Here's a game-by-game look at the Cowboys' 2010 regular-season schedule:
at Washington (Sept. 12) Donovan McNabb's first opponent as a member of the Redskins will be a familiar one. The Cowboys have won their last two games at FedEx Field. 2009 Record: 4-12
vs. Chicago (Sept. 19) The two historic franchises have met 21 times, but only twice since 1998. 2009 Record: 7-9
at Houston (Sept. 26) For the first time in franchise history the Texans posted a winning season in 2009. Will the Cowboys' defense or Houston's explosive offense prevail here? 2009 Record: 9-7
Bye (Oct. 3)
vs. Tennessee (Oct. 10) Quarterback Vince Young appeared to make serious strides in 2009. He's a much different player from the guy who made his first career start against the Cowboys in Week 3 of the 2006 season. 2009 Result: 8-8
at Minnesota (Oct. 17) The Cowboys hadn't even left the Metrodome after last season's 34-3 Divisional Playoff beatdown before talking up this showdown. 2009 Record: 12-4
vs. NY Giants (Oct. 25) After spoiling the Cowboys Stadium opener in 2009, the Giants' celebration ruffled some feathers. The Cowboys will have to do a better job against Eli Manning to defend the home turf this time. 2009 Record: 8-8
vs. Jacksonville (Oct. 31) Don't underestimate the Jaguars. They were one game under .500, playing in the toughest division in football. The AFC South combined for 40 wins, most in the league. 2009 Record: 7-9
at Green Bay (Nov. 7) For the first time in team history the Cowboys are playing at the Packers for a third straight year. It's the fourth consecutive season the teams have met. 2009 Record: 11-5
at NY Giants (Nov. 14) The Cowboys, who beat New York in the 1976 opener for Giants Stadium, take their first trip to the new Meadowlands park. 2009 Record: 8-8
vs. Detroit (Nov. 21) In the midst of a long-term rebuilding project, the Lions at least appear to have found their quarterback. They'll add more talent in next week's draft, picking second. Both teams will play on Thanksgiving four days later. 2009 Record: 2-14
vs. New Orleans (Nov. 25) A true marquee matchup for Thanksgiving Day. Last season's Cowboys victory at the Superdome eased tensions and started a four-game winning streak. Dating back to 1990, the last nine meetings between the teams came in December. 2009 Record: 13-3
at Indianapolis (Dec. 5) In 2006, the Colts were 9-0 before the Cowboys snapped their undefeated season. 2009 Record: 14-2
vs. Philadelphia (Dec. 12) How different will the Eagles' offense be with Kevin Kolb as the starting quarterback? He'll have plenty of experience by Week 14. 2009 Record: 11-5
vs. Washington (Dec. 19) The Redskins scored just six points in two games against the Cowboys last year. Mike Shanahan and Donovan McNabb should have the offense playing better by December. 2009 Record: 4-12
at Arizona (Dec. 25) A Week 6 loss at University of Phoenix Stadium helped derail the Cowboys' Super Bowl hopes in 2008. Maybe Santa will bring better luck this time. 2009 Record: 10-6
at Philadelphia (Jan. 2, 2011) The NFL wants meaningful games for the season finale, with Cowboys-Eagles from 2008 and 2009 serving as the blueprint. 2009 Record: 11-5
Tough road for my boys down the stretch, but i got confidence they gonna make the 2011 super bowl a home game.
