The Eagles beat the Dallas Cowboys, 24-20, on Thursday night in the opening game of the NFL season, but it was a lot tougher than anticipated. And had CeeDee Lamb not dropped a couple of huge passes that were in his hands in the final minutes, they might not have won at all.

Here are the three takeaways headlines from the Cowboys' Week 1 loss. The connection is still strong between quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb. Lamb starts his season with another 100-yard receiving game, proving that he is picking up right where he left off last season.

QB Dak Prescott was among a myriad of key starters who have yet to suit up, including new wideout George Pickens who will team up with CeeDee Lamb. They'll face an Eagles defense with a questionable secondary, so as long as the weather provides and the rust isn't too great, things could be exciting in a hurry on Thursday night.
