A couple of days after Dallas poached Christian Parker from the Eagles’ coaching staff, Philly tried for a little revenge. The Eagles’ reportedly asked to interview Cowboys offensive coordinator Klayton Adams for the same job, but Dallas denied the request.

The Cowboys were able to block Philly’s access to Adams according to NFL rules for lateral moves among coaches. When a new team is offering a promotion, as Dallas did with Parker, the current employer cannot stop them. Parker was serving as the Eagles’ defensive backs coach and was still under contract for 2026, but the Cowboys made him their new defensive coordinator on Friday.

Because Philadelphia was only interested in Adams as their new OC, the same title he has in Dallas currently, the Cowboys were able block it.

Philly recently fired their previous OC, Kevin Patullo, after just one season. It’s no surprise that they’d have interest in Adams, who, in just his first year as the Cowboys’ OC, helped put together one of the NFL’s top-producing offenses in 2025.

Even if the Eagles were willing to give Adams play-calling duties, which Brian Schottenheimer held on to as head coach last year, that wouldn’t elevate the transaction. Whether or not it’s a lateral move is based entirely on the job title. So, unless Philly wants to fire Nick Sirianni, they can’t get to Adams this year.

Not only is Adams a rising star in the offensive coaching ranks, but his arrival coincided with a major uptick in Dak Prescott’s performance. This new braintrust of Schottenheimer, Adams, and Prescott worked very well last year and is worth preserving, especially as Dallas and Christian Parker focus on getting the defense back up to snuff.

It’s always fun to hand the Eagles a loss, even in the offseason. Just another fun week in one of the NFL’s best rivalries.

BTB Monday Discussion: Who do you want to win the Super Bowl?

Super Bowl LX is set. The Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots will do battle once more, a Super Bowl rematch that we saw 11 years ago reborn.

The AFC Championship Game was a bit of a snoozer on Sunday, although the weather obviously had a lot to do with that. On the NFC side of things we had a thriller all the way to the end that Seattle simply outlasted.

As Dallas Cowboys fans we have grown used to having to pick a side to root for in the Super Bowl. This particular one marks 30 in a row that have not featured the Cowboys which is always improbable to believe given that Dallas had appeared in 8 of the 30 prior to The Drought™ beginning.

Sometimes picking the Super Bowl is more about who you would tolerate more as opposed to who you are rooting for. Whatever the case we are curious – Who do you want to win the Super Bowl?

Let us know in the comments down below.
