EAST RUTHERFORD, NEW JERSEY - SEPTEMBER 26: Jason Peters #71 and Matt Farniok #68 of the Dallas Cowboys walk off the field after defeating the New York Giants in the game at MetLife Stadium on September 26, 2022 in East Rutherford, New Jersey. (Photo PHILADELPHIA - Jason Peters is ready to return to Philly and play in front of some bleeping idiots.His endearing words toward the fans, of course.A nine-time Pro Bowl pick and two-time All-Pro, Peters built a Hall of Fame-worthy career at left tackle for the Eagles that included a spot on the NFL’s Team of the Decade for the 2010s.He missed out, though, on the biggest moment in franchise history when he suffered a torn ACL during the 2017 season and missed the Super Bowl.
Peters still earned a Super Bowl ring but his performance never quite rebounded to an elite level. He spent last season with Chicago and signed this season with the Cowboys — you know, the Eagles' most-hated rival.Peters comes back for a pretty big game: The Eagles are 5-0 and the only undefeated team in the NFL.
The Cowboys (4-1) have won four straight. The Eagles can take a two-game lead on the defending division champions with a victory on Sunday night.Philadelphia is 5-0 for the third time in franchise history.
The Eagles started 7-0 in 2004 when they finished 13-3 in the regular season before falling in the Super Bowl to New England, and began 6-0 in 1981 but dropped their first playoff game.The Linc will be rowdy -- and Peters will be ready."I just know the Philly fans are (expletive) idiots when it comes to camaraderie and the Cowboys — any team, really," Peters said. "They start throwing stuff at teams.
Like, when we played the Vikings one year, they were throwing stuff. I mean, they nasty."Peters
