Let the free agency rumors begin. The Cowboys roster is littered with big time free agents this offseason, spanning from quarterback Dak Prescott to wide receiver Amari Cooper. Cornerback Byron Jones, however, may be the odd man out in Dallas when it’s all said and done. And if that’s the case it’ll be to the benefit …
There’s been a changing of the guard in Dallas lately. The first thing to change? The quarterback position, when Dak Prescott took over for an injured Tony Romo in 2016 and never looked back. Then just a few weeks ago Jason Garrett, the head coach of the Cowboys for nearly a full decade, was replaced by …
The defining factor of Dallas’ 2020 offseason has been change. As Jason Garrett and the majority of his staff exit, Mike McCarthy and his guys have entered. But while the Cowboys coaching staff has undergone tremendous change, the core of their roster will likely be the same come September. Of course, the core of their running …
Any discussion about the Cowboys offense centers around two players: quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver Amari Cooper. And for good reason. Prescott and Cooper have had instant chemistry since that critical midseason trade in 2018, revitalizing both of their young careers. Now, both enter unrestricted free agency and the Cowboys seemingly must do whatever it …
To say things didn’t go as planned for the Cowboys linebackers last season would be a massive understatement. Thought of as the team’s strongest unit heading into 2019, Dallas’ linebacker group quickly hit a reality check early in the season. One they never seemed to recover from as a whole. Former rookie sensation Leighton Vander Esch …
While the conversation around Dak Prescott focuses on his contract situation, the oddsmakers in Las Vegas seem to be speaking to his value in their own way. Following the Chiefs victory on Sunday to close out the 2019-20 NFL season, SuperBook USA released their early 2020 MVP odds. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott found himself with the …
There’s been a bit of musical chairs across the NFC East this offseason. Following the hiring of Mike McCarthy as the Cowboys head coach, former team leader Jason Garrett found himself an offensive coordinator job with the New York Giants. Garrett is taking a few of his former Cowboys coaching-mates with him to northern New Jersey, …
Time for your regularly scheduled Dak Prescott contract discussion. The Cowboys franchise quarterback is entering unrestricted free agency this Spring, and while the Jones family has been steadfast in claiming he will be a Cowboy for life, the contract is yet to be completed. Most expected for Prescott and the Cowboys to close the deal prior …
How good is Dak Prescott? This question is asked in some form just about every day. How much should the Cowboys pay him? Is he worth QB1 money? What would he look like without Ezekiel Elliott by his side? Is he a product of his offensive line? All questions which detract from the, at this point, …
Everything has changed around Doug Nussmeier this offseason. With Jason Garrett and most of the 2019 Cowboys coaching staff gone, it was somewhat surprising to see Nussmeier kept on staff under Mike McCarthy. Nussmeier joined the Cowboys staff two years ago as the tight ends coach, but now as one of the final remaining staff members …
If there’s one thing the Dallas Cowboys have been known for over the last decade, it’s their superb drafting in the early rounds. Whether it’s Zack Martin, Tyron Smith, Travis Frederick, Byron Jones or just about any of the Cowboys first round picks since 2010 – Dallas almost always knocks it out of the park. Despite …
It’s been quite some time since wide receiver Dez Bryant took the field. But as of late, he’s been as vocal as ever about his desire to get back into the league. Bryant took to Twitter earlier this week to voice his plea for a spot with the Dallas Cowboys, saying that if put in Witten’s …
“I love Dallas.” What else could Cowboys fans want to hear from their free agent number one receiver? Speaking with Jane Slater at the Pro Bowl on Thursday, Amari Cooper made his feelings about both Dallas and the Cowboys very clear. And as Jon Machota mentions in his tweet, Cooper also spoke glowingly about the team …
Mike McCarthy has been busy filling out his coaching staff, with experience seeming to be the main goal. Now, nearly 20 years after his first stint with the team, George Edwards is re-joining the Dallas Cowboys as their linebackers coach. And he brings with him plenty of that experience. https://twitter.com/clarencehilljr/status/1220723345139884034 Edwards has been a defensive coach in …
Every fanbase has their guy. Everyone knows the stars – the Dak Prescott’s, Ezekiel Elliott’s, and Amari Cooper’s – but those unheralded players who the fanbase believes in (even if the level of belief is irrational) are the ones who take control of their hearts and minds each season. And no one on the Cowboys is more …
The new year often brings resolutions – as people look to find their new and improved selves as the calendar turns. “New year, new me” the saying goes, and the Dallas Cowboys have turned quite a few pages as 2020 has gotten underway. Firing longtime head coach Jason Garrett was a change that while seemingly overdue, …
A few weeks ago, Twitter was set afire over the news that Mike McCarthy had not talked to his assumed future starting quarterback Dak Prescott since taking the job. Prescott is entering free agency, and while everyone just about knows Prescott will be a Cowboy in 2020, many pointed to his lack of communication with McCarthy …
3-4 or 4-3? The question has surrounded every coaching change in recent memory – as fans try to decipher whether their new head man will change up the base defensive scheme. Under Rod Marinelli, the Cowboys were a base 4-3 team. Which basically means they had four down defensive linemen and three base linebackers (SAM, MIKE, …
Ever since Mike McCarthy was hired to be the next Dallas Cowboys head coach, every fan has been wondering about offensive coordinator Kellen Moore’s future. Moore has had a meteoric rise to OC of the Cowboys – going from third string quarterback to play-caller in three seasons. Despite letting most of Jason Garrett’s staff go, McCarthy …
New head coach Mike McCarthy added another coach to his staff this week, reportedly hiring former Giants tight ends coach Lunda Wells to the same position. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1217437076620181504 Lunda Wells became the Giants tight ends coach in 2018, but was an assistant offensive line coach on their staff during the five years prior. Wells spent time with …
There’s a collective angst amongst most Cowboys fans. Being that it’s been nearly 25 years since any level of championship success for America’s Team, the fanbase sits atop the mountain of rabid and paranoid bunches around the league. We look for any shred of hope, but the level of panic Cowboys Nation embodies can certainly get …
