I travel to the home opener.... going on about 13 years now. Odds are the Giants... just because it seems like it is them 25% of the time.

I hope not, although it'll be nice starting 1-0 with a division win. This year, I'm selling all my tickets until I get my money back, leaving 3 or 4 games for free. The prices have gone up 3 times since 2020.

I worked out of town a lot when I had my tickets. I flew or drove, depending where I was at, once a month or so to come home to check on things.
I sold my tickets as well, making enough to pay for the tickets plus go to one or two games for free as well.
I used to go to every game until I had to start traveling for work again.
Sold the PSL's in 2016 though. Have not regretted it for a second. Though I would like to get to a game or 2 now and then.

I retired, and just did not want the hassle of selling them or going to the games anymore. Pay upfront for them, in May, then takes rest of the year to recoup that money. It wasn't the money issue, but just the hassle of it all got old and tiring.

Depends on when they play. TNF or SNF and it will be a playoff team.
NFL Kickoff Game since 2004 has been a home game for the previous season's Super Bowl Champions (only 2 exceptions in two decades). So that first TNF game will be at Arrowhead Stadium, which means the Cowboys won't be playing because they are not on the Chiefs' schedule.

Dallas' 1st game will be either be SNF on NBC or late Sunday afternoon on FOX or CBS...opponent and site TBD.

How about the 1st MNF game? But yeah, doubt that, FOX or NBC will fight that for opening week ratings.

I listed my PSL's, and actually got an offer for 2k over what I paid. I couldn't pull the trigger, though. My son Witten is 4, and he absolutely LOVED his first Cowboys game, so I want to be able to take him to one, or two a season.

Usually two games scheduled on that opening Monday night...perhaps Cowboys @ Chargers for the 2nd \late game?

So jerry says ok but raises seat prices to pay for it.

I think so only it could be sunday nite game.
They would all want dallas as first game, which is why I dont think it will be giants, as that isnt flashy enough.

I dont think they would put dallas on mon night for a opener, it will be one of the major networks.

I think maybe Jones boys should have hired him as OC ??
Perhaps.
But ...20 years ago then Chiefs HC Marty Shchottenheimer hired McCarthy as an offensive quality control assistant.. he had that position for two years. Then McCarthy was promoted to be the KC QB coach for the last four seasons under Marty.
Fast forward two decades ---Cowboys HC McCarthy hires Marty's son as an offensive consultant in 2022-- and recently promoted him to be the new OC after parting ways with incumbent Kellen Moore.

I thought it was brian something who he made OC.
The deal with marty if true, sounds like repaying a debt more than best man for the job.
which is easier working with marty who owes you for the job and will do whatever you say, or say bienmy, who wants to do his own thing?

I would hire the best guy and let him do his thing, and I would just be his boss with a few demands.
Mike is big into hiring guys he knows or owes, and that isnt a winning formula.
