On Friday, Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said Micah Parsons' trade will not alter the team's ambitions this season.

"I stared right down the barrel of the gun and said, 'Hey, I want to win a Super Bowl,'" Schottenheimer said. "That doesn't change. We get excited about the pieces that we're adding. I don't sit around and think about, 'Man, this is my first year as the head coach.' This is part of the business. I'm comfortable with that."

Schottenheimer is in his first year as Dallas coach. Last season, the Cowboys finished with a 7-10 record, failing to reach the playoffs in Mike McCarthy's final year.

Dallas will rely heavily on star quarterback Dak Prescott to deliver the goods against the Eagles.

Philadelphia, on the other hand, won the Super Bowl last season and will enter the 2025 season with hopes to defend the championship.

The Eagles still have most of their core lineup from last season and boast a variety of offensive weapons, including running back Saquon Barkley. Superstar quarterback Jalen Hurts will lead the offense for Philly in Week 1 on Thursday night.
