The Dallas Cowboys will host what is one of the most important game remaining in their 2014 NFL regular season as they face main NFC East rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles on Thanksgiving Day 2014.

Today's big NFC East match up will start at 4.30 p.m. EDT and will be broadcast on the Fox TV network. The game can also be watched online through live stream - free for subscribers - via the link provided below.

Sole possession of the top spot in the NFC East is on the line today between the Eagles and Cowboys, who both come into today's game on 8-3.

This will be the first of two games between these teams in the space of 18 days, as they meet again on December 14 - in that instance the game will be in Philadelphia.

So far the Eagles are undefeated in the division and that's a record they will want to keep in tact with another win. That perfect division record so far gives the Eagles the slight edge against the Cowboys. The Eagles come into the game on 2-0 in the NFC East, where as the Cowboys are 2-1 having lost to the Washington Redskins on Oct. 27.

Eagles defensive end Fletcher Cox has said ahead of the game: "It's going to be a great game. I'm really excited, man. I'm looking forward to it. We're ready to roll. We're ready for Thursday."

Philadelphia should be feeling better now having made up somewhat for their recent blowout loss to the Green Bay Packers with a 43-24 win over the Tennessee Titans last week.

Linebacker Trent Cole has said, "We had to stay focused on Tennessee all week. That was the next game. And we were coming off a bad game. So there was no reason to think about Dallas. But now we can. Now, it's all about Dallas. If you can't get excited for this game, you shouldn't be playing football."
