As the Dallas Cowboys and Seattle Seahawks both try to capture former glory, these are the key players in the Week 3 matchup for America’s Team.

The Dallas Cowboys are coming off their first win of the season by defeating the New York Giants last Sunday night, while the Seattle Seahawks lost their first two games of the season, but are hosting the Cowboys with the 12th Man on their side this Sunday.

This Week 3 showdown between the Cowboys and the Seahawks has a lot on the line for both teams because Seattle doesn’t want to fall to 0-3 to start the season, as they’ve lost to the Denver Broncos and the Chicago Bears to begin this year. The Cowboys in no way want to drop to under the .500 mark after three games, either.

Something will eventually have to give between these two franchises on Sunday as they are the “America’s Game of the Week” on FOX this Sunday afternoon, but to have a good showing, the Cowboys will have to have a handful of players really make a difference in this game.

Some of those players will be well-known names like the usual suspects, including Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott, but there are others who are must-watch players as well who might not be known as much on a national level, such as rookies and members of the front seven of the Cowboys defense.

The Cowboys are more than capable of winning this game, and that would keep their season going forward with a second consecutive win.

Now it is up to the Cowboys to not only win this game, but make a statement as to being one of the best teams in the NFC East and the NFC in general. With the game nearing, here are 5 players to watch in their road matchup against the Seahawks this Sunday.
