An angry Jerry Jones is an unpredictable Jerry Jones. And that makes this Sunday Night Football matchup even more delicious.

"America 's Team" has plenty of issues to fix heading into Week 10 – namely, their struggling quarterback, Dak Prescott, Scott Linehan' s play – calling of offensive coordinator and their often – on – the – hot – seat head coach Jason Garrett.

The NFC East is still wide open, thanks to the plight of the New York Giants and the plaguing the first-place Washington Redskins. To say this is a must-win for the Cowboys, who are a game behind Philadelphia and two games behind the Skins, is an understatement. Securing this road will not be easy. The Eagles are 21st in the league in points per game (22.2) and 15th in total offense (366.9 yards per contest), but they're tough to beat at home. They're 17-5 since 2016 (including the playoffs) at Lincoln Financial Field. Meanwhile, the Cowboys are 0-4 on the road this season.

Jones said recently that he has no plans to make changes to his coaching staff. But it would be a massive meltdown against the rival defending Super Bowl champions – on national television – to get the owner's blood boiling. Dallas already in the midst of a two-game losing streak. One more defeat would drop Dallas to 3-6 before it gears up for matchups against the Falcons, Redskins and Saints. And mounting losses just might cost a coach his job.

The Seahawks (4-4) have been a little better than many expected them to be. And now they have a chance to go over against an NFC West rival coming off its first loss of the season. The Rams dropped to 8-1 after their spotlight defeated against the Saints last Sunday.

For obvious reasons, I expect the Rams to come out fired up. They're spending time on the Saints now being the NFC's best team, and for all the competitors in there, there's no way that's going to go over well. What's more, they'll be at home, and eager to get a taste of their mouths. That especially goes for the defense, which has not been as good as it would be, overall.

This one should be fun.
