Dallas v Arizona is the HOF game in August, thanks to the great ratings the Cowboys get.

2017 NFL Hall of Fame Game features Cowboys vs. Cardinals

Quote:

While suffering a monstrous dip in television numbers over the course of 2016, the league used the Cowboys' marketing prowess to help save the day on several occasions -- including having the team play four straight prime time games in the month of December.

On Thursday, it was announced the NFL will start the preseason off the same way they ended the previous regular season: with the Cowboys' rating truck in tow.

Was probably a given if for no other reason than Jerry getting into the HOF.

But yeah, America's Team still doing their thing.

Such a great honor and prestigious game.

Wait, didn't they cancel last year's game?

Yep, the field was all messed up, so the game was canceled. And it's really not that big of a deal anyway.

And that's why they chose the Cowboys, because of their ability to draw large numbers of viewers regardless, especially with the great Dak/Zeke story.

Will Dak & Zeke even play in that game?

Think that the Cowboys will be the Raiders opponents when they play their first preseason game in Las Vegas?

yes - last year was canceled. My family was planning to drive over when we lived in NY. Glad we didn't go. Hopefully they'll figure out how to paint the field correctly and they won't cancel the game
