Giants vs Cowboys live stream: how to watch NFL Thanksgiving football online and on TV from anywhere today
Cowboys just leapfrogged the Giants in the NFC East standings
This Thanksgiving, let's show some gratitude to the NFC East, which is dishing up more than its fair share of excellence so far this season. The New York Giants face the Dallas Cowboys today in a game that was always going to have major playoff implications, but with Dallas leapfrogging New York this past weekend, things have been amped up even further. It's pouring down in Dallas, and you can read on as we explain how to watch a Giants vs Cowboys live stream online from anywhere.

Both teams are 7-3, but the Cowboys currently own the tiebreaker thanks to their 23–16 victory over the Giants in September. America's Team ran all over the G-Men on that occasion and the Giants faithful have every reason to fear a repeat.
Everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong during their 31-18 defeat to the Lions over the weekend, and then some. Daniel Jones threw two interceptions that were both punished, Saquon Barkley ran out of steam, and red-hot rookie receiver Wan'Dale Robinson and a roll call of starters picked up injuries — including cornerback Fabian Moreau, right tackle Tyre Phillips, and safety Jason Pinnock.
With four consecutive divisional matchups on the cards, this could hardly have happened at a worse time, but all Brian Daboll's men can do today is show fight. The Cowboys are being spoken of as the No.2 team in the NFC after their phenomenal 40-3 victory over a top-notch Vikings team, in which running back Tony Pollard and linebacker Micah Parsons looked frighteningly good.
The outcome of this clash could also decide who gets Odell Beckham Jr.’s signature, and you can follow our guide on how to watch a Giants vs Cowboys live stream wherever you are.

How to watch Giants vs Cowboys from outside your country
If you've mismatched a holiday, or you're away on business, and you want to watch your country's coverage from abroad, then you'll need to use a VPN. This will help you dial in to a location back in your home country to avoid geo-blocks and regain access to the content and services you already pay for back home.
A VPN is generally perfect for this, as it allows you to change your IP address, so you appear to be in an entirely different location when the big game is on.
