Dallas Cowboys to host Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, Nov. 1

The Dallas Cowboys enter Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season holding a 3-4 record as they prepare to host the 2-5 Arizona Cardinals at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, Nov. 1, 2026, at 1:00 PM EST, with FanDuel listing Dallas as 7-point favorites. Blogging The Boys reported that the Cowboys secured a victory over the Philadelphia Eagles last week to keep themselves afloat in the NFC East race, while the Cardinals dropped a lopsided contest to the Denver Broncos.

Dallas carries a 3-4 standing into the matchup after defeating Philadelphia, a win that Cowboys Wire noted helped the team exorcise recent primetime struggles under Brian Schottenheimer. The team holds a 2-1 record in games kicking off before sunset and aims to build on that success in the early afternoon window. Meanwhile, Arizona arrives in Arlington with a 2-5 record, having spent a significant portion of their first-half schedule on the road. This marks the fifth time in eight contests that the Cardinals have traveled away from home.

FOX Provides Regional Broadcast Maps and Streaming Options

Fans hoping to catch the game on television will find coverage dictated by regional broadcast maps provided by 506 Sports. Viewers located in the blue viewing zones on FOX will receive the Arizona at Dallas broadcast, called by the announce team of Joe Davis and Greg Olsen, as reported by Cowboys Wire. Other regional markets will see different matchups, such as Minnesota at Detroit covered by Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady, or Las Vegas at the New York Jets with Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma.

Alternative viewing options include live in-market streaming through the FOX Sports App and NFL+. Local radio broadcasts are available on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas-Fort Worth, alongside Spanish-language coverage on KVMK-FM 107.5 La Grande, with mobile tracking supported via the official Dallas Cowboys App and the Blogging The Boys community game chat.

Arizona Controls Recent Meetings Despite Dallas All-Time Lead

The historical series between these two franchises heavily favors the Dallas side on paper, though recent history tells a different story. Cowboys Wire noted that Dallas leads the all-time series 56-35-1. Despite that overall advantage, Arizona has controlled the rivalry of late, claiming victories in the last four matchups and eight of the last nine meetings.

The Cowboys face a favorable upcoming schedule if they manage to secure a win against their opponent, though past results against the Cardinals suggest the matchup remains a significant hurdle for Dallas as they attempt to climb back to a .500 record. Kickoff is set for 12:00 PM local time in Arlington, with local event staffing, stadium operations, and regional transportation networks preparing for standard Sunday game-day crowds.
