Cowboys-Eagles rematch will be on next Saturday night

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on January 3, 2010 10:36 PM ET

NBC got the Eagles-Cowboys game after all, just a week later.

And this one will mean a lot more.

In a move that runs contrary to many reports we've seen, the Cowboys and Eagles will face off in Dallas next Saturday night at 8 ET on NBC. The Jets or Texans (Okay, the Jets) will face the Bengals at 4:30 on Saturday to kick off Wild Card Saturday on NBC.

PFT will have you covered all day, with a few surprises thrown in.

The Ravens-Patriots will play at 1ET Sunday on CBS, while the Packers-Cardinals will be the second game of the afternoon on Fox.

The Jets, currently leading 30-0, finally get a bad break after two straight weeks of great luck. They have to turn around and play the first game on the road next week after playing the last game this week.

    • I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move 
    • While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen. 
    • Taylor Moton also slipped and missed his block entirely  The oline”s performance was less than stellar in the 4th qtr
