Game notes Setting the scene Another rivalry trophy is shelved for the foreseeable future.

Nothing about the Dallas Cowboys recent history against the Denver Broncos suggests the road team for this upcoming week eight test will be able to win consecutive games for the first time in 2025, and first time under HC Brian Schottenheimer. However, both teams are coming off emotional, momentum-building home wins, and something has to […]
