Cowboys’ Defensive Struggles Hurting Kris Richard’s HC Candidacy?

In the NFL, as with all professional sports, it’s a “What have you done for me lately?” kind of mentality. That might not be a good thing for Dallas Cowboys Defensive Backs Coach/Passing Game Coordinator Kris Richard. Things change quickly in the NFL. One minute you’re considered among the best up-and-coming head coach candidates and the …

After all, no matter how this season turns out there’s always another one and another one after that. That’s the great …

Dallas Cowboys Good, Bad, and Ugly From Week 13 Against Buffalo

Dallas Cowboys Good, Bad, and Ugly From Week 13 Against Buffalo

As a general rule, the Dallas Cowboys typically play pretty well when they suit up on Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, that just wasn’t the case yesterday afternoon when they took on the Buffalo Bills in Week 13. In fact, I hope you ate your Thanksgiving day meal before the Cowboys played, otherwise it more than likely left a …

Dallas Cowboys Good, Bad, and Ugly From Week 12 Against Patriots

Dallas Cowboys Good, Bad, and Ugly From Week 12 Against Patriots

Sloppy play and sloppy weather lead to yet another Dallas Cowboys loss at the hands of the New England Patriots. The 13-9 loss by the Cowboys was another close one, but in the end the Patriots proved why they are so tough to beat when they have the home field advantage at Foxboro. I don’t know …

Changes Coming for Cowboys’ Secondary in Week 12 Against Patriots?

Injuries and poor play could force the Dallas Cowboys into making a few changes to their secondary heading into Week 12 against the New England Patriots.

Tony Pollard's Fresh Legs Could Prove Invaluable Down the Stretch

Tony Pollard Could Prove Invaluable Down the Stretch

For whatever reason the Dallas Cowboys coaching staff have been somewhat reluctant to get Tony Pollard more involved in the offensive game plan week to week. I believe he’s proven himself worthy of more playing time, but that’s difficult to come by when you’re playing behind someone as talented as Ezekiel Elliott. Pollard’s limited playing time …

Dallas Cowboys Good, Bad, and Ugly From Week 11 Against Detroit 1

Michael Gallup and Randall Cobb Stepping up When Most Needed

Quarterback Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys passing game is firing on all cylinders right now and are putting up some jaw-dropping numbers these past few weeks. They’ve been awfully impressive during that time span despite just being .500. It’s obviously been a team effort, but I also think a lot of the credit needs to …

Dallas Cowboys Good, Bad, and Ugly From Week 11 Against Detroit

Well it wasn’t pretty and it took an entire four quarters, but the Dallas Cowboys were able to secure a much-needed win on the road yesterday afternoon against the Detroit Lions. The final score 35-27 alone tells you that Detroit was a much tougher opponent than the Cowboys were probably anticipating. This is the NFL though …

The  Dallas Cowboys are coming off yet another disappointing loss at the hands of the Minnesota Vikings. Their season and playoff hopes could be hanging in the balance now, which makes just about every game from here on out all that more important.

Vikings Loss Could be the Final Nail in Jason Garrett's Coffin

Loss to Minnesota Could be the Final Nail in Jason Garrett’s Coffin

The 2019 NFL season kind of seemed like a do or die situation for the Dallas Cowboys current Head Coach Jason Garrett. He is currently in the last year of his contract and his future with the Cowboys organization could be hanging in the balance, especially after the devastating loss to the Minnesota Vikings. If Jason …

Dallas Cowboys CB Chidobe Awuzie Becoming a Red Zone Liability?

Dallas Cowboys Cornerback Chidobe Awuzie is arguably as talented as just about any defensive back in the NFL. He still young and has quite a bit he can do to improve his game, but there’s no denying his talent. One of the things he may need to work on right now is his awareness and discipline …

Dallas Cowboys Good, Bad, and Ugly from Week 10 Against Vikings

Well Cowboys Nation, the Dallas Cowboys let yet another winnable game slip to their grasp Sunday night after the devastating 28-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. By my count, that’s three out of four games the Cowboys probably should have won this season. But, probably… maybe… and should have don’t mean diddly squat in the NFL. …

In fact, they have several key players (Jeff Heath, Amari Cooper, Leighton Vander Esch) dealing with nagging injuries right now. The Dallas Cowboys are entering …

RB Dalvin Cook Presents Another Tough Test for Cowboys Defense

To say that the Dallas Cowboys run defense is a bit of an enigma through the first half of the 2019 season is probably an understatement. We’ve seen them allow Running Back Aaron Jones to run all over them in Week 5, but we also just saw them completely neutralize RB Saquon Barkley on Monday Night Football. …

He is currently nursing a shoulder injury and a knee laceration that required 12 stitches, leaving his availability for …
