That's right, it's the Hank Hill Bowl (officially the Governer's Cup), pitting the Dallas Cowboys against the Houston Texans. The Texans' first-ever game was a Sunday Nighter against the Cowboys, which they won 19-10. Since then, though, the Cowboys have won all regular-season meetings. It's Deshaun vs. Dak, Nuk vs. Zeke, and Watt vs. whoever is comparable on the Cowboys!

Yes. There's always the rare occurrence of a late game running long, and the NFL doesn't want that to go head-to-head with SNF.

So did NBC sign a deal with the Cowboys like they did ND because I swear they are the only team I've seen on Sunday night football.

If we start at 8 we'd have to cut out whoever the hell that pop singer is that is supposed to appeal to the demographic that the NFL will never appeal to.

NBC is always on the NFC East's dick during the early season schedule before Flex scheduling kicks in.
The same is true for NBC's NHL coverage.
