There’s nothing left to talk about as the Philadelphia Eagles meet the Dallas Cowboys tonight on NBC’s Sunday Night Football, and we’ve got all the info on everything you need for coverage.

For the 115th time, the Philadelphia Eagles will meet the Dallas Cowboys to play a football game. This is one of the most documented rivalries in all of the NFL, and not even the debacle which was last week’s game on Sunday Night Football will prevent the fans of these two teams and the majority of the country from tuning in.

This game does feature some firsts. Head coach Doug Pederson is reacquainted with an old nemesis from his playing days, this time as a head coach. The Cowboys feature a rookie running back that you may have heard of, Ezekiel Elliott. This also marks the first time that both teams start a rookie at quarterback. Both the Cowboys’ Dak Prescott and the Eagles’ Carson Wentz have proven to be mature, solid selections by each team and capable of leading their respective franchises. Tonight could, quite possibly, be the beginning of a budding rivalry that we’ll witness for years to come.

The Birds come in a little banged up and will be missing a few important cogs, most notably defensive tackle Bennie Logan. He’ll be missed by a defensive line that will look to generate a pass rush. That won’t be easy as that running game is aided by arguably the best offensive line in football. If Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz is able to devise a plan to neutralize a running game that no one else has been able to neutralize, the Eagles may be in business.

Here’s all that you need to know for tonight’s game:

Date: Sunday, October 30th

Start Time: 8:30 PM

Location: Arlington, Texas

Venue: AT&T Stadium

TV: NBC

Radio Call: 94 WIP-FM

Live Stream: NBC Sports Live

Check out 94 WIP-FM for “The Kickoff Show” prior to the game and “The Postgame Show” once the game concludes. Also, follow the Inside The Iggles Twitter page as we’ll keep you updated while the action is going on. As far as the game goes, expect this one to be decided in the trenches. If the Eagles’ defense gets pushed around like they did in Washington, it could make for a long night. Still the guys in green have typically had the Cowboys number, especially in Arlington, and should do enough to get the “W” in this one.

Prediction: Eagles 27, Cowboys 21
