For the first time this season, Cowboys and Giants fans wishing to watch their teams play will have to scan their TV channels for ESPN this week. Dallas vs. New York is the featured game on "Monday Night Football" in Week 9 with a kickoff time scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET.

In 2019, the Monday night game in a given week is rarely a premier matchup, but Cowboys vs. Giants always carries some intrigue even when these rivals aren't close in the NFC East standings. New York hopes to make things interesting, but Dallas has won five straight in this series and enters Monday night's game as a seven-point favorite, per Sportsbook Review.

Many eyes will be on the quarterbacks in this game with good reason. The Cowboys' Dak Prescott has 15 games with a passing touchdown and a rushing touchdown since entering NFL in 2016, most in league. The Giants' Daniel Jones recently joined Prescott, of all QBs, as the only rookie passers with two games 300-plus passing yards and 2-plus touchdown passes with no picks in NFL history.
