It’s been a long and trying week for Cowboys Nation, as is usually the case after an unacceptable performance. The football world in general has dismissed the Cowboys’ five-game winning streak as inconsequential, crediting their blowout win over then 10-2 Philadelphia as nothing more than divisional warfare, and their win over the scrappy Seahawks as nothing special. The blowout loss to Buffalo on national television put Dallas back in the category of teams that cannot win games against good competition, just now with the caveat of when on the road.

Sunday afternoon brings a chance at redemption, in some ways. The Miami Dolphins also have a reputation of not being able to beat good competition, entering the game 0-3 against teams currently at or above .500. Unlike the Cowboys there’s no caveat where teams they’ve defeated had a positive record at the time, the Dolphins haven’t faced anyone sitting above that line and emerged victorious.

Mike McDaniels’ team is certainly capable, of course. With one of the league’s great skill position quartets of Tyreek Hill, Jalen Waddle, Raheem Mostert and De’Von Achane centered around speed, speed and more speed, they took back over the points-scored pinnacle from Dallas in Week 15. The defense under Vic Fangio is nothing to sneeze at now that Jalen Ramsey has returned.

It will be a formidable matchup when each team has possession, so there aren’t many downs the viewing public should miss. Want to stay in lock step with all of the action? Here’s how to watch, stream, gamble and enjoy the battle of two teams with Super Bowl dreams.

TV coverage maps, how to stream Cowboys-Eagles, plus 10 top prop bets

Are you one of the few who will be screwed by the regional coverage rules? If you’re in red, you get to move ahead. If you’re in blue, here’s what you’ll need to do. | From @KDDrummondNFL

It’s time. A month after crossing paths with the team that was at the time regarded as the NFL’s best and failing, the Dallas Cowboys find themselves in a similar situation. A Week 5 loss, embarrassing in every sense of the word, to the San Francisco 49ers sent the Cowboys tumbling down the respect-o-meter.

But Sunday’s Week 9 matchup against the 7-1 Philadelphia Eagles offers a redemption arc of epic proportions. A victory places the Cowboys in control of the division at the midpoint of the campaign. A loss doesn’t ruin their chances, but it does make things more tenuous.

This game against Philly isn’t a must win. They don’t exist until late in the season, no matter what the media tells you. It will, however, say a lot about where Dallas is as a team right now.

Dallas losing this game doesn’t crush their division, or their No. 1 seed hopes. It does make them dependent on other things happening, but they could lose and realistically still be in position when they host the Eagles at AT&T Stadium in just over a month.

It will be much better to win, of course, and if you want to watch but aren’t sure how, or want some unsolicited advice on potential wagers for the game, you’ve come to the right place.
