All Dallas Cowboys history analysis and commentary from Inside The Star.
Week 15 of the 2023 NFL season brings us ever-so-close to the postseason, and the Dallas Cowboys find themselves on top of the NFC East. There isn’t much left to say about the dominating 20-point victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Dallas’ 33-13 win was a big flex to the rest of the NFL, signaling that the …
The Cowboys head into tonight’s matchup with the Seattle Seahawks with a solid 39-23 record in Week 13 contests all-time. Dallas did not have a Week 13 game in 1960. Nor did it have a bye scheduled for the week. While they are one game over .500 on the road, the Cowboys are 27-12 at home …
The Dallas Cowboys are preparing for yet another Thursday night game in Week 13. Still basking in the glow of a Thanksgiving Day blowout win over the division rival Washington Commanders, the Cowboys turn their sights to the Northwest. A date in Seattle is on the docket versus Pete Carroll, Geno Smith, and the 6-5 Seahawks. …
After dispatching of the Carolina Panthers with impunity, the Dallas Cowboys return home on a short week. The holiday season is here, and with it comes the annual Thanksgiving Day tradition of hosting a game at AT&T Stadium while America drowns their turkey in gravy. This time around the division rival Washington Commanders come to town …
The Cowboys have played a total of 59 Week 10 games in their history. They have had three Week 10 byes and lost one final game to the 1982 strike. Coming into Sunday’s home game against the Giants, Dallas is 32-26-1 all-time in Week 10 contests. They are 13-11-1 at home and 19-15 on the road. …
Looking at the all-time record of the Dallas Cowboys during their scheduled Week 9 games one might be concerned. Coming into today’s Week 9 matchup against the Eagles, Dallas’ all-time Week 9 record of 29-31 doesn’t bode well. But the Cowboys are 19-18 in Week 9 games played on the road. They have won their last …
The game we have all been waiting for since the release of the 2023 NFL schedule is finally here. You won’t hear me call it “Eagles week” because until the rivalry isn’t as lopsided with Dak Prescott as the Cowboys’ quarterback, Philadelphia hasn’t earned that moniker. Instead, I’ll just call it the week the Cowboys play …
Fresh off of an early Week 7 bye, the Dallas Cowboys will return to the field this Sunday. In their third home game of the season, the Cowboys will host the Los Angeles Rams at AT&T Stadium. Dallas’ record sits at 4-2, while the visiting Rams come in with a 3-4 record, and aim to get …
As the Dallas Cowboys enter their Week 6 matchup on Monday Night Football in Los Angeles against the Chargers, they do so with high hopes. Hopes that they can get their season back on track after an embarrassing showing in San Francisco, a 32 point loss where old, ugly habits creeped back. Hope is the word …
The Cowboys will face the 49ers tonight in the fifth week of the NFL season. Dallas’ history on this week in the schedule is not great. Overall, Dallas is 33-25-2 in Week 5 contests. They’ve had two bye weeks fall on Week 5 (2011 and 2012) and had one game scratched due to the 1982 strike. …
Mike McCarthy and the Dallas Cowboys host Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots this Sunday. There are several ways to analyze the history of the two teams, but most recently the favor falls towards New England. The storied franchises have faced each other 14 times since their inaugural matchup in 1971. Dallas leads the all-time …
Coming off a disappointing effort in last week’s loss in Arizona, the Cowboys look to extend a winning streak today. The Cowboys come into today with a 32-24 record overall in Week 4 contests. Dallas has also won its last two Week 4 games. Dallas is 16-9 at home overall, leaving them a 16-15 road record …
The Dallas Cowboys are riding high after a thorough destruction of their first two opponents of the season. The hype train is in full effect after outscoring the Giants and Jets by a combined score of 70-10. This season has started out with success of epic proportions, but it’s important to take one game at a …
Week 2 of the 2023 NFL season brings the New York Jets to Texas to face off versus the Cowboys in AT&T Stadium. This matchup has lost much of it’s luster with Jets QB Aaron Rodgers being lost for the season with a ruptured Achilles tendon suffered on Monday Night Football. The Cowboys and their fans …
With the sting of a second-straight NFC Championship game loss still fresh, the Cowboys got even more bad news prior to the start of the 1982 season. Defensive stars Charlie Waters and D.D. Lewis both retired in the off-season. The draft class turned out to be mostly a bust as well. The Cowboys’ first round pick, …
We have finally come to the end of my favorite Cowboys wins versus division rivals series. The Commanders (Redskins) and Giants have been properly dispatched with three games each. I could not narrow down Philadelphia to just three games, so lucky readers get the fourth game in this installment today. To read about games four, three, …
Few things feel better during the NFL season than celebrating a Dallas Cowboys win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Recent events, and likely social media beefs between content creators and fans, have made the Eagles the Cowboys’ recent most hated rival. Remember the Bounty Bowl back in the 90’s? The football world just seems better when both …
While the Philadelphia Eagles rostered a wide receiver that was dubbed the “Cowboy Killer”, Dallas had a bigger and better version of DeSean Jackson. Dez Bryant seemed to save his best performances for when he was lined up across the team with the ugly green jerseys. My third favorite Cowboys win versus the Eagles was no …
The Dallas Cowboys versus Philadelphia Eagles rivalry hasn’t always been the fiercest in the division. Hierarchy in the NFC East ebbs and flows with essentially each coming year. That’s apparent by the overstated fact that no team has repeated as NFC East champions since the Eagles won four straight from 2001-2004. Fitting for America’s Team, their …
The Dallas Cowboys versus New York Giants rivalry has had many close games that came down to the final drive. My favorite three Cowboys wins versus division rivals continues today with the last game of the Giants segment. We have already covered the games I have ranked three and two, and you can read them by …
Yesterday I kicked off the New York Giants segment in my series of the top three Dallas Cowboys wins versus their division rivals. Number three on the list was an unexpected win during a season where nothing seemed to be going right. A win like that may seem meaningless, but it kicked off the Jason Garrett …
