The 2025 Dallas Cowboys opponents, both home and away, are officially set.
The sun has officially set on the 2024 Dallas Cowboys season and at long last the misery that it was has reached its conclusion. While this past season was hardly a fun one for the Cowboys. it was still a Dallas Cowboys football season. It is hard for those to be bad, this one certainly tried its hardest, and we are all around here because we love this team so much.
It is likely that you are already looking forward to next season on some level and wondering whether or not Dallas can turn things around in 2025. If that is possible they are going to have to live up to quite the challenge as their opponents for next season are pretty stout.
Here are all 17 opponents, both home and away, for the 2025 Dallas Cowboys.
A couple of notable things about next season’s opponents:
- Patrick Mahomes will visit AT&T Stadium to start for the first time. Mahomes technically visited during his rookie season with the Kansas City Chiefs back in 2017, but you will recall that Alex Smith was KC’s starter. Dallas won that game, but not before the Tyreek Hill “hail mary” at the end of the first half.
- The Raiders franchise moved to Las Vegas for play in the 2020 season (remember that Jason Witten was a part of that inaugural team) and have played the Cowboys since then in a game that took place in Arlington on Thanksgiving Day in 2021. Notably, Dallas will visit Las Vegas for a regular season game for the first time in 2025 as the last time they visited the Raiders came late in the 2017 season at Oakland, the infamous index card game.
- Dallas is also set to visit some places that it has not been in over half a decade as they will make trips to Denver, Chicago and Detroit. If you are into planning road trips those are some places that have not come around in some time.
On the subject of road trips, or just information in general, we have gone ahead and noted the last occurrence of each home and away opponent for the Cowboys. Sometimes certain games tend to happen around the same time of year, but obviously nothing is predictable.
Of the 17 games that the Cowboys will play next season an incredible 10 of them will come against playoff teams from this season: Washington Commanders (2), Philadelphia Eagles (2), Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, Detroit Lions and Denver Broncos. For what it’s worth six of those ten games will take place at home meaning only two home games next season will not be against 2024 playoff teams.
Here’s to next season being much better than last.
