A few notes and thoughts…
- It feels like the Cowboys play the Giants on week 1 just about every year. In 2018 it was the Carolina Panthers, but now we’re back to watching this divisional matchup early on.
- I love that the Cowboys and Saints will matchup against each other on primetime on week 3. Last season’s Thursday Night game between the two was one of the best games of the season.
- Having a bye week right in the middle of the season is pretty ideal, and the Cowboys have been lucky in this regard lately. This time they’ll rest on the eight week of the season.
- Overall, this seems like a tougher calendar than last year’s. This only makes sense given that the Cowboys are the current NFC East champions and are bound to face tougher opponents.
- A particularly tough stretch might take place from week 12 to week 17. The Patriots, Bears and Rams will be on the list as well as two divisional rivals in the Eagles and Redskins.
