Nationally Televised games next year with a minimum of 7? I skimmed through the schedule and no other team seemed to have more of them than us.

Probably.

As much as the Non-Cowboys fans hate America's Team they are the first to tune in to the games (actually the second, after us, of course)

On NFL Network they said we have the most and it is a record. I didn't personally check to verify.

The Chargers have only three prime-time games all season. We have six, plus the Thanksgiving Day game.

I started making a count earlier in the day of all teams, but I stopped. Man it was just taking too long. :)

as much as people hate the boys, and despite the media bias, the Cowboys are always relevent :D.

This is one year that the anti-Dallas people can complain.

I know we are a draw.

But this was very unexpected. At least to me.

It is great news for the brand.

I am sure Jones is ecstatic.

But, it will be terrible if we end up being a bad team.

That means a lot of national exposure and a real impact on the viability of the brand.

Very unexpected to me too. Just hope we can prove we're worth it on the field.

I don't want to be negative, but I can see it.

I cannot recall what season it was, perhaps in the glory days of Campo, but we were not good and we had at least two/three games where we were featured on public display like a sideshow freak.

I think we'll be good, but it's not bad to be negative, means you aren't getting your hopes up so if we tank you're already prepared, where as if we tank, I'd be crushed.....

According to ESPN Radio today we have 7, the Giants 6, Eagles 4...did not hear how many the Skins have.

It would be a good year to win our division...that would help the quality of our "brand" immensely.

It could also prove to be an advantage in free agency next year; some players are liable to consider off-field opportunities, i.e., endorsement possibilities, when making a decision... the greater your TV exposure, the greater your chances of landing a national endorsement deal...
