Clearly, what America needs this holiday season is more Eagles football in prime time.

The NFL just announced there would be no flex-schedule changes to the Week 13 television lineup, meaning the Eagles-Cowboys game will remain on Sunday Night Football as previously scheduled.

This follows an eagerly anticipated Monday Night Football matchup this week, which pairs the 3-7 Eagles with the 2-8 Panthers (the winner gets to keep Jon Gruden).

While there might be more competitive games in Week 13, the combination of market size and storylines (that’s not a Yule Log kids, it’s a dumpster fire), means all eyes will be on the NFC East.
