What happens to an NFL team is selected to host the Super Bowl makes it to the Super Bowl?
Next year the super bowl will be played at cowboy stadium in arlignton texas. If the dallas cowboys make it to the super bowl next year, would the NFL move the game, or would the cowboys get to play the super bowl at home?

The game would go on as scheduled. It would be impossible to change the venue between the Conference Championship game and the Super Bowl.
In addition, the game site is awarded to the city, not the team.

i dont think this ever happened but i would guess that they would cuz they wouldnt want to give a team a significant advantage…theyd probbably use that stadium the next year that the team doesnt make it

They get to play at their home stadium and get a distinct home field advantage. The Super Bowl takes a whole year to plan and they wouldn’t even consider moving it unless it was simply impossible to play a game somewhere. Like if there were some kind of natural disaster that devastated a stadium or the local infrastructure.

first I’d like to state that the Dallas Cowboys haven’t made it to the post season in forever. second, the superbowl is set over a year ahead of time and so thus would be impossible to change in a weeks notice.

I guess the Cowboys would have home field advantage. And be the first team to play in their own stadium in the Super Bowl

It’s never happened. But if it did, like in the scenario you are talking about, then the Cowboys would still play at home.

Nothing would change. This has actually happened twice before, just not at the actual home stadium: the Rams at XIV (played at the Rose Bowl), and the Niners at XIX (played at Stanford Stadium). At the first game, the Rams were allocated their team’s share of the tickets *plus* the home team’s share, and the Steelers complained that amounted to favoritism. So the Niners did not receive the customary 10% of the tickets for the home team.

NFL teams don’t host Super Bowls. Cities host the Super Bowl. If the Cowboys make it, the game is played at Cowboys Stadium.
