Cowboys Survey: Did the Panthers loss extinguish all hope?

Cowboys Survey: Did the Panthers loss extinguish all hope?

NFL teams sometimes defy logic. How can an organization field an offense as robust and as immune to injury as the one the Dallas Cowboys currently have, only to field a helpless and inept defense. You would think an organization that can sign/draft players and coach them up so well on offense could find a way to do something similar on defense. Even just an average defense could be expected.

But that’s not the Dallas Cowboys way. Instead we are subjected to extremes, and left to wonder what would be if we could just get all pistons firing together during...

Cowboys vs Commanders: 3 players Dallas should use more in Week 7

Cowboys vs Commanders: 3 players Dallas should use more in Week 7

After a demoralizing 30-27 loss to the Carolina Panthers last Sunday, the Dallas Cowboys have plenty they need to clean up before this week’s matchup against the Washington Commanders. If the Cowboys want to beat their division rival, here are three players they should use more in this week’s game.

1) DE Donovan Ezeiruaku

Coming into the regular season, expectations were high for second-round pick Donovan Ezeiruaku. After the Cowboys traded Micah Parsons away a little over a week before their first game, many believed Ezeiruaku would step into a more significant role in Dallas’ defense.

Cowboys injuries: CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Booker return to practice

Cowboys injuries: CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Booker return to practice

The Dallas Cowboys have been plagued by multiple injuries this season, and help may be right around the corner, right before a key game against the Washington Commanders. Here’s how the Cowboys are looking after Wednesday’s practice.

CeeDee Lamb (ankle) was back at practice on Wednesday and was seen participating in team activities, earning a limited designation. Guard Tyler Booker (ankle) was ramping up and was a limited participant. Return specialist KaVontae Turpin (foot) was back at practice also as a limited participant and is looking on track to return versus Washington. Plus, Marshawn Kneeland (ankle), you guessed it, was...

Each week we dive into each team’s rookie class and compare how they stack up against each other. (Grades for each player are the overall offensive or defensive grade handed out by PFF.com)

Tyler Booker (OG)

First Round

Currently out with high ankle sprain.

Grade: 65.0

Donovan Ezeiraku (DE)

Second Round

Washington’s offense is a moving target because Jayden Daniels turns dropbacks into field trips. He’s been sacked 14 times, which is middle of the pack and the Commanders just coughed up three turnovers on Monday night after juggling injuries up front. That’s the kind...

2025 NFL Week 7: Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Commanders

2025 NFL Week 7: Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Commanders

The Dallas Cowboys are set to host the Washington Commanders on Sunday afternoon. The game will mark their first one at home since their tie against Micah Parsons and the Green Bay Packers.

There will be another familiar foe on the opposing sideline as the Commanders are led by Dan Quinn these days. This game is the first one where Quinn will be the Commanders head coach against a Cowboys team with Dak Prescott under center. It certainly helps that George Pickens will be there, too. CeeDee Lamb may be as well.

Below you will find our stream for the...

Dallas Cowboys 2026 first-round picks tracker: Week 5 Update

The Dallas Cowboys are projected to hold, barring any future trades, two first-round picks during the 2026 NFL Draft.

Dallas obviously has their own first-round pick, but thanks to the Micah Parsons trade struck with the Green Bay Packers just before the 2025 season began, the Cowboys also hold the Pack’s pick as well. Dallas also received Green Bay’s 2027 first-round pick and defensive tackle Kenny Clark in the deal.

As the 2025 season rolls on we will be tracking the Cowboys’ first-round picks and updating this post every week. It goes without saying that we want Green Bay’s pick...

Hot Schotts: Brian Schottenheimer needs to do something about Matt Eberflus

Hot Schotts: Brian Schottenheimer needs to do something about Matt Eberflus

The Cowboys are very quickly being faced with a major conundrum: Matt Eberflus. It’s rare that a team fires a head coach – let alone an assistant – during their first year on the job. Yet, it’s becoming harder and harder to justify keeping Eberflus around. The Dallas defense has been utterly miserable all year, and their one moment offering hope – a Week 5 win over the winless Jets – quickly withered away in a demoralizing loss to the Panthers.

Brian Schottenheimer has made it clear he’s not even thinking about moving on from Eberflus. [On Monday, he had...

5 points: Takeaways from the Cowboys loss to the Panthers

5 points: Takeaways from the Cowboys loss to the Panthers

In football, the game is usually described as a game of inches. However, for the 2025 Dallas Cowboys, it seems to have become a game of yards. The Dallas defense continues to struggle, allowing opposing teams and their offenses to tee off against them, with the Carolina Panthers being the latest.

Bryce Young’s offense averaged 6.4 yards per play, with the real hero being Rico Dowdle, who had back-to-back games over 200 yards from scrimmage. The first player to do so since Dalvin Cook did it in 2020, and the first undrafted free agent to ever accomplish that.

Cowboys defense is going to set 2 NFL records this season

Cowboys defense is going to set 2 NFL records this season

Well, if you did not know after the first six weeks of the season, the Dallas Cowboys defense is far and away the worst in football, and show no signs of getting better, no matter what the owner has to say.

This defense is on pace to not only be worse than the one led by Mike Nolan in 2020, but is well on it’s way to be the worst the league has maybe ever seen.

I am not kidding when I say that, either.

Take a Look

Through the first six games of this season, the Cowboys have...

BTB Wednesday Discussion: Should the Cowboys entertain trading any players away?

BTB Wednesday Discussion: Should the Cowboys entertain trading any players away?

The Dallas Cowboys are 2-3-1 at the moment with games looming against the Washington Commanders and Denver Broncos. Speaking to the first one (Washington) in front of them, oddsmakers believe they will lose as the Commanders are favored even with the game set to take place at AT&T Stadium.

Imagine a world where the Cowboys drop these next two. They would fall to 2-5-1 on the season and any hope of a playoff berth would be only alive in a literal and mathematical sense (odds are fairly low right now as it is). It would stand to reason at that...

There’s a new King in the NFC East…for 1 week at least

What in the Wide World of Sports is going on out there in the NFC East?

The New York Giants were the only team in the division to win a game in Week 6? The Giants?

Seriously?

Here’s the scary part, not only for the Dallas Cowboys and their fanbase, but for the rest of the division too.

Let’s say the Giants roll into Denver next week and pull off another upset. Let’s further postulate that the Eagles lose at Minnesota and Dallas loses to Washington.

The Giants would be in third place, only a game behind both the Eagles...

George Pickens’ production is going to cost Cowboys in the offseason

George Pickens’ production is going to cost Cowboys in the offseason

George Pickens is off to a historic start as a member of the Dallas Cowboys. He has over 500 yards receiving and has caught six touchdowns through the first six games with the team, something that only Amari Cooper has ever done in franchise history.

Pickens has a bit more in common with Cooper, though. When Dallas traded for Cooper during the 2018 season, they did so with him in a position to sign a contract extension at that point in his career. Despite the fact that Cooper served as the catalyst of change for that season’s team, and propelled...
