The Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles have a fierce rivalry that goes back a long time. On Sunday, after the Eagles came up short in the Super Bowl, one Cowboys defender ignited the flames of said rivalry.
Jayron Kearse took to Twitter and posted a gif of Eagles' head coach Nick Sirianni showboating on the sidelines earlier in the season, a true showing of shade by the Cowboys' safety.
The disdain for Sirianni in Dallas is very real. When the Cowboys lost to the Eagles in Week 6, a fight broke out just before the end of the game, and Sirianni was seen saying "F— you" to the Cowboys' sideline.
When Sirianni was walking back to the Eagles' locker room that night, he shouted "How bout them Eagles" twice. This was without question shade by Sirianni because it's no secret that "How bout them Cowboys" has been popular in Dallas since former head coach and Hall of Famer Jimmy Johnson said it after the Dallas beat the San Francisco 49ers in the 1992 NFC Championship Game.
So, some would say turnabout is fair play in this scenario.
There's nothing quite like the hatred between the Cowboys and Eagles, and it will never change, nor should it.
