Cowboys vs 49ers time, location, streaming, odds and more: Everything to know

Games don't come much bigger than the Dallas Cowboys-San Francisco 49ers showdown on Sunday Night Football in Week 5. The longtime NFC rivals have a combined record of 7-1 and hold the second- and third-highest point differentials in the league, respectively, after four games.

Though it's only Week 5, this matchup will go a long way towards determining the pecking order in the top-heavy NFC. With a win, the Cowboys would improve to 4-1, equaling their record with the 49ers and keeping pace with the 4-0 Eagles, who play the 2-2 LA Rams this weekend.

With a loss, Dallas would drop to 3-2, putting them two games behind the 49ers and Eagles, their foremost competition for the NFC's No. 1 seed. We won't go as far as to call Sunday a must-win, but a loss would (significantly) worsen the Cowboys chances of having home-field advantage in the playoffs.

Let's jump into all of the information fans need to know about the game.
