Featured matchups

Week 8 is stacked with heavyweight matchups and headline storylines that will keep fans on the edge of their seats.

Thursday Night Football kicks off with a showdown between the Vikings and Chargers, rolls into Sunday when the Eagles and Giants rekindle their fierce divisional rivalry, and wraps up on Monday as the Commanders face Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs.

But the one that takes center stage as our featured matchup?

Dallas Cowboys @  Denver Broncos

This clash has the makings of a classic, as the free-scoring Cowboys' offense, led by Comeback Player of the Year candidate Dak Prescott, visits Mile High to take on one of the league's elite defenses.

Prescott will lean on his dynamic duo of CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens out wide, with touchdown machine Jake Ferguson at TE patrolling the middle, and a rejuvenated Javonte Williams adding balance in the backfield.

Charged with stopping that offense is a superb Denver defense, boasting Defensive Player of the Year candidate Nik Bonitto and last year’s winner, shutdown corner Patrick Surtain.

On offense, Broncos quarterback Bo Nix rides into this one with momentum from the Giants win, backed by weapons like Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims, Evan Engram, and a strong rushing attack led by J.K. Dobbins.

That group faces a Dallas defense still trying to find its footing in the post-Micah Parsons era. There’s optimism, though, with rookie linebacker Shemar Turner off to a fast start and giving Dallas a reason to believe they can compete.

Potent offense vs suffocating defense. Star-studded rosters on both sidelines. Playoff implications at stake for each team. This is a game you absolutely must watch.
