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 …

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 …

Cowboys hit jackpot in Vegas; record first preseason win

I’ve never been to Las Vegas, and they say what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. In this case, the Dallas Cowboys can take many good things back to Texas after their first preseason win. Led by QB2 hopeful Trey Lance, the Cowboys took down the Las Vegas Raiders by the score of 27-12 in front …

Former Cowboys wide receiver hangs up his cleats

Once NFL training camps are concluded and rosters become final, 1,696 players are officially members of one of the 32 NFL teams. The turnover from season to season is incredible, and when you mix in free agency and the draft for each offseason, that turnover is multiplied tenfold. Make no mistake.

Mahomes, Chiefs deny ex-Cowboys defensive lineman a ring

Randy Gregory was just a little over seven minutes away from completing a strange odyssey. The Cowboys’ second round pick of the 2015 Draft – 60th overall – was a promising young defensive lineman out of Nebraska. That promise went up in smoke – literally.

For Dallas, hybrid positions continue to reap benefits

Chargers game proved Cowboys’ hybrid linebacker is ready to soar

The Dallas Cowboys have ended Monday night in the ‘win’ column. You will have some who will discount the victory since it wasn’t against the 49ers or Eagles. Others, like me, will take the win and keep pushing. The offense was up and down but very efficient when they needed to be. The stars started to …

Win over the Chargers was a must-have for Dallas, Dak Prescott

With the Cowboys playing on Monday night, this week’s Monday Morning Quarterback was delayed a day. It was worth the wait if you ask me. It wasn’t a blowout, and it wasn’t easy. But at least it was a win and one Dallas badly needed. The Cowboys’ offense got just enough done and the defense stepped …
