impact the Eagles' defense?

Beyond the Carter incident, the guys analyze the Eagles' Week 1 struggles, including a flurry of costly penalties, a mid-game injury to starting lineman Landon Dickerson, and an offense that stalled in the second half. How did the Eagles manage to hold on for the win despite these self-inflicted wounds, and what does it mean for their ability to repeat as champions?

They’ll also discuss the highs of the game—the triumphant return of Jalen Hurts, a solid debut from Saquon Barkley, and a defense that pitched a second-half shutout. Tune in for all the post-game analysis and takeaways on the latest episode of Philly Eagles Therapy!
