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.

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.

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, we have a problem!

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, …

Cowboys need to jump on a desperate Ravens team early Sunday

The Dallas Cowboys not only have a week-three matchup with the Baltimore Ravens, but a week three contest that very well could be a must win for both teams. The Ravens are 0-and-2 while the Cowboys are 1-and-1, but got embarrassed at home against the Saints last week. Look, I still think the Cowboys have problems …

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. Those emotions continue to be mixed just two games into the season. One very good defensive showing in Cleveland has been erased by one of the worst defensive performances in recent memory …

It is time to get this veteran a chance on offense

One thing is for sure, both the run defense and the run offense of the Dallas Cowboys have been near the worst in football after the first two weeks of the season. Ezekiel Elliott, Deuce Vaughn and Rico Dowdle have been the three backs taking all the carries after the first two weeks. Yet Jerry Jones …

Week 3 has become a must win for 2 playoff contenders

After the first two weeks of the season, I can tell you I did not think the Cowboys and Ravens would have a combined record of 1-and-3. Two teams who have dreams of playing deep in January have gotten an early taste of humble pie through the first two weeks of the 2024 NFL season. https://twitter.com/toddarcher/status/1836155833568366975?s=46 …

Cooper Beebe a lone bright spot among Cowboys' rookies 1

Cooper Beebe was a bright spot among Cowboys’ rookies

In a game that was so miserably bad for the Dallas Cowboys, it would be hard to find many bright spots among the rookies. Still, there was one rookie who put up a strong game despite the outcome of Sunday’s loss to the Saints. Center Cooper Beebe stood out not only among the rookies, but the …

3 reasons why Cowboys defense will improve in Week 3

It’s safe to say the Dallas Cowboys defense was a let-down in their Week 2 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. After allowing 44 points and nearly 200 rushing yards, the fanbase is down on the D. There is reason for optimism, however, in Week 3. Dallas will be taking on the Baltimore Ravens, and despite …

The NFC East is a logjam two weeks into the season

It was a crazy week in the NFL’s second week of the 2024 season. It may take a few days to find a proper description for the NFC East’s second week of play. The Dallas Cowboys came into the week looking for a 2-0 start and got run out of their own building. The Philadelphia Eagles …

After the season-opening win over Cleveland, most Cowboys fans were crowning the team as Super Bowl champions. Reality just knocked on their doors. The Dallas Cowboys still might win this year’s Super Bowl. But not by playing the way they did in Sunday’s home-opening, 44-19 loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Cowboys’ defense was a …

Saints destroy Cowboys defense in Week 2 blowout

After a dominating Week 1 victory over the Cleveland Browns, the Dallas Cowboys got taken to the woodshed by the New Orleans Saints.
