The NFL season kicks off tomorrow with an NFC showdown that’s expected to bring more than 67,000 fans to Lincoln Financial Field, and it’s pricey.

The price of the NFL season opener
The first game of the season already brings about a lot of buzz, but last year’s Super Bowl winners and America’s team - plus one of the bigger rivalries in the NFL - add to the excitement built around the Thursday night game.
The Eagles enter as heavy favorites (-395, -7.5 spread) after sweeping Dallas last season by a combined 75–13. Jalen Hurts leads an explosive offense with stars A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Saquon Barkley, while a deep defense is anchored by Jalen Carter and rookie corners Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean.
The Cowboys come in with a healthy Dak Prescott and top target CeeDee Lamb. New addition George Pickens joins the receiving corps, while Dallas’ defense looks to rebound after last year’s struggles.
Tickets are still on sale, but are in high demand, starting at $386 on StubHub (or $313 for standing room only), and climbing into the $10,000+ range for the best seats.
Kickoff is 8:20 p.m. ET and will be broadcast live on NBC/Peacock. You can also follow our live text feed (brought to you by yours truly) right here on Diario AS USA.
