Cowboys keep pace with Commanders, move into second in NFC East

For a few minutes on Monday morning, it looked like the Washington Commanders would expand their lead in the NFC East to 1.5 games.

Cowboys’ rivals are in shambles, and I love every minute of it

After four weeks of the 2024 NFL season, the Dallas Cowboys have an even 2-2 record after road wins over the Cleveland Browns and New York Giants sandwiched around embarrassing home losses to the New Orleans Saints and Baltimore Ravens.

Cowboys make list of early NFL season surprises

As former NFL Super Bowl winning scout, Bryan Broaddus says, the NFL is a strange lady. What he means by this is that most times the season doesn’t go the way everyone expects it to. If it was that easy, the majority Super Bowl pick would win the championship every season, and we can all stop …

Poachers are What the Dallas Cowboys Need to Be

The Dallas Cowboys need to poach players from practice squads around the league. As fans know, this is the only way Jerry Jones will sign players if they are cheap, unproven, unknown, or old.

Dan Quinn is enjoying some early success in the NFC East

Former Cowboys’ star bans ‘negative’ reporter

Last year, former Dallas Cowboys’ cornerback Deion Sanders was the media darling. “Coach Prime” had risen up to head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes in the Pac-12 Conference of Division I college football.

Dallas Cowboys Quarterback Changing of the Guard

The Dallas Cowboys have one year left with Dak Prescott as quarterback, and the writing is on the wall for a separation. A separation would be terrible without a backup plan in place.

Former Cowboys’ receiver helps NFC East avoid preseason finale sweep

The NFC East nearly went 0-4 in the final week of the 2024 preseason on Sunday. Ironically, it was a former Cowboys player who did it. And he was playing for one of the Cowboys’ division rivals.

Dallas Cowboys Love in Madden 25 (Defense Edition)

The Dallas Cowboys defense in Madden 25 leaves much to be desired. The defense has one of, if not the best, defenders in the league, but there isn’t much love for the defensive players after him. The defense from top to bottom looks like a top-10 defense in real life. Madden 25, on the other hand, …

New Technology Could Replace NFL Chain Gangs
