Can they be the first team to play a Super Bowl in their home stadium?
The Cowboys have become an early Super Bowl favorite, and for good reason. They won the NFC East and their first playoff game in years last season and are bringing back most of the same team, as well as adding highly touted rookie wide receiver Dez Bryant. Getting to the Super Bowl won’t be easy for the Cowboys, not only do they play in one of the deepest divisions in football, they also have to play the New Orleans Saints, Indianapolis Colts, Green Bay Packers, and Minnesota Vikings, all playoff teams from last year. The biggest question mark for the Cowboys is along the offensive line. Pro Bowl left tackle Flozell Adams was released and the position will be filled by fourth-year tackle Doug Free. Free has looked good this preseason and will need to do a good job of protecting Tony Romo’s blindside during the regular season if the Cowboys hope to be the first team to play a home game in the Super Bowl.
