Cowboys rookie continues to shine with his opportunity

The 2024 season has not gone the way the Dallas Cowboys had hoped, as they have more than half of their starting position players on IR and out for the season. One of those players is DeMarvion Overshown, who was having a great year after missing his entire rookie season with a torn ACL in his …

Cowboys player cemented his place in team history on Sunday

The Dallas Cowboys found themselves as underdogs against a Carolina Panthers team that has not been favorites in over two years, 33 straight games. In their first matchup as favorites, the Panthers looked like a real football team for about a drive and a half until the wheels fell off. Cooper Rush and the offense sure …

This remains an inexplicable stat for Dallas 2

This remains an inexplicable stat for Dallas

It will remain the statistical oddity of the Dallas Cowboys’ 2024 season, maybe even for the rest of time. The Cowboys’ 30-14 win on Sunday at the Carolina Panthers improved their record on the road to 5-2 for the season. Even if they lose their final road game, at Philadelphia, they are assured a winning road …

Cowboys defense dominates in 30-14 win over Panthers

For nearly two years, 33 straight games, the Carolina Panthers were underdogs, but this afternoon they were finally favorites against the Dallas Cowboys. As 2.5 point dogs, the Cowboys came into this game decimated by injuries, but a good showing by Mike Zimmer and the defense proved to be enough in a 30-14 win over Carolina. …

Cowboys lose another All-Pro to season-ending surgery

It’s been a nightmare of a season for the Dallas Cowboys based on the injury front. It has affected the season in a great way, and is the main catalyst for the 5-8 record the Cowboys are taking into Carolina today. Let’s take a look at just how bad the injuries have been. Name value is …

This outcome could be the final nail in Dallas’ 2024 coffin

Today’s game against the Carolina Panthers all but screams “Trap Game” for the Dallas Cowboys. Especially now that the team is at 5-8 for the season and likely with no chance to make the playoffs. They have to win out and that just to finish above .500. The loss of DeMarvion Overshown for the rest of …

Week 15 Injury Report: Key Cowboys banged up against Panthers

The Dallas Cowboys are headed to Charlotte to take on the Carolina Panthers in Week 15, but they will be shorthanded, to say the least.

Has Rico Dowdle solved the Cowboys running back problem?

Dallas Cowboys fans have been clamoring for a shiny new running back for nearly a year. From Derrick Henry to Ashton Jeanty, the list of names linked to Dallas has been extensive, but those lists have wrongfully counted Rico Dowdle out.

Cowboys sign former 4th round pick after rash of injuries

The Dallas Cowboys are in the midst of a lost season. It’s a strange feeling to be looking towards the draft in mid-December, but the team’s ineptitude and sloppy play on the field have put us in this situation. Of course, many factors go into how a season goes for an NFL team, and the Cowboys …

One Player the Cowboys Fear on the Team

The one player the Cowboys fear is on their roster. The fear may be warranted after what has happened in the past with the position. The Dallas Cowboys quarterback room is very low on star power, and the current starter has little athleticism. Cooper Rush is a good backup quarterback but should not be used for …

3 reasons why Mike McCarthy will be the Cowboys coach in 2025

If you’ve unplugged from the media coverage of this Cowboys season, you may be under the assumption that a head coaching search this offseason is a near certainty. However, if you have been reading the tea leaves closely, it seems Mike McCarthy may be extended after all. In recent weeks, the embattled Dallas head coach has …

Cowboys linebacker room looks bleak for 2025

The Cowboys are thin at linebacker this season, and that shows with only six players listed on their depth chart. Dallas was thin at linebacker last season as well, and to remedy that this offseason, they signed veterans Eric Kendricks and Nick Vigil, and drafted Marist Liufau in the 3rd round of the 2024 NFL Draft. …

What will Mike McCarthy's Cowboys offense look like?

As a play-caller, Mike McCarthy needs to keep doing 1 thing

The Dallas Cowboys offense started the first half and the second half hot, scoring touchdowns on the first drive of both. Dallas was only able to score 10 points in the first half against the worst defense in football, and 10 in the second half, and lost 27-20. Yes, a special teams blunder probably cost them …

Here’s how Dallas avoids a loss and playoff elimination tonight

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, …
