The Cowboys enter their traditional Thanksgiving Day game feeling like it’s Christmas. With a win on Thursday, Dallas can hold a 10-1 record for the first time in its history. It can also set up a showdown with the Green Bay Packers for NFC supremacy. The two one-loss teams meet next Thursday at Texas Stadium.

First, the Cowboys must deal with the New York Jets (2-8 overall, 3-6-1 against the point spread). Last week, the Jets upset the Steelers and will look to make it two in a row with Kellen Clemens at quarterback. New York has played on Thanksgiving twice, both times in Detroit and both times they lost, with the last defeat coming in 1985.

The Cowboys, who are 25-14 all-time on Thanksgiving Day, will see what Terrell Owens can do this time. Owens combined with Tony Romo on four touchdown passes in a 28-23 win over Washington in Week 11.
