Christmas could come early for Philadelphia Eagles fanatics in 2022
As we await the release of the Philadelphia Eagles schedule, it’s hard not to grab your phone every time you hear your iPhone and Android alert you of a notification. Sadly, these days, it’s often been to inform you that Best Buy has a sale and the makers of your device’s software had just blocked another spam call.
In the hours leading up to the release of the 2022-2023 NFL schedule, that changed though. Samsung and Apple did us all a solid.
The Philadelphia Eagles’ first opponent of the 2022 season is announced, and we learn of what could be an early Christmas present.

There are quite a few storylines to be mindful of for that one. One, Jalen Hurts is 0-2 as the Eagles’ starter versus Dallas. Second, Dallas is enjoying a three-game winning streak over the Birds. Third, if you’re a history buff, these two age-old rivals met on Christmas back in 2006 and on Christmas Eve back in 2011.
Both games were won by Philly by scores of 23-7 and 20-7. Let’s hope a similar beatdown is on its way.
