NFL Games on Christmas Day
Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles
The Dallas Cowboys will take on the Philadelphia Eagles on Christmas Day in a game that could have major implications for the NFC East standings. The Cowboys currently sit atop the division with a 10-4 record, but the Eagles are right behind them with a 9-5 record. A win by the Eagles would give them a split of the season series and put them in first place in the division, while a win by the Cowboys would give them a sweep of the season series and put them in firm control of the division.
Los Angeles Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs
The Chargers and Chiefs will meet on Christmas day in Arrowhead Stadium for an AFC West showdown. Both teams are currently 9-3 and are vying for the division title. The winner of this game will most likely secure the division title, while the loser will likely be forced to settle for a Wild Card spot.
This will be the third meeting between these two teams this season, with each team winning one game. In their first meeting, the Chargers won 38-28 in Los Angeles. In their second meeting, the Chiefs won 27-24 in Kansas City.

The AFL plays a proprietary code known as arena football on a smaller field than American or Canadian football, typically indoors, resulting in a faster-paced and higher-scoring game. The sport was invented in the early 1980s and patented by Foster, who founded the Arena Football League in 1987.
