The Dallas Cowboys will host the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday in Week 3 of the NFL 2015 regular season. This will be an intriguing encounter after both teams won their opening two games of the season. But something must give today and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top of this one. The game will take place from the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and has a start time of 1 p.m. ET. The game can be watched on TV on the Fox network, or online through live stream via the link below.

Both of these teams will be riding high with confidence having posted 2-0 starts to the season, however, for the Cowboys at least, those two wins have come at a high price.

Dallas' star quarterback, Tony Romo, as well as wide received, Dez Bryant, have suffered injuries over the opening two weeks of the season, and that could seriously undermine the Cowboys season as they move forwards.

Without two of their best players in Romo and Bryant, many are questioning how potent their attack will be today. The Cowboys' defense will have to help carry the burden and shut down the Falcons' offense to give their weakened offense a chance. So far Dallas' defense has ranked an impressive third in the league through the opening two weeks, and last week they completely shut down the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Cowboys will need more of the same this week if they are to claim a third straight win of the season against a strong Falcons team.

Week 3 is already crunch time for a number of NFL teams. Earlier this week on NFL Thursday Night Football, the New York Giants faced a massive game against the Washington Redskins. The Giants were 0-2 after their opening two games, and they knew if they slipped to 0-3 their season was almost guaranteed to be over before it had even got going.

The 1-1 Washington Redskins were hoping to move to 2-1 to compete with the NFC East division leading Dallas Cowboys, and at the same time all but eliminate one of their main rivals from contention for the postseason.

But when the push came to shove the Giants showed that they are still alive and kicking. New York came out of the blocks fast, building a 12-0 lead after the first quarter, and it was a lead they would refuse to give up despite some strong pressure from the Redskins in the fourth.

The Giants had lost their opening two games after getting themselves into winning positions and some must have thought they were heading the same way on Thursday. However, they finally held on to a second half lead and clinched a 32-21 win, with the highlight being a 30 yard Odell Beckham Jr touchdown catch.

The Redskins must have seen how the Giants collapsed under pressure in the fourth quarter against the Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Falcons in Weeks 1 and 2. But even though the Redskins pushed hard in the fourth, scoring 15 points in the final quarter, the Giants responded to the pressure and recorded 14 points themselves to keep themselves in front.
