Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants ON NBC's SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL

NBC's SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL -- primetime television's No. 1 show -- continues this week with a classic NFC East clash, when Dak Prescott and the NFL-best 11-1 Dallas Cowboys travel to MetLife Stadium to face Eli Manning and the 8-4 New York Giants. Coverage begins with FOOTBALL NIGHT IN AMERICA this Sunday, Dec. 11, at 7 p.m. ET on NBC.

Cowboys-Giants on NBC's SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL and tomorrow's Raiders-Chiefs matchup on NBC's Thursday Night Football represent the most prolific pair of primetime matchups ever in an NFL week. For the first time, two night games in a single NFL weekend each feature opponents combining for at least a 19-5 record (.792). Click here for quotes from Cris Collinsworth and Tony Dungy on both matchups.

Led by the rookie tandem of QB Dak Prescott and RB Ezekiel Elliott, the Cowboys are riding a franchise-record 11-game winning streak, following their 20-19 season-opening loss at home to the Giants in Week 1. Dallas is coming off a 17-15 win against the VIKINGS in Minnesota on Thursday Night Football, and became the first team to clinch a playoff berth following Washington's Week 13 loss.

Prescott has thrown for 19 touchdowns with only two interceptions this season, and became the first rookie to throw for a least one touchdown and no interceptions in five consecutive games. Elliott leads the NFL in rushing yards (1,285) and WR Dez Bryant has four touchdown catches in his last four games.

New York looks to bounce back from a 24-14 loss to the Steelers in Pittsburgh last week. Eli Manning has thrown for nine touchdowns and just one interception in his last five home games against the Cowboys. WR Odell Beckham Jr. boasts eight touchdown catches in his last eight games, while rookie WR Sterling Shepard has TD catches in four consecutive games.

The Giants have won the previous two matchups in the rivalry with the Cowboys, following five consecutive wins by Dallas from 2013-15. Five of the last six games between the two teams have been decided by seven points or less.

Calling Cowboys-Giants are seven-time Emmy Award-winner Al Michaels (play-by-play), in his record 31st season as THE VOICE of the NFL's premier primetime package; 16-time Emmy Award-winner Cris Collinsworth; and two-time Emmy Award-winning sideline reporter Michele Tafoya.

NBC's coverage of SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL is led by Emmy Award-winning producer Fred Gaudelli and Emmy Award-winning director Drew Esocoff.

Football Night in America, the most-watched weekly studio show in sports, is hosted Bob Costas, who will report on-site from MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., and Dan Patrick, who will host from NBC Sports Group's International Broadcast Center in Stamford, Conn. Patrick is joined by Hall of Fame head coach Tony Dungy, two-time SUPER BOWL champion Rodney Harrison, and Mike Florio of NBC Sports' ProFootballTalk. Kathryn Tappen will report from Lambeau Field in Green Bay on the Seahawks-Packers game.

"THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL" CONTINUES TOMORROW ON NBC

The only network with two primetime NFL packages, NBC continues its coverage of Thursday Night Football this Thursday, December 8, with an AFC West first-place showdown, when Derek Carr and the AFC-leading Oakland Raiders (10-2) host Alex Smith and the Kansas City Chiefs (9-3) at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. Coverage starts at 7:30 p.m. ET with Football Night in Kansas City on NBC.

Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth will call Raiders-Chiefs, joined by sideline reporter Heather Cox. Mike Tirico will serve as the host of the Football Night in Kansas City pregame show from Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., joined on-site by Tony Dungy and Rodney Harrison.
