It’s impossible for the NFL to appease every franchise when it comes to delivering a schedule. There will always be a few teams who feel particularly slighted by the league, but in reality, it’s very hard to craft a perfect schedule for all 32 franchises. That said, the Dallas Cowboys may have a legitimate gripe.
The Cowboys want to get their season started on the right foot, following a rough 2024 season. That will be hard to do considering they will be facing the champion Philadelphia Eagles in the very first game of the season. That’s tough in and of itself, but it gets way worse later in the season.
Cowboys fans lose hope in their team, and are taking drastic measures by removing their team tattoos
Dallas Cowboys have hardest stretch in NFL history in 2025
As noted by CBS Sports, their research team discovered something incredible in regard to the Cowboys’ schedule. The NFL gave Dallas the toughest stretch of games ever seen in NFL history.
Who Could Be the Surprise Team This Year in the NFL?
Starting in Week 12, the Cowboys will face the Eagles, Chiefs, Lions and Vikings in consecutive games, which will make Dallas the FIRST team in NFL history to play four straight games against teams that all won at least 14 games in the prior season. The Cowboys will also face the Chargers and Commanders in that stretch, so they’ll also become the first team in NFL history to play six straight games against teams that all won at least 11 games in the prior season.
It was expected since the end of last season that the Cowboys were set to have a difficult schedule in 2025, since their opponents were known. But the NFL did them no favors by putting so many of the best teams on their schedule in succession.
For a team that wants to rebound from a disappointing 2024 season, seeing that on the schedule could be a demoralizer. Thankfully, by Week 12, when that stretch begins, Dallas will know just how goor or bad their team is. They can then prepare for the worst and/or hope for the best.

Fantasy football waiver wire pickups: NFL Week 8
Another week of the 2025 NFL season is just about in the books. Here are the players you should be targeting in your fantasy football leagues, including options for smaller leagues and deeper leagues, as well as players to avoid. Jump to a position group: QB | RB | WR | TE QUARTERBACK Jaxson Dart, New York Giants (Rostered in 43.3% of leagues on ESPN) League Size: 10 Time Frame: Week 8, Short Term, Long Term Dart has started the past four games for the Giants, averaging 23.0 fantasy points per game during that stretch (fourth best among quarterbacks).

4 Takeaways From the Blue Jays’ ALCS Game 6 Win Over the Mariners
While the National League Championship Series was decided with the minimum, the AL counterpart will go the maximum. With a chance to reach the World Series for the first time in their franchise’s history Sunday night in Toronto, the Mariners were stifled in Game 6 of the ALCS by a 22-year-old rookie starter who had other ideas in a 6-2 Blue Jays win, setting up a winner-take-all Game 7 on Monday night. Here are my takeaways: 1. With the season on the line, Jays’ rookie wins the battle The last time Trey Yesavage and Logan Gilbert faced off in Game 2, neither left with an impressive line. Yesavage was unable to baffle Blue Jays hitters with his splitter the way he did against the Yankees in the American League Division Series, while Gilbert looked rusty coming off just two days of rest after being […]
Dak Prescott Is Playing Like an MVP, and the Cowboys Defense Finally Did Its Part
ARLINGTON, Texas - What if your quarterback has an MVP-caliber season, but your defense is so bad you can't even make the playoffs? Call it the Joe Burrow effect.It was one thing when the Cowboys scored 40 and managed only a tie against the Packers, another when they scored 27 and still lost to the Panthers.So, this past week, in defensive meetings, the message was clear and urgent for Dallas players: Don't let an amazing season by Dak Prescott get buried in high-scoring losses."We talk about it all the time: When you've got an offense like this, that's a championship offense, and we don't want to let that go to waste," defensive tackle Kenny Clark said. "I'm just being real. We have to keep improving and keep stepping up, because they're balling. They're putting up points, and you saw today, […]
