CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott were the only two Cowboys to crack into double-digits in last week’s loss to the Dolphins. Lamb led all of Dallas’ players with a 29.95 effort, despite disappearing for a significant portion of the game. Prescott finished with 28.05. Their efforts came up just short of providing a win for Dallas. …
The debate will rage on for some time. And until Dak Prescott or Hunter Luepke offers an explanation we’ll never know for sure. Did Luepke fail to secure the handoff? Did he expect to get the ball and just botched handling it, or did he think Prescott was pulling it back? Looking at the replay from …
The Cowboys could have put an end to the “they can’t beat winning teams on the road” narrative on Sunday. They could have put a lot of pressure on the Eagles going into their Monday matchup with the Giants. But they did neither. Dallas let the Dolphins off the hook, losing 22-20 on a last-second field …
I’ve figured out what is wrong with the Dallas Cowboys in 2023. They suffer from split personalities. How else do you explain the Jekyll and Hyde way this season has played out? At home the Cowboys are 7-0 and have outscored their opponents 279-108. On the road? They are a poor 3-5 and have been outscored …
As with Week 15 games, the NFL did not begin to schedule Week 16 games until the 1978 season. Today will mark the Cowboys’ 46th Week 16 game in their history. They sit just above the .500 mark at 24-21 all-time in Week 16 contests. Unfortunately they have a losing record when on the road in …
When a team loses a game 31-10 its pretty much a given that they didn’t exactly light it up in fantasy football. If you were relying on some, or even all, of that team’s players you had a bad week too. Which is exactly what happened this week if you had any Cowboys on your fantasy …
Brandon Aubrey continued to be Aubrey-matic on Sunday in Dallas’ 31-10 loss to the Bills in Buffalo. First-round pick Mazi Smith drew his first NFL start due to Johnthan Hankins’ injury. It was a mixed bag for the Michigan alum. Fellow rookies Luke Schoonmaker, Hunter Luepke and T.J. Bass also saw some action with varying degrees …
In the words of the immortal Vince Lombardi: “What the hell is going on out here?” All four NFC East teams took the field in Week 15. And all four walked off the field embarrassed by what they’d just done. All four teams lost this week, leaving the division just the way it was before the …
Well, that was ugly. The Cowboys lost on Sunday for the fourth time this year – all four coming on the road. It was the third time it was basically over by halftime. The first time, at Arizona, the Cowboys came out flat on both sides of the ball. They trailed 21-10 at halftime and even …
The Dallas Cowboys didn’t play a 15th game in a regular season schedule until 1978, when the NFL expanded to 16 games. In the 45 years of Week 15 games that the Cowboys have played, they hold a 25-20 record overall. Dallas is 12-9 at home and 13-11 on the road in Week 15 contests. The …
With four games remaining in their schedule, the Dallas Cowboys are currently leading the NFC East and hold the No. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs. Barring an epic collapse by the Eagles, the Cowboys will almost certainly have to go 4-0 down the stretch to clinch the division. Even then, they’d still need the Eagles …
As the Cowboys have charged their way back to the top of the NFC East – and into the running for a first-round bye – one other ownership group has also benefited. Fantasy football owners with Cowboys’ players on their rosters are also on the move. Several Cowboys have moved into the Top 10 in fantasy …
Aside from one obvious exception, the Cowboys’ 2023 rookie class did not make much of an impact in Sunday night’s win over the Eagles. With a key injury on the defensive line coming from Sunday’s game, that may have to change. The Cowboys’ first-round selection, Mazi Smith, may be called on to raise the level of …
After the Cowboys rolled to a 33-13 victory over the Eagles on Sunday, the NFC East is now a two-horse race. They’ve rounded the turn and are charging down the homestretch. What lies ahead is a four-week sprint to end a marathon season. The Eagles have the easier schedule but they have looked very mortal the …
The Cowboys dominating 33-13 victory over the Eagles on Sunday night tied the two teams for first in the NFC East. It also put both teams into a three-way tie with the 49ers for the best record in the NFC at 10-3. As it stands now, the 49ers have the tie-breakers for the top seed in …
The Dallas Cowboys took care of business at home for the 15th straight game. They also kept their hopes for the NFC East title and the #1 seed alive. The Cowboys handed the visiting Eagles, 33-13, with the defense keeping the Eagles’ offense out of the endzone. Philadelphia’s lone touchdown came of a defensive return of …
In a reversal of the Week 13 scheduling trend, the Cowboys usually end up on the road in the 14th week of the season. Today’s home game against the Eagles is the rare exception. It will be only the 24th time in 62 games that Dallas plays at home in Week 14. The Cowboys had a …
Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb put on a show in fantasy football leagues this week. Prescott ranked eighth-highest among offensive players for the week. Lamb had the 15th-highest total. Prescott posted an impressive 39 points as he continues his torrid pace of the last seven games. Prescott is averaging 39 points a week during this run. …
The NFL now has 13 games under its belt for the 2023 season. It shouldn’t be much of a surprise that the rookies are starting to hit the wall. Aside from Brandon Aubrey, the Cowboys’ rookie class certainly appears to have done so. Hunter Luepke and Luke Schoonmaker made some small contributions in Thursday’s 41-35 win …
With both the Cowboys and Eagles playing their third game in 13 days, Week 13 couldn’t have played out any better for Dallas. The Cowboys overcame an off-performance on defense to rally for a win over Seattle on Thursday. The Eagles got steam-rolled by the 49ers. The loss set up a chance for Dallas to tie …
The Cowboys’ 41-35 win on Thursday was crucial in many aspects. It was their 14th straight home win. They are also guaranteed a winning season for the third straight year. The Cowboys last did that between the 2016-18 season after not having done it since a five-year run from 2005-09. They are all but certain to …
