The Cowboys will face the Eagles in the second game of ESPN's "Monday Night Football: Doubleheader Saturday" in Week 18.
Both teams have already clinched playoff spots. The Cowboys take the NFC fourth seed and the Eagles take the NFC seventh seed heading into the matchup. If the Cowboys win on Saturday night, and the Buccaneers, the Cardinals and the Rams lose on Sunday, it would push the Cowboys into the second seed. Regardless, they will not fall below the fourth seed since they won the NFC East.
The Eagles sit at the seventh seed even though the sixth seed has yet to be decided for the NFC side of the playoff seedings. The Eagles could move to the sixth spot if the 49ers lose to the Rams and the Saints beat the Falcons, meaning the Saints would jump into the playoff picture at the seventh seed.
The "Sunday Night Football" matchup in Week 16 is a divisional rivalry game that could decide the winner of the NFC East.Dallas is hosting the Washington Football Team and can potentially kill two birds with one stone. They could win to clinch the NFC East while giving Washington its ninth loss, which would, at the very least, make the Football Team long shots to make the postseason.

Jalen Hurts will sit out for the game, including various other Eagles starters, to rest up for the playoffs.
The Cowboys beat the Eagles 41-21 in their earlier meeting this season. The Cowboys opened as seven-point favorites, according to DraftKings Sportsbook.

With the NFL playoff bracket for 2022 set, here is the entire postseason game schedule complete with TV channels for all playoff games, live stream info and more.The path to the postseason in Week 18 was wild. The Colts, who were widely expected to earn one of the two Wild Card berths that had yet to be clinched, were defeated by the Jaguars. That knocked them out of the AFC playoff picture while opening the door for the Steelers to make it in after their win over the Ravens. So long as the Chargers and Raiders don't tie on "Sunday Night Football", the Steelers will go to the postseason in what is presumed to be Ben Roethlisberger's final season.
