We knew coming into Thursday that the Cowboys would be on the road to take on the New York Giants in the season opener on *Sunday Night Football*, that Dallas is “hosting” the Baltimore Ravens in Brazil in Week 3, and that the Philadelphia Eagles would be in town for Thanksgiving Day. Now we know it all. Among the first things that jump to mind is that bye week is *late*. Dallas isn’t on bye until Week 14, the Sunday of that week is December 13th for full perspective. The Cowboys also only play twice in their own building, thanks to the Brazil game, before November. Sometimes those weird quirks show up in schedules and this is certainly one of them. It is interesting to see that the NFL gave Dallas the longest amount of rest possible after their Thanksgiving tilt. It hasn’t been uncommon for the league to have the Cowboys play on consecutive Thursdays, but perhaps that is a thing of the past. What do you think?
