MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – The Minnesota Vikings host the Houston Texans on Sunday, a Week 3 matchup between two undefeated teams.

The Vikings-Texans matchup is just one of many interesting matchups in Week 3. Here’s a look at the NFL schedule and how to watch the games.

Week 3 Preview

We’re already in Week 3 of the NFL season, with the Chiefs, Texans and Lions leading the FOX Sports Power Rankings for the week.

Week 3 will feature key games between 2-0 teams, including the Texans against the Vikings and the Chargers against the Steelers. One of the best matchups will be the USA game of the week: the winless Ravens visit the inconsistent Cowboys.

Here’s a look at the NFL schedule and how to stream NFL games on FOX.

American Game of the Week

Baltimore travels to Dallas for a matchup between two talented teams with serious reserves. The Ravens nearly beat the Chiefs in Week 1, then lost to the Raiders on a field goal with 27 seconds left.

For a team that could easily go 2-0, avoiding an 0-3 start will be crucial. Only six teams since 1979 have made the playoffs after starting 0-3, including just one since 2000. No Super Bowl champion has ever started 0-3.

“We’ve got to get our mojo back,” quarterback Lamar Jackson said after the Ravens’ loss Sunday afternoon. “We’ve got to get it back and do what we do, because we’re not at all.”

Dallas, meanwhile, embarrassed Cleveland in Week 1, but then suffered a 44-19 loss to the Saints. The Cowboys had won 16 straight regular-season home games before being dominated by New Orleans.

“It’s adversity. You can’t be afraid,” Cowboys’ Micah Parsons said. “I’m glad we can see tomorrow because I think there’s a lot of things to figure out.”
