NFL analyst calls for fans to stop bellyaching over Cowboys’ lopsided primetime treatment - “Just accept it”

Every season, the Dallas Cowboys appear to be forced into the spotlight more than any other team. In other words, primetime games are not in short supply for the club, which is wonderful news for its supporters. However, much of the league's fanbase has grown disinterested in following the team.

Some were expecting that the schedule makers will let in some new blood as we approached 2023. Instead, assuming an average football game lasts 3.5 hours, the Cowboys will be the only game on television for about 20 hours of the 2023 season. Speaking on Good Morning Football, NFL analyst Kyle Brandt called for fans to get over their exhaustion with the team. Here's how he put it:

Will the Dallas Cowboys make the playoffs in 2023?

"It's just like I think the 10th Fast and Furious movie is coming out this year. It's fine, don't roll your eyes at it. Just accept it. It is what it is. When you go to Times Square, these massive signs and neon and it's M&M's and cup of noodles [advertisements]."

He continued, essentially calling the team just an unfortunate side-effect of an overall net good:

"That's just what the Cowboys are. It's big, bright neon lights. You can say, 'Oh, this is tacky. This isn't right.' You got to embrace it, okay? I can sit here and pound the table. I'm not going to do it. Cowboys, go ahead. You were a very good team last year. I hope you get over the hump this year."
