The Dallas Cowboys face the Oakland Raiders on Sunday, Dec. 17 in NFL Week 15 of the 2017 season. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Considering one team went 13-3 and the other was 12-4 in 2016, this game seemed like it would be much more anticipated when first announced. Instead, the 7-6 Dallas Cowboys and 6-7 Oakland Raiders are trying to find a way to sneak into the post season with a final season push.
Oakland is still alive in the AFC West, which is led by the Chargers and Chiefs who sit at 7-6. They’re not inspiring a ton of confidence they can get it done thanks to their inconsistent play this season. They’re also in trouble in this one as they will be without starting receiver Amari Cooper and defensive end Mario Edwards Jr.
Dallas meanwhile is close to full strength. They enter this one relatively healthy, with their big absence being running back Ezekiel Elliott, who is serving the final game of his six-game suspension. At 7-6, they’re still outside looking in of the playoff picture, but they have a shot to win out and see a few things fall their way.
This game will be big if either team is serious about getting into the playoffs, making it a must-watch. If you’re unable to see it on television, there’s always NFL Sunday Ticket, or NBC Sports Stream for streaming services or Game Pass for replays.
