Let the Brian Schottenheimer era begin. The Dallas Cowboys hired the first-time head coach this offseason after they parted ways with Mike McCarthy following a disappointing 7-10 effort in 2024. They also traded for wide receiver George Pickens to provide more support in the aerial attack alongside CeeDee Lamb.

NFL schedule maker Mike North reveals that the Dallas Cowboys are no longer the most sought-after team on television.

The Dallas Cowboys' 2025 season will be historic because they are doing something that the NFL has never seen before.

The NFL certainly still views the Dallas Cowboys as "America's Team." They gave the Cowboys eight standalone games for the upcoming 2025 season. That's tied for the most in the league in 2025 with the three-time defending AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs and the 2024 NFC runner-up Washington Commanders for the most in the upcoming season.

The Cowboys carry a lot of pressure coming into the 2025 season. They need to move on from the terrible 2024 campaign, but the schedule won't be easy at all. They'll also have to clash against the Green Bay Packers and the new-look New York Jets before facing the most difficult part of the season.

For starters, they won't be suffering from much jetlag in 2025—Cincinnati travels a combined 8,753 miles in 2025, the least in the league. A chunk of that travel comes early in the season, with four of their first six games away from home.

The full 272-game schedule is finally here for the upcoming 2025 NFL season. We now know who is playing whom, and where and when, including the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles hosting the Dallas Cowboys in the season opener.
