Are the Cowboys playing today? NFL schedule, TV channels for Week 7 games

Six teams will not play during Week 7 of the NFL schedule due to having their bye week. The bye weeks began in Week 6, when four other teams sat out for the week and got their rest. 

The bye weeks take place from Week 6 to Week 14, with all 32 teams getting a chance to rest up for the following week. Week 7 grants the most byes for the season with six, while only two teams get Weeks 8, 11 and 12 off.

This was also their fifth win in a row, solidifying themselves as strong Super Bowl contenders.
