As per usual, plenty of eyes will be on “America’s Team,” the Dallas Cowboys this upcoming season. Here are five games they must win if they want to prove they are legitimate Super Bowl contenders.

With the NFL schedule being released this past week, fans are now able to look ahead and try to predict how their team will fare this season. The Cowboys will be featured in six primetime games this season, which ties them with the Bills, Chiefs, and Chargers for the most in the NFL.

Dallas Cowboys must-win games in 2023: 5. @ Buffalo Bills (Week 15)

The Cowboys will have to travel to Buffalo and deal with Josh Allen and the Bills Mafia. It is one of the most hostile environments in football. The Cowboys play in a dome in the warm state of Texas and head to upstate New York in December, where it could very well be 20 degrees with several inches of snow.

The Bills have been one of the NFL’s powerhouses since the emergence of superstar quarterback Josh Allen. His dual-threat ability and relentlessness make him nearly unstoppable to beat on any given Sunday. Buffalo has the third shortest odds to win this year’s Super Bowl, so this will be an opportunity for the Cowboys to make their presence felt.

We will certainly be hearing plenty about the matchup between the Diggs brothers, Stefon and Trevon, leading up to the game. Stefon Diggs is an All-Pro wide receiver and Trevon Diggs is an All-Pro cornerback, so it will be exciting to see these two uber-talented siblings duke it out throughout the game.

The Cowboys will have to show they can weather the storm (literally) and play in conditions similar to the one they will be expecting to face in Buffalo against the Bills.
