The Philadelphia Eagles escaped with their ninth-straight win, a 22-16 nail-biter over the Carolina Panthers. They now lead the NFC East by three games with four to play. Barring an epic collapse, the Eagles will win …
George Teague was a free safety for the Dallas Cowboys for five seasons; 1996, 1998-2001. Teague’s greatest play for Dallas doesn’t show up in any box score. But you can watch it right here: Teague takes out T.O. When not defending the logo, Teague had 15 interceptions in 71 games for Dallas. Two of those went …
With the game tied and two minutes left, the Dallas Cowboys looked to get the ball back with good field position to go for the win. When the punt was blocked by Nick Vigil, victory on Monday night seemed all but certain. But Amani Oruwariye decided to field the blocked punt, muffed it and allowed the …
Coming into tonight’s game, both teams find themselves in playoff mode with five weeks left and looking to avoid elimination with a loss. Of the two teams, the Dallas Cowboys could still be alive after a loss tonight. That would put this team under pressure that it probably can’t withstand over the last four games. So, …
In the 64 previous NFL seasons they’ve completed, there is one thing the Dallas Cowboys have never done. They’ve never been 5-7 and rallied to make the playoffs. That is exactly what they are being tasked to do this year. If the Cowboys can win out they would finish at 10-7. Two teams made the playoffs …
For only the second time in 2024, the Dallas Cowboys have a chance to win three-straight games. The last time they had a chance to win three in a row, they got blitzed at home by the Lions, 47-6. Chances are they won’t get blown out by the Bengals on Monday night. Whether or not they …
As sad as it was for the Dallas Cowboys to think that Zack Martin’s departure due to injury a few weeks back was the end of his career, it might have been a blessing in disguise. The Cowboys’ running game has suddenly come to life since Martin went down. But a new right guard isn’t the …
With under a third of a season left to be played, there are still a few things to be settled in the NFC East. Can the Philadelphia Eagles close out the division? They hold a comfortable lead and have a somewhat favorable schedule ahead. Philadelphia could close out the division as soon as Dec. 15th with …
Jimmy Johnson was dropping wisdom on Cowboys Nation over the holiday weekend. In the pregame leading up to the Cowboys’ 27-20 win over the Giants, Johnson dropped this after picking the Cowboys to win. “They won last week, they’re gonna win today,” Johnson said. “Then they’re going to win the next two games.” After a pause, …
In case you hadn’t heard, the Dallas Cowboys have won two straight games. They are now at 5-7 for the season after their 27-20 victory over the Giants on Thanksgiving Day. They are also facing a nightmare scenario. Dallas’ next two games are winnable, even for a team that has struggled as the Cowboys have. They …
Last week, it was the special teams unit that saved the Cowboys. This week it was a stellar defensive effort that carried the day. Dallas kept its slim playoff hopes alive on Thanksgiving Day with a 27-20 victory over the New York Giants. The win was the first for the Cowboys at home this season after …
For the 57th time in 65 seasons, the Dallas Cowboys will host a football game on Thanksgiving Day. Dallas is hoping to carve up the lowly Giants before heading home to carve up some turkey. Given the opponent, it seems like a likely outcome. But the Cowboys have yet to win a game at home this …
A 10-7 record is not going to be good enough to win the NFC East in 2024. Since that is the absolute best record the Dallas Cowboys can end the year with, that rules them out of defending their title. Barring, of course, the Eagles and Commanders both collapsing in record fashion. So, the Cowboys now …
For 51 minutes on Sunday afternoon, it looked like the tank was in and then the final nine minutes played out. You are not alone this morning if you’re still trying to process the final 540 seconds of the Dallas Cowboys 34-26 win. Just imagine what the Washington Commanders are going through right now. With the …
Last year, the Washington Commanders arrived in Texas to face the Dallas Cowboys in a Week 12 contest. Washington was 4-7 and playing out the string. The Cowboys were 7-3 and trailing the Eagles by two games for the NFC East title. Fast-forward one year to Week 12 of the 2024 season. The Cowboys are 3-7 …
Ten games into what has become a nightmare season for the Dallas Cowboys, there are some absolute certainties: The season is a total loss There are players currently on the roster who should not be back in 2025 The players from the last two drafts need to start the rest of the way At 3-7, and …
Last year, through 11 weeks of the NFL season, the Philadelphia Eagles looked poised to cruise to the NFC East title. They were 9-1 and would win in Week 12 to go to 10-1. In short, the Eagles looked unstoppable. Then they lost five of their next six games to finish 11-6 and a game behind …
The Dallas Cowboys suffered their fifth straight loss of the season on Monday night. And that might be as good as the news gets. Several offensive linemen failed to finish the 34-10 loss to the Texans. Including their two starting guards, Zach Martin and Tyler Smith. Already limited in practice last week, Martin suffered an ankle …
Two teams riding losing streaks will enter. Only one, probably, will exit with a one-game winning streak and bragging rights for Texas. Barring, of course, a tie. The way the Dallas Cowboys season has been going, nothing can be ruled out. The Cowboys, with a four-game losing streak in tow, will host the Houston Texans in …
After last Sunday’s blowout loss to the Eagles, barring a miraculous turnaround, the 2024 season is a lost cause for the Dallas Cowboys. Monday night’s game against the Texans is shaping up to be Dallas’ fifth home loss. At 3-7, the Cowboys would seemingly be all but officially eliminated from the playoffs. Prior to today’s games, …
It may seem like a minor issue, especially in light of a 3-6 season in a death spiral, but what is becoming “Curtain-gate” is a symptom of the larger issue. The Dallas Cowboys are an un-serious organization from top to bottom. The recent reemergence of why having a wall of glass at the western end of …
