Dallas (who is playing in the 4:15 P.M. game WFXT will air) is coached by former New England Patriots coach Bill Parcells, and their starting quarterback is former Patriot Drew Bledsoe.
It's the same reason why after Ray Bourque got traded away from the Boston Bruins, WCVB-5 in Boston got from ABC (the then-network-TV home of the NHL) as many Colorado Avalanche games as possible. Often, WCVB was the only ABC station east of the Mississippi to get a regional NHL game from the network featuring the Avs.
Nevertheless, I am surprised that the Giants game is not on WFXT. I expected that WFXT would have broadcast as many Giants' games as possible under the structure of the NFL network TV deals (i.e. when the local NFL team is playing at home, only that home game can be televised and no out-of-town games can go head-to-head on TV against the local team's home game, etc.)
