The Dallas Cowboys went 12-5 for a third consecutive season in 2023 to finish atop the NFC East but went 7-10 and missed the playoffs last year, prompting owner Jerry Jones to part ways with Mike McCarthy. Offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer was promoted to head coach in January but hasn’t had much success in his first year at the helm as Dallas has won only three of its first nine games.
The Cowboys (3-5-1) have a lot of work to do if they hope to earn a postseason berth, and it begins when they conclude Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season by visiting the Las Vegas Raiders (2-7) at 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday Night Football. Dallas is coming off its bye, which was much needed following back-to-back losses to the Denver Broncos and Arizona Cardinals. The Raiders have struggled mightily in Pete Carroll’s first year as their head coach and enter this matchup having lost three straight contests.
Eight games are on Sunday’s NBA schedule, including a matchup between the Milwaukee Bucks (8-6) and Cleveland Cavaliers (9-5) at 7 p.m. ET at Rocket Arena. Milwaukee will be looking to avenge the 118-113 loss it suffered when it visited Cleveland last month.
Meanwhile, the NHL has six games on its slate, one of which has the Edmonton Oilers (9-7-4) continuing its seven-game road trip with a showdown against the Buffalo Sabres (6-8-4) at 7 p.m. ET at KeyBank Center. The Oilers won two of the first three games of their trek, both in overtime, while the Sabres ended a five-game slide Saturday with an OT triumph over the Detroit Red Wings.
There also are more than 30 college basketball games on Monday, including a clash between West Georgia (2-2) and Tennessee Tech (2-2) at 7 p.m. ET at the Hooper Eblen Center in Cookeville, Tenn. Both teams are coming off a victory as Tennessee Tech trounced Berea College last Thursday and West Georgia defeated The Citadel the following day.
