The season rolls on with another slate of great matchups for Week 6. With the Kansas City Chiefs and the Minnesota Vikings remaining undefeated and on bye weeks, they earned another week on top of the FOX Sports’ power rankings.

But there are other teams in action Sunday trying to close the gap on the Chiefs and Vikings to establish themselves as contenders for the postseason. 

Here’s a look at the NFL schedule and how to stream NFL games on FOX.

America’s Game of the Week

Detroit travels to Dallas in a rematch of last year’s entertaining game which featured a controversial call that overturned a two-point conversion play by the Lions that would have given them the lead. The Cowboys went on to win that game.

The Cowboys enter Sunday’s game coming off a huge primetime win over the Pittsburgh Steelers last weekend, and they want to keep the momentum going against a Lions squad they have beaten in their last six head-to-head games. 

Detroit is one of the top rushing teams in the NFL at 151.3 yards per game and will try to exploit a Cowboys defense that struggles at stopping the run, giving up 135 yards on the ground per game, per FOX Sports

But the Cowboys' offense has a strong passing game, averaging 271.6 yards a game, and quarterback Dak Prescott and Pro Bowl wide receiver Ceedee Lamb will be in attack mode against a Lions defense that is susceptible to the pass, surrendering 258.3 passing yards a game. 

However, Lions quarterback Jared Goff has plenty of weapons at his disposal to pressure Dallas’ defense, including running backs David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs and Pro Bowl wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown.
