NBC Previews Sunday Night Football For Week 13 of the 2012 NFL Season

In primetime, NBC airs the Philadelphia Eagles-Dallas Cowboys game live from the Jerry Jones World of Extravagance in Arlington, TX. NBC and the NFL chose to keep the game in the primetime slot despite Philadelphia’s pitiful record and Dallas’ shaky appearances on Sunday Night Football.

The ratings for Cowboys games are usually through the roof and most likely, this game will be no exception.

Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth will have the call high above the field. Michele Tafoya will roam the sidelines during the game.

Football Night in America precedes the game at 7 p.m. on NBC with Bob Costas and Hines Ward from Arlington, Dan Patrick, Tony Dungy and Rodney Harrison will be in New York.

Here’s NBC’s preview.

NEW YORK – November 29, 2012 – Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys (5-6) look to climb back in to the playoff picture in the NFC as they host the Philadelphia Eagles (3-8) on Sunday Night Football. Coverage begins with Football Night in America at 7 p.m. ET on NBC.

Calling Eagles-Cowboys is six-time Emmy Award-winner Al Michaels (play-by-play), in his 27th season as the voice of the NFL’s premier primetime package; 13-time Emmy Award-winner Cris Collinsworth, who has won the Emmy for Outstanding Event Analyst in each of his three seasons in the Sunday Night Football booth; and sideline reporter Michele Tafoya, who, last year in her first season with SNF, won the inaugural Emmy Award for Outstanding Sports Reporter.

Football Night in America is hosted by 24-time Emmy Award-winner Bob Costas, who will report from Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Costas will be joined on site by Michaels, Collinsworth and Hines Ward, the former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver and Super Bowl MVP.

Dan Patrick co-hosts Football Night from NBC’s Studio 8G at 30 Rockefeller Plaza. Patrick is joined by Super Bowl-winning head coach Tony Dungy, two-time Super Bowl winner Rodney Harrison, Peter King of Sports Illustrated, and Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk on NBC Sports Network and NBCSports.com.
