The Dallas Cowboys welcome the San Francisco 49ers in NFL Week 15
The Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers will meet on Sunday in a battle with plenty of historical significance. The first game between the two teams was in 1960, and the 49ers beat the Cowboys 26-14. Dallas has won five out of the last six games against San Francisco. The Cowboys lead the overall series 18-17-1.
Both the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers are probably ready to have the 2020 NFL Season over. The Cowboys have struggled all year long, and they lost their starting quarterback to a season-ending injury. Likewise, the 49ers have suffered a number of injuries to key offensive and defensive players. Both teams will probably be sitting at home for the playoffs this year.
As a result, this game between the Cowboys and 49ers will have a different feel to it. Sunday won't offer a battle between playoff contenders. Instead, it'll be a clash between two teams that are desperate for any positive momentum they can find.
