The NFL schedule will be announced later than expected. According to the Sports Business Journal, Dallas Cowboys fans who are ready to circle their calendars should watch the release date on May 15th at 8pm ET instead of the scheduled May 9th. ).
Dallas' 2024 schedule is packed with stories, with the Cowboys facing former defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, facing a promising rookie, competing against the NFL's top talent and hosting a revenge game.
Last season, the Cowboys played in six prime-time games, not including Thanksgiving. Will he be able to surpass that number this season?
Although no dates have been released, the Cowboys do know which opponent they will face in 2024. Dallas will host nine opponents at AT&T Stadium in 2024. Seven of these nine have won in 2023.
Highlights of the opponent matchups include taking on the Houston Texans in the lone Star State battle. Quarterback CJ Stroud and the Texans visit AT&T Stadium, where they just made a surprise playoff berth in 2023. This is a bit of a revenge fight after former Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz called Dallas a “zoo” on The Pat McAfee Show.
The Cowboys also host the Baltimore Ravens in a showdown between last year's MVP (Lamar Jackson) and runner-up (Dak Prescott). The Ravens made it to the AFC Championship Game last season and acquired a solid NFL Draft class to meet their immediate and long-term needs.
After three straight 12-5 seasons, the Cowboys hope to reach their ultimate goal of making the postseason. The last time Dallas won his NFC title game was in the 1995 season…almost 30 years ago. 2024 is a chance for Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy and quarterback Dak Prescott to carry the playoff monkey on their backs in the final year of their contracts with the Cowboys.
