  • Season 2, Episode 9 - Birds, ‘Boys and Bad Blood
    Return Game: Birds, ‘Boys and Bad Blood presented by NovaCare Rehabilitation is the sweeping story of the Eagles and Cowboys Rivalry. By 2013 the bad blood between the Birds and the ‘Boys had been there for decades with no signs of waning. The Eagles had a new coach and were down in Dallas. It was the de facto NFC East championship game and the pressure was on!
    Of course every Eagles fan knows that 2017 was the year the Birds went all the way - finally! But they had to overtake Dallas along on that journey and this game did not disappoint.
    In 2019, the fate of the NFC East would again be influenced in a late season matchup between the Eagles and Cowboys. Who would come on top in this one?

  • Season 2, Episode 2 - Dick Vermeil to the Rescue
    Return Game: Birds, 'Boys, and Bad Blood, presented by NovaCare Rehabilitation, is the sweeping story of the Eagles and Cowboys rivalry. The early 1970s was a painful time for Eagles fans, but they knew better days were ahead - how couldn’t they be?! Tom Landry was coaching the 'Boys and they were really, really good. After winning the franchise's first Super Bowl in 1972, the Eagles took their best shot in a memorable 1973 showdown. By 1976, something needed to be done to shake up the team. A college coach from UCLA was just the change-maker the Birds had been waiting for - but it wasn’t going to be easy.

  • Season 2, Episode 3 - We want Dallas
    Return Game: Birds, ‘Boys and Bad Blood presented by NovaCare Rehabilitation is the sweeping story of the Eagles and Cowboys Rivalry. In 1979, the Eagles headed to Dallas where they attempted to beat the defending Super Bowl Champs in Texas Stadium. When the Cowboys scored first, Eagles fans may have felt rumblings of that "not again" dread, whether they cared to admit it.. But the Birds were always full of surprises! By January 1981, it was here - the game. One that took on as much importance as any previous game in the franchise's history. Dallas was in our house and everything unfolded as Coach Vermeil had planned since his arrival.

  • Season 2, Episode 4 - Buddy Ball
    Return Game: Birds, 'Boys, and Bad Blood, presented by NovaCare Rehabilitation, is the sweeping story of the Eagles and Cowboys Rivalry. Arguably one of the greatest contributors to the Birds and 'Boys rivalry, Buddy Ryan loved to stir the pot, and fans delighted in what he was cooking. They loved his rift with Tom Landry, they loved it when he would disparage the team in the press, and they loved it even more when he led the team in some of the most iconic games of the mid-to-late 1980s. This episode is packed full of drama and includes revenge plots, a changing of the guard in Dallas, more payback, and snowballs. Buddy really left his mark on this rivalry.

  • Season 2, Episode 5 - Gang Green
    Return Game: Birds, ‘Boys, and Bad Blood, presented by NovaCare Rehabilitation, is the sweeping story of the Eagles and Cowboys rivalry. Troy Aikman was introduced to the rivalry early in his Hall of Fame career when he met Gang Green - the vaunted Eagles defense. And in 1991, his number was up - or was his number 11?  Tragedy struck the Eagles in 1992 when teammate, friend, and brother Jerome Brown died in a car accident. His memory inspired the team to attempt to “Bring it Home for Jerome.” By 1993, players had secured free agency resulting in the Birds' roster being completely remade. Fans have wondered "what if?" ever since. Meanwhile, the ‘Boys stayed relatively intact and continued to dominate.  To experience more of the rivalry between the Birds and the ‘Boys, head over to: [https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/birdsboysbadblood](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/birdsboysbadblood).

  • Season 2, Episode 7 - Fortune Favors the Bold
    Return Game: Birds, 'Boys, and Bad Blood, presented by NovaCare Rehabilitation, is the sweeping story of the Eagles and Cowboys Rivalry. The Birds and 'Boys take their rivalry into the new millennium and celebrate kicking off the Y2K season with a clash. It’s Texas in early September and the Eagles are prepared for anything Dallas has for them including a thermometer that needs to be checked twice to make sure it’s accurate! In 2004, Donovan McNabb and Terrell Owens had found a partnership that seemed to work on the field. With a strong offense and a powerful defense, the Birds flew all the way to the Super Bowl. By 2005, that momentum was sputtering and T.O.'s future in Philly was left in doubt.
