Defensively, the Dallas Cowboys are horrific

Defensively, the Dallas Cowboys are horrific, but why? Many fans have been asking themselves this question for the last two weeks. After a fantastic performance against the Cleveland Browns, the Cowboys defense has looked like one of the worst in the league. The games against the New Orleans Saints and, most recently, the Baltimore Ravens have …

A dark horse to win the WR3 job for the Cowboys is being overlooked

Cowboys hoping Giants are the cure to their recent ills

At the beginning of the season, everyone, including myself, circled the fourth-week matchup at New York as an automatic win. As Lee Corso would say: Not so fast, my friend. The Dallas Cowboys are not playing the kind of football that inspires the kind of confidence to talk about “automatic wins” right now. The Giants, also …

 Cowboys own huge advantage in all-time record against Giants

Bold performances will be key to Cowboys’ victory over Giants

The Dallas Cowboys are at 1-2, and in desperate need of a bounce back game after consecutive home losses. It’s not really the fact that they’ve lost two straight. It’s the way they have lost that has fans panicking this early in the season. The defense has some glaring holes at defensive tackle and the safety …

A few rookie diamonds shone brightly in Cowboys' rough effort

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 …

Cowboys’ season could get real ugly, real fast

The talk of the week after being blown out by the New Orleans Saints was Dallas Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy’s track record after a loss. His teams have shown a propensity to bounce back after losses, and that was an expectation against the Baltimore Ravens. John Harbaugh and the Ravens spit on that expectation, coming into …

Dan Quinn having early success in NFC East race 4

Dan Quinn is enjoying some early success in the NFC East

Somewhere in the general area of Washington D.C., Dan Quinn is probably still smiling. Somehow, with a rebuilt offense and defense, a new coaching staff, and a rookie starting quarterback Quinn has the Washington Commanders at 2-1. They are also tied for first place in the NFC East. The cherry on top of the parfait is …

Cowboys’ offense showed up too late to save Dallas

For the first 50 minutes of Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens, the Dallas Cowboys’ offense was nearly non-existent. A pair of very long field goals by Brandon Aubrey accounted for all six of Dallas’ points on the scoreboard. In short, it looked as dismal as the previous week’s loss to the Saints. Down 28-6, the …

Dallas Cowboys First Half Leaves Much to be Desired

The Dallas Cowboys and the Baltimore Ravens both came into this game needing a win. The first half may show what the Cowboys are as a football team. The Cowboys were embarrassed by New Orleans a week earlier, and the Ravens are 0-2. Both teams need to prove doubters wrong, and this game will prove whether …

Cowboys bucking history in Ravens’ matchup

Last week, the Dallas Cowboys were hoping to extend several winning streaks. Those hopes sank faster than the Titanic. This week the Cowboys will look to end some losing streaks. Their opponent – the Baltimore Ravens – are also looking to end a losing streak. Something has to give. The Cowboys’ offense didn’t have to do …

Week 3 Injury Report: Cowboys get key player back against Ravens

After a blowout Week 2 loss against the Saints, the Dallas Cowboys will face a major early-season test at home against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 3. To win this one, Dallas will need an all-hands on deck effort, which means the injury report is critical to their effort. Against the Saints, the offense was without …

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. The offense also struggled to get going and should take some of the blame for the loss. However, one aspect of the defense should be highlighted and fixed. …

DAL vs BAL Bold Predictions: Offenses Will Rule the Day

The matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens this Sunday already feels like a must-win game for both teams just two weeks into the season. Dallas’ record is 1-1 after a week 1 victory on the road in Cleveland followed by a demoralizing home loss to the Saints in week 2. The Ravens are in …

Everyone knows the old saying from NASA astronauts: “Houston, we have a problem!” Houston does not have a problem in the NFL, but the Dallas Cowboys do. Can anyone guess what the problem is with the Cowboys? I will give you a hint: it is on the offensive side of the ball. For those who said …

Tua Tagovailoa needs to follow Roger Staubach’s example

It has now been a full week since Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was knocked out of a Thursday night game against the Buffalo Bills with his third diagnosed concussion. 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, …
