I hope they flex the Vikings game to Sunday night over the Bengals/Steelers. I want Primetime Cousins. That should even out the home field advantage.
Well looks like they flexed the Bengals/Steelers but they gave the game to the Chargers/Chiefs...

No matter how they change our schedule, we still have a cupcake schedule. All we have to do is stay healthy. A healthy Cowboys team can beat anyone on our schedule.

We know we have GB & Minnesota, the NYG at home on T-Day.
To me this is a very important stretch, and must win all 3 games. To position ourselves not only for the division, but for HFA as well.

We then have 10 days rest. As we play the Colts on SNF. My guess this gets flexed out, but it is Dallas, so they may keep it for the ratings.
As there could be several more interesting games that day.
Browns at Texans, Watson home coming? Doubt that.
Titans at Eagles, see where both teams are by this time.
Miami at SF, KC at Cincinnati
All possibilities.

Then we have Texans and at Jaguars
Then the home game against the Eagles, big game there, and a 3:30 games as is the T-Day game, so 2 games possible sun issues.

Titans on TNF, so at least it is not a game to get flexed.
finish at Washington, and hopefully we have the division wrapped up by then. I still think the Eagles drop 2 games by then.
We are almost certainly not winning all 3 games in 12 days.
And the rest is just talk.
Home field means very little in Dallas beyond you'd like to avoid bad weather but we have better road crowds in many stadiums than we do at home.

A ton of football left to be played and all the looking forward stuff really should be put on hold for another month.
Look at Buffalo and Josh Allen. Being healthy and playing well means a heck of a lot more than home field stuff.

Things are falling bad for us, Philly could be undefeated by the time we face them, even if we win, might not be enough.

If we get the fifth spot and play the Bucs...Brady at home in his (again) last playoff run? Not good.

Our passrush could be nulificated by his quick release and the refs treating him like a princess, there will be some home cooking from the league there ...sigh

I'll better take it game by game and not get all worked up, hope we get some breaks down the road

Yeah we have a pretty soft schedule.. Problem is Philly shopped at the same pillow fillin store and their schedule is even softer. So even though I have ever confidence that the Cowboys will be the better team by year's end, we may not have the better record. But win in the playoffs.. That's all that matters frankly and as long as this defense keeps playing at its current level (and fixes the run D) and the offense continues to improve I will feel really good about the team headed into the playoffs to go anywhere and beat anybody in any conditions..
