I think this latest home victory over the Eagles is,in my opinion,the greatest home win ever!!!!Not only was it a nail biter to the end(I almost chewed my fingers off),it broke records.So now ALL of us Cowboys fans can say,we won our first,and last,home game against the Eagles, at Texas Stadium.I don’t think any other team in football has ever done that.At least,not in my lifetime(37 years).That’s why this win is so special to me,and my favorite.My whole life as a Cowboys fan has been at Texas stadium.I’ll miss Texas Stadium,but,I can’t wait to start SMASHING the Eagles in the new one!!!!
GO COWBOYS!!!!
We WILL be the SIX time Superbowl Champions thiis year.I can feel it!!!

I am a Cowboys fan since 1974, originally out of Washington, D.C., and no team is hated more than DaBoys in my hometown. I have enjoyed this rivalry with friends and coworkers for a lot of years, luckily on the winning end of most. Bragging rights baby! Egals fans are nothing but a bunch of pre-game trashtalkers and post-game weeepers and chokers!

Dallas fan since 1966. I was just a tyke when Don Meredith lit up the Eagles in 1966. I was just awed by all the multiple sets, the team speed and all of the skill of the various players. Plus the defense (just now being called “Doomsday”) was incredible. But I voted for the 1992 playoff game because it was an important marker of the franchise being on the road back to excellence.

I have lived in Texas and outside of Philadelphia. Interesting contrast in fan views and fan culture!

That’s certainly fair, Dave. I grew up a Cowboys fan in a suburb of St. Louis, so I know the feeling of being among enemies. I was thinking more along the lines of the most memorable win over the Eagles – heck, even the win during the strike game in 1987 was a good one.

I’ve been a cowboys fan since about 1979.I was born in NJ in 1972.As a 7 year old I’ll admit I only liked the silver and blue with the big blue star on the helmet.Then a couple of years later I began to understand the game and the rivalry.I disliked the Eagles then.I lived in central Jersey as a teen-ager in school among Giants or Eagles fans.Not very Cowboy friendly country.Now I live aprox.30-40 min north of Philadelphia in a small town in PA.Even less friendly cowboy country.I truly HATE the Eagles now.My point is this:MY entire football loving life has been as a Cowboys fan.There is NO single game that can be defined as the greatest home win over the Eagles.EVERY win over the Eagles,home or away, is the greatest win for this Cowboys fan living in Eagles country.Die Eagles Die score no touchdowns on Monday…………….

I’m sorry for the trouble, Fred. I tried to reinstall the sidebar widget for the polls, and it might have messed up the poll. I think I’ve solved it.

OK, maybe it did work after all.
