I have been saying this since before the 2024 NFL Draft even started: Caelen Carson will play significant snaps for a team this season. The former Wake Forest cornerback is now making that case himself. The 174th pick in April, Carson slid down the board far past where I had expected him to go. He was …

The story taking center-stage in Dallas right now is the absence of Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb from training camp.

As the 2024 regular season inches closer, the Dallas Cowboys rookie class is garnering a ton of attention from the fan base.

The biggest story line for the Dallas Cowboys heading into this season has nothing to do with on-field things. Instead, there is a heavy focus on some of the Cowboys stars’ contracts going into 2024. Past that, there is also a focus on some key players’ futures in regard to retirement, like in the case of …
For just a moment, think back to the Cowboys linebackers after Leighton Vander Esch went down in 2023. It was a huge weakness for Dallas, and the entire defensive unit felt the weight of it. By the end of last season, Dan Quinn was relying almost exclusively on Damone Clark and Markquese Bell at linebacker, and …

The Dallas Cowboys roster is like no other in the NFL.

Why are they an enigma? Because despite all of that, they can’t …
The 2023 Dallas Cowboys schedule saw seven matchups with postseason teams, and to say they struggled in those seven critical games is an understatement. Dallas went 3-5 in total, including that embarrassing playoff loss to the Green Bay Packers. This trend has stuck around for the Cowboys in recent years. The Cowboys beat up on the …
The Dallas Cowboys offense revolves around two players: Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb. In 2023, the pair connected on 12 touchdowns and over 1,700 receiving yards. That dominating regular season effort led to a second-place MVP finish for Prescott and a third-place OPOY finish for Lamb. This time around, don’t expect the Cowboys offense to be …
The NFL is about a month away from Training Camp kicking off, and with that, we are one step closer to knowing the Cowboys starting lineup in 2024. In what will be a crucial season for Dallas, a lack of depth has solidified much of the depth chart. This is true at wide receiver, linebacker, and …
