The Dallas Cowboys and the New Orleans Saints will match up for one of the most exciting games on the NFL schedule on Sunday night football in Week 10 and the two teams will play at the Superdome on NBC starting up at 8:30 PM and the game will have two division leaders going up against each other and could be one of the best with Tony Romo and Drew Brees.
The Cowboys know already that the Eagles and Giants won and the Saints now have to worry about the Carolina Panthers, as the NFC South now has a couple hot teams and with two games still to come against the team in a home and home later in the season, the division race sure could get interesting, including if the Cowboys defeat the Saints on Sunday night football on the road. The Saints have a very tough schedule in the second half of the season with the Cowboys first before the San Francisco 49ers and that will be a very anticipated matchup before two straight road games against the Atlanta Falcons and then the Seattle Seahawks in one of those great old playoff rematches and that game will be on Monday night football and will be a huge matchup for the two teams on national televison and could have playoff implications.

The New York Giants know they aren't a playoff contender right now and without some miracles along the way, they likely won't this season, but after winning two straight games to get away from being winless, the team has a chance to half their loss total with a game against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday in Week 10 at MetLife Stadium and it ended up with a win for the Giants, making the game against the Saints crucial for the Cowboys.
The Giants had no favors done for them as the Washington Redskins, Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles all won on Sunday and while the division title is still out of reach, the team can keep pace coming out of the bye, but to do that they must not overlook the Oakland Raiders. Yes, the team is just 3-5 on the season and gave up 49 points to the Eagles, but they also have some explosive talent with Terrelle Pryor at quarterback and the way the Giants have played is no reason to think they will turn it around this week. The team is giving up a ton of yards, but they have been much better lately against the run and in the past two weeks they have given up a combined 14 points after allowing over 27 in every game before that.
The Giants got their first win of the season against the Minnesota Vikings and while it was ugly it was good enough and now they are going on a stretch where they will play three home games and that includes a huge divisional matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. The Giants have to basically win every game the rest of the way to get back some respectability, but even more than that, they must win all three games against the NFC East to finish the season, or they literally have no chance to get back into things. The team already defeated the Eagles and lost to Dallas, but they have three more games left and two of those are against the Washington Redskins.
The team needs to go 2-1 over this next stretch at home and it includes the game against the Raiders and that is one they cannot let get away from them. After playing that stretch at home, the team hits the road for three of the next four, including at Washington and a west coast trip to play the Chargers, which is always fun for Eli in San Diego. The team then is home against the Seattle Seahawks for a tough game before playing on the road against the Detroit Lions and then they have Week 17 at home against the Washington Redskins. Either way, it all starts with the Oakland Raiders in Week 10 at home and the game will be on CBS starting up at 1:00 pm.
