Question:
Coming off their Sunday night divisional road win over the Eagles, the Cowboys flew to Giants Stadium for an NFC East rematch with the New York Giants. In the first quarter, Dallas shot first as QB Tony Romo completed a 15-yard TD pass to TE Tony Curtis. Afterwards, the Giants responded with QB Eli Manning completing an 8-yard TD pass to TE Jeremy Shockey. In the second quarter, the Cowboys retook the lead as rookie kicker Nick Folk got a 44-yard field goal, yet New York answered with RB Reuben Droughns getting a 1-yard TD run. Dallas reclaimed the lead with Romo completing a 20-yard TD pass to WR Patrick Crayton. However, due to a taunting penalty on LB Kevin Burnett, the Giants were given great field position to get some points prior to halftime. The Cowboys held New York to a 40-yard Lawrence Tynes field goal. In the third quarter, Dallas regained the lead with Romo completing a 25-yard TD pass to WR Terrell Owens for the only score of the period. In the fourth quarter, the Giants only got a 26-yard field goal from Tynes. Afterwards, the Cowboys completed the season-sweep with Romo and Owens hooking up again on a 50-yard TD pass. This would mark the first time since their Super Bowl year of 1995 that the Cowboys began a season at 8-1, and only the third time in franchise history that Dallas began at 8-1; the other times were during the 1977 season, and the 1983 season. The Cowboys won the Super Bowl in 1977 and 1995, but lost the wildcard game to the Los Angeles Rams in 1983. For their season-sweep over New York, Dallas had scored a total of 76 points in the two meetings. DT Tank Johnson, in his first game with the Cowboys (along with the first game off of his suspension), recorded 3 tackles and a sack.

Which team did the Eagles play the prior week?

Answer:
Cowboys

Question:
Coming off their last-second road loss to the Raiders, the Browns went home for an AFC North duel with the Baltimore Ravens, as RB Jamal Lewis would go up against his former team. In the first quarter, Cleveland got off to a surprisingly fast start with QB Derek Anderson (another former Raven) completed a 2-yard TD pass to WR Joe Jurevicius. Immediately after the defense intercepted QB Steve McNair, the Browns cashed in with Anderson completing a 78-yard TD pass to WR Braylon Edwards. In the second quarter, Baltimore would get on the board with kicker Matt Stover getting a 21-yard field goal. Cleveland would answer kicker Phil Dawson nailing a 41-yard field goal, along with Lewis getting a 1-yard TD run. In the third quarter, the Browns increased its lead with Dawson kicking a 20-yard field goal for the only score of the period. In the fourth quarter, the Ravens tried to mount a comeback with McNair completing a 4-yard TD pass to TE Quinn Sypniewski. Cleveland's defense held on to win. For his performance in his team's return game, including a 99-yard kick return for a touchdown against the Raiders, kick returner Josh Cribbs was named the AFC's Special Teams Player of the Month for the month of September. Cribbs led all return men with 549 punt and kick return yards in the month and had three returns of 30yards or more.
