For the second straight year, the Cowboys will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a primetime matchup to open the season. Last season, Dallas nearly took down the defending Super Bowl champions. But, the Cowboys were foiled by a game-winning field goal from Ryan Succop and lost 31-29. Tom Brady returns as the Buccaneers’ quarterback for …
After the Cowboys released Chris Naggar on May 13, it left undrafted free agent Jonathan Garibay as the only kicker on their roster. With no competition, it seemed inevitable that Garibay would be Dallas’ week one kicker. However, it appears there will be competition for Garibay after all. On Friday, the Cowboys re-signed Lirim Hajrullahu, a …
1. WR CeeDee Lamb No Amari Cooper or Cedrick Wilson means good things for Lamb in fantasy football. This season, Lamb is projected to receive 20 percent of the Cowboys’ targets and about 130 overall, creating many opportunities to rack up points, He amassed 2,037 receiving yards in his first two seasons. The only Dallas player …
Some of Dallas’ rookies will be day-one starters. Others will be backups, either worked into the rotation or riding the bench for depth. Either way, all will be expected to contribute in some form in 2022. So, I predicted what each drafted rookie will contribute this season. Not included are offensive linemen because you can’t put …
The Cowboys have a lot of promise in their wide receiver room. CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup are still young with much potential, Jalen Tolbert is an exciting rookie and James Washington adds depth to the rotation. But the one thing Dallas lacks in its receiver room is a quality veteran presence. Noah Brown is the …
Quarterback: Cowboys Do you need a paragraph to explain why Dak Prescott is better than Daniel Jones? You don’t, next position. Running Back: Cowboys Whether Saquon Barkley is better than Ezekiel Elliott or not is up for debate, but Tony Pollard is what puts the Cowboys’ RB room over the top. Outside of Barkley, the Giants …
When Tony Romo fractured his back before the 2016 season, Dak Prescott got thrown into the fire. He was never supposed to be the starter but made the most of his opportunity. Prescott won Offensive Rookie of the Year and led Dallas to a 13-3 record, cementing his place as the Cowboys’ franchise QB. Romo retired …
On Thursday, FIFA revealed the Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium as one of 16 venues for the 2026 World Cup. It’s unclear how many matches will be held there, but with it being one of the biggest stadiums in the tournament, it’s sure to get more than most. It got me thinking of an idea. I thought, “What …
Quarterback: Cowboys The Dak Prescott vs. Carson Wentz debate was settled long ago, with the former coming out on top. Prescott is a top-10 quarterback with a better skill set, while Wentz is hovering around league average. This is no longer a discussion, no matter how much anyone tries to make it one this season. Running …
Marion Barber was “Beast Mode” before Marshawn Lynch came along. Nicknamed “Marion the Barbarian” for his hard-nosed, physical and aggressive running style, Barber had a productive career for the Cowboys in a short amount of time. He was an excellent runner, a great pass-blocker and could catch passes and play on special teams well. Barber played …
As the offseason ages, a few Cowboys will be fighting to keep their starting positions. This may be because there’s an exciting rookie behind them, lots of talent at their position, or someone emerged last season. Whatever the case, those key battles will be won or lost this offseason. Here are three Dallas players who may …
Heading into the 2022 season, the Dallas Cowboys’ biggest threat to a repeat NFC East title are the Philadelphia Eagles. It’s easy to see why, too. The Eagles made the playoffs last season and made many improvements to their roster. Philadelphia drafted defensive tackle Jordan Davis and linebacker Nakobe Dean and signed edge rusher Haason Reddick, …
Despite a disaster of an offseason, the Cowboys still have much premium talent on both sides of the ball. A couple can be argued as the best players at their position in the league, while others have arguments to be top-10 players in the league at their position. Going into 2022, Dallas has a solid roster …
Even though the game quality is up for debate, the reveal of Madden ratings every year gets plenty of traction. The newest Madden, Madden NFL 23, will be released on August 19. I could predict Madden ratings for Cowboys players closer to that date, but it’s the offseason. There is nothing to talk about, so here …
It may be tough to have expectations as a Cowboys fan, but you have to set some kind of standard, right? Will Dak Prescott have another stellar regular season? Will Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard truly split reps? Will CeeDee Lamb finally break out? There are so many questions heading into the 2022 season, especially since …
Arguably the most prominent move Dallas made this offseason was trading wide receiver Amari Cooper, its WR1 in the past three-and-a-half seasons, to the Cleveland browns for just a fifth-round pick (plus a swap of sixth-rounders). The trade left CeeDee Lamb as the prime candidate to become the Cowboys’ new WR1. If you ask Dallas’ owner, …
It may not seem like it given Dallas’ terrible offseason, but there is still much talent on the roster. Both sides of the ball have premium talent, including some of the best players at their positions. The Cowboys had six Pro Bowl selections and three All-Pro selections last season, and they could reach or get close …
Defensive tackle will be a hotly contested position for Dallas as we get closer to training camp. While being one of the weaker groups on the team, there will be several guys fighting for many roster spots. Here’s a breakdown of who’s certain to make the team, others who are likely and those who may be …
There are many things that Cowboys fans clamor for. But if there’s one thing they gripe about more than most, it’s Dallas’ use of its running backs. Ezekiel Elliott is currently the Cowboys’ No. 1 running back, with backup Tony Pollard behind him since he was drafted in 2019. Whether you agree Pollard should start over …
This season, the Cowboys will face many teams with top-tier talent. Dallas will face elite quarterbacks, monsters on the front seven and lethal skill players. Some of those players present a great threat. Others are just great players on a subpar team. Here are all 14 of Dallas’ opponents ranked by their best player: 1. Buccaneers …
Some teams have a gaping hole or a never-ending carousel at quarterback. Luckily for the Cowboys, they are not one of those teams. Dak Prescott enters his seventh season in 2022 and is coming off one of his best campaigns. Last season, he threw for 4,449 yards, a franchise-record 37 touchdowns and just 10 interceptions. He …
