I will never again complain about a schedule.

Tampa Bay plays a late September game at home... then doesn't play again in Tampa until November 10... between away games, a bye week, and a "home" game in London. I think it's 7 weeks total.

Dang.

Payback for the 3 straight home games we got last season.

The Bucs got absolutely screwed.

They go from Sept 22 to November 10 without a home game, and have a trip to London in there. Absolutely horrific scheduling on the NFL’s part.

Now they have some serious cause for complaint unless there was a reason for it, like stadium maintenance or something. That kind of scheduling screw-job should be reserved for good teams that constantly run the table.

We get to start the season in a good situation by being at home, and we get to end the season in a good situation by being at home, which could be big if there are playoff implications at the end of the season, so is having back to back road games that one time really a problem? I don't see the issue some are making this out to be.
It’s big deal for some because it’s back to back road then home on a short week for thanksgiving then back on the road next Thursday in Chicago. Thats a tough stretch.

It may be a bit of a tough stretch, but do we really expect seasons where there won't be at least some tough stretch? That's not unique with the Cowboys, and it's really unavoidable. The Eagles, for example, have an early stretch where they play on the road against GB, then have a home game, then 3 straight road games after that …. 4 out of 5 weeks on the road. Every team has tough stretches.

How is it no other owners have complained about Goodell and Mara being so uncomfortably close?

Because other owners and teams, except for the Raiders, are not aluminum-hat-wearing paranoids. Not that you are one, Beaky lad.

The Cowboys will not have back-to-back home games at any point during the 2019 season. That hasn’t happened before.

Eh. If that is a reason why we can't win, we have other issues.

It is not like we are a team that has capitalized on home games.

This is more of a talking point for the people who think there is a league conspiracy against the Cowboys.
