The Dallas Cowboys did not play a single snap this past weekend but they still dominated the headlines throughout the opening weekend of the NFL postseason

The Dallas Cowboys are in search of a new head coach after the team will not be signing Mike McCarthy to a new contract, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Yet, the timing of the Cowboys' decision creates a few potential road blocks for the front office.

We already know the Cowboys’ slate of opponents for their 2025 schedule, though game dates and times won’t be known until May. Dallas will play eight games at home in 2025 and nine on the road, though that might be a blessing in disguise judging by the team’s record at AT&T Stadium in 2024.

Let’s stack them up against some of the top NFL teams the game has ever seen that we believe would throttle this year’s Chiefs!

The move comes after McCarthy and the Cowboys missed the playoffs for the first time since his inaugural season in 2020.

The absence of significant drawing cards like the Cowboys, Chiefs/Taylor Swift ... indicated that he is expected to be part of the defense for Kansas City. No one else on the Chiefs has an injury designation, which means defensive tackle Chris Jones ...

The confetti fell onto the Las Vegas field, red, white and yellow flakes the backdrop for an exchange between Patrick Mahomes and Chris Jones.

Thousands of Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans fans flew into Kansas City International Airport preparing for the biggest game of the season so far for both.

Jarring and unsightly as it was, the Chiefs achieved all they needed with a 38-0 loss at Denver: Key players rested for the postseason.
