"Each year the NFL makes a big production about 'releasing the schedule' in April. But thanks to the NFL's scheduling formula, we already know 15 of the 17 opponents the Cowboys will face next year, just not when and in what sequence. And with that info, we can take a quick look at what the 2026 schedule will look like for the Cowboys."
"Per the NFL Record & Fact Book, the home and away matchups have also already been determined and are summarized in this table, with the current record for each team included: With that schedule, Week 18 has two games with special meaning for the Cowboys: The losers of the Ravens-Steelers and Bucs-Panthers playoff elimination games will face the Cowboys in 2026."
"A Cowboys game in Mexico City? Roger Goodell announced in November that the league plans to play at lest eight international games next season, with games likely set for London (3), Madrid, São Paolo, Mexico City, Germany, Melbourne, and possibly Dublin and/or Paris. In total, up to 10 international games could be played during the 2026 season, per the CBA."
In 2026 the Cowboys know 15 of 17 opponents due to the NFL scheduling formula, with home/away designations set. The Cowboys will play three home and three away games against the NFC East, four games against the NFC West, and four against the AFC South. The Cowboys will face second-place teams from the NFC North and NFC South and the second-place team from the AFC North. Week 18 will match the Cowboys with the losers of the Ravens-Steelers and Bucs-Panthers playoff elimination games. Up to ten international games are planned, and NFC teams will host the ninth home game, making a Cowboys international home game possible, with Jerry Jones preferring Mexico City.
