Well now, this is more like it! Almost every prime-time game this season has been beyond terrible, between high-profile but awful teams. This game is quite different, as it's between two very good teams that most people didn't expect to be any good at all,

Skip Bayless has a new show on Fox Sports 1, and there's been a promo that has been running for it since the beginning of the season. In it, Skip predicts that Ezekiel Elliott will run wild on the league and the Cowboys will "feast on the NFC Least." Everything in that ad, outside of "Romo stays healthy", has come true. Skip Bayless is an idiot, but he's been right about Dallas this year.

Now the 'Boys face their toughest challenge in the Eagles, who have been the talk of the league with the success of their rookie quarterback, Carson Wentz. Let's all laugh at the Browns for not taking him.

So watch along with us tonight at 5:30 PM Pacific on NBC, which you can stream here.
