3. Dallas Cowboys at Los Angeles Rams, Week 5, 4:25 PM ET
The team that everyone is chasing is the reigning super bowl champion, Los Angeles Rams. The Cowboys will get their crack at them in Week 5 on FOX. This will be America’s Game of the Week and should be a huge test against the NFC’s best.
Matthew Stafford and Super Bowl MVP Cooper Kupp give the Rams one of the best QB-WR duos in the NFL. Trevon Diggs will have his hands full this year with some of the tough opposing receivers the Cowboys will be facing. This is clearly one of those tough matchups.

The last time the Cowboys played the Rams was on opening night of the 2020 season, which was in LA and a loss for Dallas. But, this Rams team is a lot better than their 2020 team. So America’s Team will have to play their best to get a victory.
CeeDee Lamb vs. Jalen Ramsey, Micah Parsons vs. Cam Akers, and Zack Martin vs. Aaron Donald are only a few of the must-see matchups in this game. Hopefully, Michael Gallup will be fully recovered by Week 5 so he can play in this game because the Cowboys will certainly need him.
