1. Eagles vs. Cowboys

Is it really that much of a surprise to see the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys listed as the top game for Sunday when looking at everything on the line?

If the Cowboys find a way to defeat the Eagles, Dallas will get to rest some of their key starters the following week, which would be huge when seeing the latest news surrounding Dak Prescott dealing with a shoulder injury.

But if Philadelphia finds a way to pull off the win despite all of the injuries the team has been dealing with in recent weeks, the winner of the NFC East will officially be decided in Week 17, as bad as that sounds for two teams that currently sit at 7-7 entering Week 16.

Dallas found a way to win with ease during the first meeting between these two teams back in October, but the circumstances are completely different this time around due to playoff implications.

As one of the top rivalries in the NFL, here’s to hoping the Eagles and Cowboys find a way to live up to the hype since there are plenty of fans who believe both teams deserve to be watching the playoffs from home instead of hosting a game on opening weekend.
