Why won’t the Cowboys play against the Packers in the 2024 regular season?
The 2024 schedule is out, and the games featured couldn’t be better, regardless of some teams not meeting each other during the regular season.
Update:
The NFL schedule is a carefully designed house of matchups, rotations, and strategic planning. While fans eagerly anticipate classic rivalries, not all teams play against each other every season. The NFL follows a predetermined formula for matchups.
Teams in each conference face off against four teams from a specific division, playing two games at home and two games on the road. This rotation is determined over a three-year period. For this year the Cowboys and the Packers don’t align in the rotation.
The league occasionally schedules international games to promote football globally. In 2024, the Eagles kick off their season against the Packers in Brazil. This exciting matchup takes precedence over a regular-season clash.
