The showdown on Sunday Night Football between the 5-0 Philadelphia Eagles and 4-1 Dallas Cowboys could be the game of the year, and will definitely be the best game of Week 6.
There is so much bad blood between the two teams. This rivalry goes back decades and is one of the best rivalries the NFL has, if not the best. The Eagles don't like the Cowboys and vice versa. We saw a bit of that on Thursday, as one Cowboys player was already taking shots at Eagles' quarterback Jalen Hurts.
“Has he played us?” Cowboys' defender DeMarcus Lawrence asked after he was asked about how well Hurts has played. “All right. “All you need to write is he hasn’t played the Cowboys yet, so we don’t know how good he is.”
Lawrence then went on to say the Eagles' offense will be a good challenge, but then added, “But also, we Dem Boys,” Lawrence said “Remember that. Don’t worry about it. “Y’all will see it on Sunday.”
Almost all of the questions were asked about hurts, and it seemed like Lawrence was fed up.
“How about this,” Lawrence said. “This is the last question I’ll hear about Hurts. “For real, though. Because I really don’t care.”
Then, the Cowboys' defender was asked about the Eagles' offense overall. It didn't seem like he liked that either.
“You know, you’re asking me questions like I should be worried about them,” Lawrence replied. “Never worried, never scared, never quivering from any situation. “I just want y’all to understand we’re coming to play, too.”
You know, it is your job to answer questions about the other team too, because that is who you all are playing. There was really no need to throw shots at the Eagles there, but it is the Cowboys, so what else can you really expect?
That right there alone should show you how heated this matchup will be.
