The NFL season begins this week with a high profile NFC East matchup on Sunday Night Football. The Dallas Cowboys travel to face the New York Giants in a recurring rivalry game to kick off their schedules.
This game marks the eighth time in 15 seasons that these two teams have met in Week 1. The league consistently places the Cowboys in primetime television slots due to their massive national popularity.
Over the last 17 seasons Dallas has participated in either the Kickoff Game or Sunday Night Football opener 12 times. In fact the Cowboys have opened their campaign in the standard Sunday afternoon slot only once in 25 years.
Both franchises aim to build momentum early with a crucial divisional victory in the season opener.
