Not the worst schedule. It could've been tougher.
What I like:
1) We open on the road against a mediocre team. Its always an advantage to open on the road since teams get about 10 days for the opener.
2) BYE week 6. Week 8 or 9 is ideal. But I'll settle for week 6. Sure beats week 3.
3) Our toughest road game is after Thanksgiving off 10 days rest. Would've perferred NO in this spot, but if we have to play a tough road game in bad weather, this is the one I'd want.
What I don't like:
1)Opening in a warm weather city. I like the quality of the opponent and the fact that it's a road game. It's just that we only have 2 potential road games without the threat of cold weather. It would've been nice to play them both in Dec.
2)Dec schedule almost sucks! 3 of 5 on the road. 2 in cold weather. But it's not terrible. NYG on 10 days rest is good. We do get one of our 2 road games I would've selected to play in Dec.(NO) And I don't fear the Skins.
3) The one thing that really both surprises and pisses me off is that we only have 2 of 5 night games at home. I was sure the NFL would push to get the new stadium in prime time as much as it could. I was thinking 4 of 5 in Dallas and that would've been a nice advantage.
4) What's up with all these 1:00pm starts? This is the Dallas Cowboys we're talking about right? Since when do open the season at 1:00pm?
