The NFL consistently establishes new viewership records each week, and the Dallas Cowboys have once again contributed to setting the latest of these records.

The Cowboys have earned the moniker "America's Team" for a good reason, and they solidified their claim to that title on Sunday. As reported by Fox Sports PR, the Dallas Cowboys' away game against the Philadelphia Eagles attracted an impressive viewership of over 27.1 million on Sunday. This marked the highest viewership for any NFL broadcast this season and the most-watched telecast since Super Bowl 57 in February.

The Cowboys also secured the second-highest-rated game of the season when they faced the New York Jets in Week 2. Every Cowboys game this season has garnered a viewership of at least 19 million, except for their Week 3 defeat against the Arizona Cardinals.

You don't need to be a detective to understand why Sunday's game attracted a large viewership. Dallas and Philadelphia represent significant markets, and their respective teams rank among the NFL's most popular. Additionally, it's a high-stakes rivalry game that has frequently played a pivotal role in determining the NFC East champion in recent years.

Furthermore, the appeal of Sunday's game was heightened by the fact that it evolved into an instant classic. The two teams engaged in a seesaw battle throughout the entire match, delivering an exhilarating viewing experience. Dallas came agonizingly close to securing a victory in the closing moments, but Philadelphia's goal-line stand secured a narrow win.

As the Cowboys prepare to host the New York Giants this coming Sunday, a game that attracted more than 20 million viewers in Week 1, Dallas is set to capture the attention of a considerable audience once more.
