The Dallas Cowboys face the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday, November 8, 2026, with a -6 spread and a 51.5 over/under according to DraftKings Sportsbook.
Kickoff is set for 1:00 p.m. ET on FOX, with Adam Amin on play-by-play, Drew Brees analyzing, and Kristina Pink reporting from the sideline. Clay Martin leads the officiating crew as referee.
Dallas enters this Week 9 matchup under heavy pressure following a brutal start to the season that has fallen short of all preseason expectations. Hope is dwindling as the team plays a must-win game on the road with the NFL trade deadline approaching.
A victory in Indianapolis could supply the positive momentum needed to motivate Jerry Jones to make a major roster move addressing the league’s worst defense. A loss, however, could end the team's competitive aspirations for the current season, forcing the franchise to look toward next year.
Clay Martin’s officiating crew adds an additional layer of complexity to the afternoon. Martin started in the NFL as an umpire in 2015 before earning a promotion to referee in 2018. During the previous season, the home team had a win percentage of 75 percent, presenting the visiting Cowboys with an uphill battle at Lucas Oil Stadium.
