Cowboys, Play the Man
This is not your average football team with average play. The Dallas Cowboys are so far below average it is comical, given the preseason hype for this team. One of the most comical moves this team made was for a player who has not started a game for the Cowboys, but a good value draft pick …
1 Agonizing Issue the Cowboys have is…
The Dallas Cowboys most agonizing issue isn’t personnel or coaching. Well, maybe it is coaching, but it is a persistent problem that has plagued the team for years. The solution lies in better decision-making and discipline. Can decision-making and discipline evolve within a team that has been winning games for several years? Is this even perceived …
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. So, the best bet for an infusion of potential talent would be looking around the league at practice squads. Several teams have …
Cowboys search for answers after another embarrassing home loss
One of the hardest things to do as a sports writer is to find positive topics to write about when your team just isn’t playing very well.

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.

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.

The Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens are preparing for a heavyweight fight this coming Sunday at AT&T Stadium.

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.

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 …
AFC North teams will get the best of the Cowboys to start the season
We are just a handful of days away from the start of Dallas Cowboys football this Sunday afternoon. The Cowboys schedule is a little tougher than it was last year thanks in part to winning the NFC East in 2023. Dallas now faces a first place schedule, pitting them against division winners like the Baltimore Ravens, …
Opposing safeties on the Cowboys 2024 schedule are anything but safe to target
I love NFL football. Specifically, I love Dallas Cowboys football. I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to sit down five times a week to write about my favorite team. When I started playing tackle football in junior high, the coaches chose me to quarterback the defense as the free safety making the pre-snap calls. That …
Cowboys’ defense faces serious obstacles with tight ends this season
The calendar in July keeps ticking days away as we draw closer to real, live NFL football.

They long for the days when they …
Cowboys to face some tough rushing attacks in 2024
The Cowboys had a large exodus of players from the 2023 roster after their contracts were allowed to expire without new deals offered. One of those players was RB Tony Pollard.

Cowboys Nation is now officially just a fortnight away from the Dallas Cowboys taking to the practice field in Oxnard, California for the 2024 edition of training camp.

Dallas looking to ground Ravens’ in Week 3
The Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens will meet for only the seventh time since 2000. That was the first year of the new Baltimore franchise’s existence. Given the Ravens 5-1 record in the previous six meetings, Dallas would likely prefer to see the team fly off somewhere else. There’s also the matter of the Ravens winning …
Cowboy’s Putrid Defensive Season Continued vs Ravens
The Dallas Cowboys have had a dismal 2020 season. Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending ankle injury and the offensive has lost several starters as well. However, the biggest disappointment has been the Cowboy’s defense. The organization spent the offseason adding veteran defensive pieces like Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Gerald McCoy, and Dontari Poe. Unfortunately, all of those …
