NFL Sunday Night Football this week will see a massive clash between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys. Even though both teams have negative records, both are still in the race for the division title in a lackluster NFC East. The game has a scheduled start time of 8.30 p.m. ET and takes place from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and can be watched on TV on the NBC network or online through NBC live stream via the link below.
The Eagles come into today's clash on 3-4 and have high hopes of claiming the win to get back to .500 and apply pressure on the New York Giants at the top of the NFC East.
However, the Cowboys will be desperate to win today in front of their home fans. They started the season on 2-0 but have since lost five straight games to fall back to 2-5 and are now facing the abyss if they cannot stop this slide quick.
A win here today would bring them level with the Eagles and give them confidence to maybe put together a few straight wins to get their season back on track.
The first half of the season has not been enjoyable for the Cowboys as they have found themselves falling just short a number of times, and if the margins had been slightly more in their favor then they could easily be in a much better situation at the half way point in the season.
Falling to 2-6 today would be disastrous for the Cowboys, and in many people's minds it would signal the beginning of the end of the season for Dallas.
Earlier this week on Thursday Night Football, the Cincinnati Bengals moved to 8-0 with ease as they demolished a hapless Cleveland Browns team 31-10.
The Browns had been able to keep in touch with the mighty Bengals until the half way stage of the game, and being just 14-10 down after the second period had given their fans hope of an upset.
But the second half saw the Bengals wake up and in particular the final quarter they piled on the pain for the Browns to hand them their seventh defeat of the season so far.
The Thursday Night Football game saw quarterback Andy Dalton throw three touchdown passes to Tyler Eifert as the Browns had no answer to their connection.
Moving to 8-0 sets a new franchise record for the Bengals; it is the first time they have ever been on 8-0 in their history, and is also their longest ever winning streak within a single season.
As well as Dalton and the Bengals offense piling on the pain for the Browns, the Cincinnati defense also played their part by completely shutting down Cleveland in the second half, allowing them just 32 yards and two first downs in total.
Dalton finished on 21 of 27 for 234 yards, and Eifert's three touchdowns move him to nine in total for the season so far, which also ties him for the franchise record for a tight end.
