Time for the Cowboys to turn over the keys full time to Rico Dowdle

Rico Dowdle has earned RB1 for the Dallas Cowboys

We saw a little bit of everything in last night’s game that started over an hour late due to the weather hitting the area pretty hard. The game was your typical low scoring, gross football game these teams tend to play when they match up, and I honestly thought the Cowboys defense did a heck of …

The Dallas Cowboys Running Backs are the Worst

One area of the Dallas Cowboys that is the worst in the NFL is the running backs, and there seems to be no help on the horizon. It is not the owner/general manager, but that is probably a close second or possibly first, depending on who you ask. The Cowboys are the worst team in the …

Dallas Cowboys Trade Targets to Cure the Offense

At the start of the season, the Dallas Cowboys’ offensive issues seemed to be stalling drives. A trade could help. The only threats the team seems to have at the skill positions are CeeDee Lamb and Jake Ferguson. One bright spot early on is Hunter Leupke, who seems to be gaining steam as an offensive threat …

Dallas Cowboys’ gritty win over the Giants comes with a cost

The Cowboys got back in the win column last night with a gritty win over the New York Giants, 20-15. They sure as heck won’t win any style points, but a win is a win, right? First-half touchdowns by Rico Dowdle and CeeDee Lamb really made all the difference. I’m not sure about you, but I …

A few rookie diamonds shine brightly amid Cowboys’ rough performance

Given a second-straight loss was recorded on Sunday, in a game that the Cowboys mostly slept-walked through for the first three quarters, the 2024 rookie class didn’t shine that well. But there were some bright spots. The two rookies starting on the offensive line acquitted themselves well. One rookie managed to play peacemaker between Dallas’ two …

Dallas Cowboys Defense has a Foolish Flaw

The New Orleans Saints destroyed the Cowboys in all facets of the game, and every offensive coordinator on the Cowboys’ remaining schedule witnessed the flaw of the defense.

Technically, it’s at least his fourth since being drafted into the NFL in 2020. He likely suffered one in 2022 that was not officially diagnosed. Still, …

Cowboys place DT on IR, poach another from rival practice squad

When the Dallas Cowboys hired Mike Zimmer to be their new defensive coordinator for the 2024 season, there were mixed emotions from the fanbase.
