The Cowboys enter another year coming off a disappointing end to their last season. Dak Prescott is entering another contract year that will determine if he remains the star of America’s team, or has to find a new home in 2025.
Let’s take a look at the highlights of their schedule for the 2024-25 NFL season, plus their odds to win the NFC East, the NFC and Super Bowl 59:
The Cowboys went 12-5 in 2023-24 to win the NFC East and enter the playoffs as the No. 2 seed in the conference. But that didn’t stop another postseason collapse for Dallas, who were dismantled at Jerry World, 48-32 (down 27-0 in the first half), to the Green Bay Packers to see their season ended early yet again.
They’ll look to turn a new leaf in a contract year for Prescott, who is looking to become one of, if not the highest paid QBs in the league.
Things start with a matchup in Cleveland against the Browns — in what’s set to be a nationally televised game because it’s Tom Brady’s broadcasting debut for FOX.
The Cowboys’ Week 7 bye is sandwiched between two fellow NFC powerhouses in the Lions and 49ers, who faced each other in the NFC Championship a season ago.
An in-state rivalry will be renewed when the Texans come to Dallas from Houston. C.J. Stroud and Micah Parsons will go out of the content roo
But arguably the two biggest games of the season will come against their biggest rivals. Two division matchups against the Eagles could determine who wins the NFC East this year. Note: no one has repeated as division champion in the NFC East since the Eagles won four in a row from 2001-04.
