The Cowboys are set to make NFL history by playing four Thursday games in a single season and facing six consecutive opponents who each won at least 11 games the previous season. From Weeks 12-17, they will compete against playoff teams including the Eagles, Chiefs, Lions, Vikings, Chargers, and Commanders, who collectively had an impressive record of 81-21. Despite the challenging schedule, Cowboys executive VP Stephen Jones expressed excitement for the upcoming games, noting that four of them will be played at home.
