How to watch NFL football: Week 3

Another fantastic week of NFL matchups takes center stage as multiple undefeated teams look to keep their winning streaks alive in Week 3.

On the flip side, several winless teams hit the field this weekend and know they can’t afford to fall in a 0-3 hole to start the season. 

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

America’s Game of the Week

After getting humiliated by the Detroit Lions last week, the Chicago Bears face another tough test when the Dallas Cowboys visit Soldier Field on Sunday.

It’s also a reunion game for new Cowboys defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, who was the Bears former head coach replaced by Ben Johnson.

Last Sunday, Dallas (1-1) survived against the New York Giants, winning an overtime thriller despite the Cowboys' defense surrendering 37 points and over 400 total yards to Giants QB Russell Wilson and the offense.

Dak Prescott and the Cowboys' offense look formidable, but the defensive unit has been the flaw of this team earlier on.

Chicago (0-2) is off to a rough start in the Ben Johnson era after the team surrendered 52 points to the Detroit Lions. Bears quarterback Caleb Williams struggled in last week’s loss and will have to elevate his play to enhance his team’s chances of winning. 

Williams and his receiving unit featuring Rome Odunze and DJ Moore should have some opportunities for vertical passing plays against a vulnerable Cowboys secondary that was torched last weekend by Giants QB Russell Wilson and his receiving core.

However, the Bears' defense struggled mightily in the first two weeks and Prescott, along with Cowboys receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, may find ways to exploit Chicago’s secondary. 

Chicago is favored at home over the Cowboys, according to FOX Sports. 

The action begins on Sunday, Sept. 21 at 4:25 p.m. ET and you can stream the game live on FOX One.
