When you think of the Dallas Cowboys’ biggest rivals, the same teams come to mind. The Eagles, Giants, Redskins, and maybe the 49ers or Steelers based on your age. Those are the teams which the Cowboys’ success (or failure) against has defined both of their respective seasons. Beat those teams and you were successful. Fall short …
The book on the Seattle Seahawks has been about the same each year during the Russell Wilson era. They want to run the ball, play defense, and let Wilson pull a couple of magical plays out of his hat to save the game when things get tough. It’s worked well for them overall, even as many …
After 17 long weeks the 2018 regular season has come to a close. Luckily, the Cowboys survived the regular season gauntlet, and find themselves in the position to host a playoff game this Saturday night. They’ll have a rematch with the Seattle Seahawks, who straight up bullied them back in September when they first saw each …
After clinching the NFC East a week ago with their victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Sunday’s season finale against the Giants was rendered meaningless. No matter the outcome the Cowboys are locked into the number four seed, and will be hosting the top seeded wild card team. Because of the lack of meaning in terms …
There is no more controversial player among Cowboys Nation than their quarterback, Dak Prescott. Anytime he takes a snap it seems like half the fanbase is waiting to tear him down, while the other half will make any excuse neccesary to support him. In reality, Prescott falls somewhere in the middle of these two extremes. He’s …
There’s no question what the turnaround point of the 2018 season was for the Dallas Cowboys; it was trading for wide receiver Amari Cooper. The trade bolstered their receiving corps and slotted the rest of the targets into more comfortable and rightful roles. Cooper was not the first wide out Dallas traded for, however, as they …
After clinching the NFC East a week ago, the Cowboys travel to New Jersey to take on the division rival Giants. At 9-6 and locked into their playoff position, Dallas doesn’t have much other than pride to play for this Sunday. The lowly Giants are in a similar situation, with nothing but the draft to look …
Fortune favors the bold. This statement has often been used to criticize the Dallas Cowboys’ decision making over the last few years. Whether going after Jason Garrett for punting the ball, the defense for not bringing enough pressure, or Dallas failing to re-insert Tony Romo midway through 2016, certain segments of the fan base have wanted …
Aren’t the Cowboys supposed to be division champs by now? Well, week 15 didn’t go the way Dallas had hoped at all, with both Washington and Philadelphia winning and the Colts blanking the Cowboys. The good news is that the clinching scenarios have remained the same, and the Cowboys can wrap this regular season up early …
Two years ago, around this time of year, the 8-5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers geared up to face the 11-2 Dallas Cowboys. It was flexed to Sunday Night Football, it was for critical playoff positioning, and it featured two young stars at the quarterback position. At that time I wrote an article outlining the paths Dak Prescott …
Entering last Sunday’s game in Indianapolis, the Dallas Cowboys were riding high. Having won five straight games, including key victories over the top seeded Saints and division rival Eagles, everything seemed to be breaking right for the Cowboys heading into the home stretch. Their defense was playing like one of the best in football, and after …
What is it about the AFC South with these Dallas Cowboys? Dallas’ five game winning streak came to a close on Sunday, as they got straight-up embarrassed by the now 8-6 Indianapolis Colts on the road. The loss was the first since the Cowboys were embarrassed by a different AFC South competitor, the Tennessee Titans, on …
Over pretty much the last decade, the Dallas Cowboys have been rock solid with their first round picks. With selections of Ezekiel Elliott, Travis Frederick, Byron Jones, Tyron Smith, Zack Martin, and Leighton Vander Esch (just to name a handful), Dallas has rebuilt the core of their roster through the NFL Draft. It’s nearly impossible to …
In many ways the Dallas Cowboys offense has found their stride in recent weeks. Over this five game win streak they have “found their identity” playing ball control offense and trusting their quarterback to make big throws when needed most. Of course the defense has been the star most weeks, but this offense should not be …
For once, the Cowboys are not playing what feels like a do-or-die game on Sunday, needing just 1 win over their final 3 to win the NFC East. This week the 8-5 Cowboys go on the road to face the 7-6 Colts, with each times vying for playoff spots in their respective conferences. Both the Cowboys …
“Starting tight end for the Dallas Cowboys” has been about as stable a position as there is in sports over the last decade. It’s been Jason Witten. End of story. Beginning in 2018, however, that stability went out the window with Witten’s retirement. The starting role was left in the hands of Geoff Swaim, with even …
It’s no secret that Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett is the victim of much criticism among Cowboys Nation. Often called too conservative, or called out for “coaching scared,” Garrett has gotten killed by the media throughout much of the 2018 season. You could easily argue that Garrett cost the Cowboys the game against the Houston …
As the quarterback of America’s Team, Dak Prescott is faced with a level of criticism each week that few athletes have to deal with. He is constantly questioned for his play, and even when things are going well, Prescott must answer his critics. But one area absolutely no one can question Prescott is his leadership, both …
This Sunday the Cowboys and Eagles play in what is the biggest game of their respective seasons. The winner takes control of the NFC East and gains the inside track to a home playoff game. On the other hand the loser will have to hope for a little bit of help down the stretch if they …
A lot has changed since the last time the Cowboys and Eagles took the field as opponents. This time around, each team is riding a winning streak and looking to take control of their NFC East destiny once and for all. The division is hanging in the balance, with the winner of this game holding the …
Much of Cowboys Nation had the proverbial pitchforks out when Randy Gregory was penalized for roughing the kicker after a key third down stop last Thursday night. Those same fans were understandably upset when Gregory was then penalized again, this time for lining up in the neutral zone and negating a sack fumble. It was frustrating to see, …
