The NFL offseason can often be a boring time for fans who don’t closely follow other sports. You can count me in that group. I really only follow the NFL closely. I’m a bird brain when it comes to sports, so I do keep up casually with the MLB and NBA, but I really shy away …
The 2024 season was a tale of two Jalens for the Dallas Cowboys. Jalen Tolbert, a third-round pick in 2022, had a good season. He started 15 of the 17 games he played in and had 610 yards and seven touchdowns on 49 catches. He more than doubled his combined output in catches and yardage over …
The Dallas Cowboys have a good track record in the NFL Draft, especially in comparison to some other teams. That doesn’t mean they are without mistakes, however, and one Cowboys draft trend in particular is a sore spot for fans. Three of the last four Michigan Wolverines to come to Dallas have become some of the …
The END SESSION button for the 2024 NFL season was smashed by the Philadelphia Eagles when the clock hit all zeroes in their dominant Super Bowl victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Cowboys 2025 coaching staff has been finalized, but that hasn’t stopped fans from asking questions. Some are pointing out that Jerry Jones may have gone cheap on the coaching hires this offseason. When you look at the list of the staff provided by the team, you’ll see a ton of guys in their first year …
Brandin Cooks had his worst year as a pro at arguably the worst possible time. In 2024, Cooks missed seven games and only started in nine. He wound up with just 26 catches for 259 yards and three touchdowns in 2024. Which made voiding his contract and its $4 million almost a dead certainty. The Dallas …
It’s a new era for the Dallas Cowboys. Mike McCarthy is no longer the head coach after five seasons. Three consecutive playoff appearances sandwiched in between two losing seasons without QB Dak Prescott for most of the season wasn’t enough to bring him back. The Dallas Cowboys’ extensive and grueling head coach search *insert eye roll …
Here we are again, talking about an offseason filled with more questions than answers, and unfortunately for all of us fans, we are in store for much of the same.

Did we all enjoy ourselves as Dallas Cowboys fans watching the Eagles win another Super Bowl, while this team can’t even win more than one playoff game?

Since the Dallas Cowboys’ last Super Bowl win 29 seasons ago, many careers have ended without a title in Dallas. The more prominent names are well known.

Rumors have been swirling about the Dallas Cowboys dealing superstar Micah Parsons. As he awaits a new contract and critiques the team’s free agency strategy, it is easy to see why people are speculating. Parsons, 25, is in line to get a massive extension, and Dallas’ insistence on not spending could hinder those negotiations. On top …
One of my favorite parts of the NFL season is when it’s finally over. Let me explain. Yes, there are moments of despair, knowing meaningful football is seven months away, but there are some perks to the end of the season. I love to watch all the stats, grades, and obscure accomplishments that get announced once …
The starting running back for the Dallas Cowboys in 2024 may depart in free agency next month. Many pundits, including this one, have called for Dallas to draft Rico Dowdle’s replacement. But is that player already on the roster? In 2022, the Cowboys signed free agent running back Malik Davis out of Florida. The former Gator …
I woke up this morning and the Philadelphia Eagles were still Super Bowl LIX champions, so my day did not get off on the right foot. There’s nothing you or I or anyone else on this planet can do about that. I’ve had about enough today of watching the back and forth on Twitter/X about QB …
As we continue to move closer to the NFL Draft in April, I was doing some deep diving to see how this front office has actually been doing over the recent years, and found something very concerning. When it comes to the draft, this team has does really well, but if you take a look at …

Will the Dallas Cowboys’ big uglies see an increase in grades? Klayton Adams came over to the Dallas Cowboys from the Arizona Cardinals, where he was the offensive line coach. He was also an offensive lineman at Boise State, so he knows a thing or two. Conor Riley is the new offensive line coach. He came …
The confetti might still be falling on the turf in Caesar’s Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana after the Philadelphia Eagles dismantled Patrick Mahomes and the two-time defending Super Bowl champions in a 40-22 rout. It was a dominant show of force from the Eagles, who controlled both sides of the line of scrimmage for the entirety …
In the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys made a pick that had everyone reaching for a tissue. Deuce Vaughn, a running back out of Kansas State, is the son of the Cowboys’ college scout, Chris Vaughn, who got to make the call to tell his son they’d be commuting to work …
The Dallas Cowboys offensive coaching staff shakeup is nearly complete. Every significant coaching role has been replaced, and this team is looking to start fresh.

The Dallas Cowboys coaching staff up to this point outside of the head coach is not actually half bad, but the team hired a questionable name yesterday afternoon, and not sure fans are going to be thrilled with it.
