It depends on the wild card round results. I suspect it will be the late game on Sunday.

I prefer to play on Saturday so we have an extra day of rest before the NFCCG.

 

[Fizziksman]

expect the prime-time slot for all Cowboy games

Oh excellent point. I expect it will be on Sunday which will be more primetime though.

 

[JBS]

We played Sunday vs GB

 

[landroverking]

My guess is Saturday night.

yeah....... I think # 1 seed always plays on sunday
makes sense, they get a extra day to prepare and play on sunday as usual.

 

[Proximo]

My guess is Saturday night.

I hope you're right!

As a fan that's easily the most desirable time slot, IMO.

Also, it'll take a day of preparation away from our visiting opponent.

Saturday night would suck

Yay. I'd have all day to nurse a hangover!

We played Sunday vs GB

Which I always found odd. You'd think they would have had that late Saturday or late Sunday.

If memory serves me correct, the 1 seed usually played prime time on Saturday so the opposing team could not get as many days to prepare but I could be wrong.

 

[DejectedFan1996]

Cowboys were the number 1 seed in 2007 and played on Sunday.

In 2014 Seattle was the number one seed but played Saturday; Cowboys played Sunday.

I'm pretty sure the NFL just prefers the Cowboys to play the afternoon Sunday game.

 

[DogFace]

Either late time will be perfect.

 

[Virginia-Dave]

I'm guessing 1 pm on Sunday. The late game on Saturday will always get ratings regardless of who plays in it, so I doubt they put us there. Sunday at 1 seems like it would be the lowest game ratings-wise, so having the Cowboys on there would boost that. In the end it's all about ratings and $$. I'm hoping for any time other than the early game on Saturday. I'm flying in early Saturday morning, and you never know when it comes to flight delays.

 

[jazzcat22]

I prefer a Saturday game. Get 8 days until the next game.
I do not want the late Sunday game.

However since Mara wants us in the playoffs, I am sure he will see we get screwed on the schedule somehow.

 

[Don Corleone]

I've heard that NBC gets first dibs on who they want. Seems weird but whatever.

If that is the case, I can't see them passing up a Cowboys game. That would be Saturday night.

 

[Risen Star]

We lose on Sunday.
