First Two Texas Stadium Games Will Be In Prime Time

Posted by Mike Florio on March 29, 2009, 12:13 p.m.

The new Texas Stadium will open in the same way the old one closed — in prime time.

Hopefully for the Cowboys, the outcome will be better this time.

According to Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News, the first two regular-season games to be played at the new Texas Stadium will kick off at night.

This likely means that the Cowboys will play their first home game on Sunday night and their second home game on Monday night, or vice-versa.

Last year, the Cowboys hosted the Eagles on Monday night in Week Two and played at Green Bay on Sunday night in Week Three.

Watkins reports that the Cowboys are expected to open the regular season at Denver. Last year, Dallas also started the season with a road game against an AFC team, traveling to Cleveland.

Possible candidates for the Cowboys’ first two home games include the Redskins, Eagles, Giants, Falcons, Panthers, Seahawks, and Chargers.

The league has announced that the Cowboys will host the Raiders on Thanksgiving.

Going in there and ruining their debut would be ultra sweet.

This would almost make good on all the regular season losing we have done at the hands of the Cowboys in recent memory. Sadly, I think we are probably tied for the 5/6 spot with the Chargers, when it comes to marketability of that game. Seachickens bring up the rear.

Every time we play the cowboys in the regular season we get cheated. They can take their Mike Carey and their bullsh1t stadium and shove it up their ass. I'd be happy if we never had to play those clowns again with the amount of times the panthers have outplayed them and lossed to stupid sh1t.

Doesn't mean I wouldn't like to see us destroy them.

But, but, but we were 12-4 and NFC South Champs. :D

The Cowboys on the other hand suck ass.

Just sayin'.

But, but the Cowboys always rebound the next year. They'll be favorites to win the Super Bowl like they should be! We're just a small market team and can't possibly compete against the almighty lords of football! :lol:
^^^ will be the only time I pull for the tie.
Fixed. :D

It will be the seahawks.

Easiest team for them to beat. Less chance of embarrassment.

NFL loves the cowboys almost as much as the patriots. They don't want them to be embarrassed again.

For the record, first team they played in Texas Stadium was against the patriots on October 24, 1971. patriots were 2-12 in '70 and were 2-3 at that point. The cowboys were 3-2. cowboys won 44-21. easy team...easy win. morale booster.

cowboys had just lost a Superbowl the previous year to the Baltimore Colts and even though they had been known as a good team and had winning records for 6 years were considered the team that just couldn't win the big games (sound familiar?). In 1971 they went on to the Superbowl and won it against the Dolphins.

Let's all hope and pray that the inaugural year for the new stadium doesn't bring the same luck for the cowboys.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
