The Eagles suffered one of the most embarrassing losses of the 2025 NFL season against the Cowboys on Sunday.
After jumping out to a 21–0 lead over their division rivals, the Eagles proceeded to absolutely collapse, allowing Dallas all the way back into the game before giving up a walk-off field goal to Brandon Aubrey to secure a 24–21 defeat.
Things started off great for Philadelphia, with wide receiver A.J. Brown, who has been the focus of plenty of attention so far this year, broke free for the first touchdown of the game. Quarterback Jalen Hurts would run for two more touchdowns in the first half, putting the Eagles firmly in control.
But it all fell apart from there. The reigning Super Bowl champions would go on to punt four straight times, miss a field goal, fumble and punt again, not securing another point for the rest of the game. Meanwhile, the Cowboys rallied, and despite some heroic stops from the Eagles defense, put themselves in position to win with Aubrey’s kick as time expired.
Online, Eagles fans did not hold back while calling out their team. Had they been at home, they surely would have been booed off of the field, but since the game was in Dallas, fans could only vent their frustrations on social media.

This is where a team with such sustained success (and hated by the league/media) is a negative. Locker room doesn't stand a chance. It's either an elite Super Bowl run or collapse for the current Eagles- no in between. Very obviously the latter is coming. https://t.co/v7lKhL0tth

They deserve this.
They deserve to be humiliated.
They’ve been putting forth embarassing efforts most of the season and have gotten away with it.
Now they can’t hide behind “well we still won”
Time to put some feet to the fire.
This isn’t acceptable. pic.twitter.com/npUyEJgHgI

No excuse whatsoever for the Eagles offense to not score a point in the final 41:30 vs one of the worst defenses in the league.
None.

Today was the Eagles' worst rushing success rate in a regular-season game under Nick Sirianni.
They ran 18 times for 63 yards and did not have a single run of 10+ yards.
They have not been a good running team all season -- all the way down to 22th in success rate.

The Eagles will have to shake off the loss and get back to work fast, as they host the Bears on Friday.
