Brian Schottenheimer will face a lot of tough tests in his first year as Dallas' head coach.
The NFL schedule-makers didn't make Brian Schottenheimer's job any easier in his first-year as the Dallas Cowboys new head coach. Not only do they have to start the 2025 season off against their division rival and defending Super Bowl champions the Philadelphia Eagles, but they also have a brutal six-game stretch in November/December against teams who all made the playoffs last season.
If the Cowboys can remain healthy all season, this is a team talented enough to compete with the best of the best in the league and make a deep playoff run. But, they're going to have to do a much better job winning games at home than they did in 2024 and learn to cut down on the penalties. If they can come accomplish that it's entirely possible they win double-digit games this season.
