Watch New York Giants Vs. Dallas Cowboys Live Stream: Start Time, Preview For NFL Week 1 NFC East Showdown

Two of the longest-running NFL rivals, the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys, square off for the 109th time in their histories — a series going back 56 years — in a Week 1 game that will stream live Sunday as the NFC East foes are both looking to bounce back from disappointing seasons in 2015.

The Cowboys have historically had the better of the matchup, winning 62 games to 44 for the Giants — with two games ending in ties, including their first-ever matchup on December 4, 1960.

New York has faced Dallas only one time in the postseason, with the Giants winning that January 13, 2008, divisional playoff game 21-17.

The Giants quarterback in that victory is still the team’s signal caller today, as 35-year-old Eli Manning opens his 13th season under center for the team since the San Diego Chargers selected Manning out of Ole Miss with the first overall draft pick in 2004. The Chargers then promptly traded him to the Giants for quarterback Philip Rivers and three draft picks, after the younger brother of future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning refused to sign with San Diego.

But while the Giants will be going with one if the NFL’s elite, veteran quarterbacks in two-time Super Bowl winner Manning, Dallas lost their own veteran starter, Tony Romo, to a preseason injury.

As a result, the Cowboys will send 23-year-old rookie Dak Prescott — their fourth-round 2016 draft pick out of Mississippi State — into battle as they attempt to launch their drive to get back to the playoffs after a disheartening 4-12 campaign in 2015.

Watch a preview of the Giants vs. Cowboys showdown with predictions from ESPN First Take duo Stephen A. Smith and Max Kellerman in the video below.

Kickoff is scheduled for 3:25 Central Time at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Sunday, September 11. That start time will be 4:25 p.m. Eastern, 1:25 p.m. Pacific.

The NFC East game will be televised by the Fox Network and will be available to stream live throughout most of the country. Areas shaded in purple on the map provided below by 506 Sports will receive a live stream of the Detroit Lions vs. Indianapolis Colts inter-conference game instead, while both games will be blacked out in the regions shaded in gray.

The Cowboys will rely heavily on another rookie, their first-round pick out of Ohio State, 21-year-old running back Ezekiel Elliot. The rookie will have the benefit of running behind an offensive line featuring three Pro Bowlers — but if the Giants can find a way to contain Elliot, they may be able to get their 2016 season off on a winning note under new coach Ben McAdoo after a third-place, 6-10 performance last year.
