The second week of the 2009 NFL Football season features some key matchups.
The Dallas Cowboys finally get to play a real game in their brand-new state of the art stadium when they host the New York Giants on Sunday Night. Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints, fresh off their opening 45-27 win over the Lions, travel to Philadelphia to play the Eagles.
Philadelphia will be without starting quarterback Donovan McNabb, who is out with cracked ribs. Also out for this week's game against Baltimore is San Diego Chargers star running back LaDainian Tomlinson, who injured his ankle during the Chargers' 24-20 victory last Monday night in Oakland.
Two other key games are divisional matchups featuring the Falcons playing host to the Carolina Panthers in the Georgia Dome while the Seattle Seahawks, who posted the only shut out last week, travel to San Francisco to face the 49ers, who surprised the host Arizona Cardinals, 20-16 in the opener.
One other intriguing game is the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Chicago Bears. Both teams are without star defensive players. The Steeelers do not have Troy Palomalu (knee sprain) and Chicago lost Brian Urlacher for the season with a wrist injury.
