Each year the NFC East seems like a crapshoot. A seemingly always competitive division that has not had a repeat winner in over a decade, most actually expect the NFC East to be a one-team show in 2018. That team, of course, is the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles went 5-1 in the …
It could be argued that the downfall of the 2017 Cowboys had more to do with left tackle Tyron Smith’s injuries than any other factor. Sure Ezekiel Elliott was suspended for six critical games, Dak Prescott’s play declined down the stretch, Sean Lee missed three crucial losses, and questionable coaching decisions seemed to be made week …
After many long months of waiting the 2018 NFL regular season is finally here. And with it, for the Dallas Cowboys, comes the season opener against the Carolina Panthers. Unlike the Cowboys the Panthers were a playoff team in 2017, and much of their success can obviously be attributed to their former MVP quarterback Cam Newton. It’s …
The NFL is back, and for a lot of people, that means that gambling on the NFL is back. The Cowboys aren’t getting much “respect” from Vegas this season, as they’re expected to win 8 games and be an overall average football team. They’re probably right in their expectations for the season overall, but as fans …
Heading into the final week of the preseason, many anticipated that the Cowboys cornerback depth chart was just about set. Of course, we all know the locks at the top of the roster, but corner Charvarius Ward seemed to have earned the final secondary spot. Then, surprisingly, the Cowboys decided to deal Ward to the Kansas …
The Dallas Cowboys put the finishing touches on an 0-4 preseason this evening, falling to the Houston Texans 14-6. To be quite honest there isn’t much to say about tonight’s performance. The Cowboys offense was once again stagnant, as they finish off their final two preseason games with just 9 combined points. These backup and third …
Heading into Thursday night’s preseason finale, much of the Cowboys final roster feels like it’s set. There are a handful of spots that guys on both sides of the ball are competing for, though, and at least three of which seem to be on offense. Arguably the most high profile of these bubble guys is former …
Over the past few seasons the Cowboys defense has seemingly relied on one man: Pro Bowl linebacker Sean Lee. Though he is obviously a special talent, the complete lack of organization and production among the Cowboys defense when Lee is absent has been very concerning. Without Lee, the Cowboys defense falls on its face. They’ve lacked …
If one thing has become abundantly clear during the preseason thus far, it’s that if Dak Prescott goes down, the Dallas Cowboys are in big trouble at the quarterback position. Of course, this is true of virtually every team in the league, as the game’s most important position is also the most barren in talent. But …
While complicated in some ways, football boils down to pretty simple concepts. If you want to win games you have to rush the passer and protect your passer from the opponents’ rush. Simple enough, right? Well, as we all know, formulating a consistent pass rush in the NFL is a very difficult thing to do, and …
As has been covered about 100 times the last few months, the Cowboys have overhauled their wide receiver corps this offseason. By bringing in players like Allen Hurns and Michael Gallup, and releasing veteran wide out Dez Bryant, the Cowboys have made a conscious effort to bring in new blood on the perimeter. So far, the …
Outside of “The Star,” there are very few people that believe in the Dallas Cowboys’ starting safeties. The name Xavier Woods is known more for professional wrestling fame around the country, and Jeff Heath has been consistently disregarded year after year. While we spend a lot of time defending Xavier Woods, and stating that his talent …
As is typical for Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks, Dak Prescott has been the number one story surrounding the team all offseason. After an incredibly impressive start to his young career, Prescott struggled greatly down the stretch in 2017. Without players like Ezekiel Elliott and Tyron Smith around him, Prescott appeared to hit a wall, and he never really …
When the Dallas Cowboys decided to use a fifth round pick on Western Kentucky’s Mike White, it became likely the team would go with 3 quarterbacks on the active roster in 2018. White, known for his arm strength and poise, was expected to compete with Cooper Rush for the backup quarterback job during training camp, and …
Entering training camp projecting who would make the final roster from the Dallas Cowboys wide receiving room was a crapshoot. The combination of misfits from other teams, unproven young guys, and a couple of Cowboys veterans makes this position group the most questioned across the entire roster. But while Cole Beasley, Allen Hurns, and Michael Gallup …
During their preseason opener, the Dallas Cowboys offensive line faced its first test of the season. The young, athletic, and downright talented defensive line of the 49ers gave the Cowboys starting five a chance to gauge their offseason progress thus far. I’d say the starting group passed the test, while the backups and depth players looked …
After missing the team’s walkthrough this morning, it is being reported that Dallas Cowboys starting center Travis Frederick is having his shoulder evaluated due to multiple stingers. According to reports, Frederick has been dealing with stingers all training camp, and the Cowboys are unsure what is wrong with his shoulder. Frederick rarely misses any practice time …
The collapse of the 2017 Dallas Cowboys can be, in large part, attributed to the collapse of their offensive line. When left tackle Tyron Smith was forced to miss time with various injuries, neither Chaz Green nor Byron Bell could get the job done in his place. Not only were these two replacements unsatisfactory, however, they …
Much of the offseason was spent marveling over the Dallas Cowboys’ cornerbacks. Congratulating the front office for finding Chidobe Awuzie and Jourdan Lewis on day two of the 2017 NFL Draft, drooling over the possibilities with Byron Jones at cornerback, and discussing how impressive new secondary coach Kris Richard has been thus far. After one preseason …
Heading into last night’s preseason opener Cowboys fans had their minds on three linebackers: Sean Lee, Jaylon Smith, and Leighton Vander Esch. Of course, they were right to focus on those three. They are the three most talented linebackers on the roster, and each were taken within the first two rounds of their respective drafts. During …
Replacing a legend is never easy, in fact it’s usually impossible. But entering the 2018 season it’s exactly what the Cowboys need to do at the tight end position. Jason Witten’s retirement has shined the light on a less-than exciting position group in Dallas, as the Cowboys attempt to use a plethora of unproven players to …
