Every week, we gather to discuss the latest news about the Dallas Cowboys and seek our writer’s perspective on each headline. Welcome back to the roundtable. This week we have David Howman, RJ Ochoa, and Jess Haynie.

What single defensive issue hurt most? Rush-lane discipline, communication, or tackling?

Mike: There was too many soft edges and uneven interior lanes that Jacoby Brissett used to break contain and extend plays, which in turn stressed the coverage and turned routine tackles into misses. If Dallas can clean up the lane integrity, containment issues, the communication hiccups, the tackling problems begin to...

We all understand how bad the Dallas Cowboys defense is, and it seems that every offense that plays them has their best day of the year. Well, with that said, a former Pro Bowl player was just cut yesterday and honestly, it wouldn’t hurt the Cowboys if they took a look.

The Tennessee Titans waived safety Quandre Diggs this week, exposing the 32-year-old veteran to waivers. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Diggs asked for and was granted his release.

Diggs was in his second season with the Titans.

This is actually the second season in a row in which...

The Dallas Cowboys are on a bye before prepping for the a Monday night game against the Las Vegas Raiders, a game Dallas is currently favored by 3.5 points according to FanDuel. An NFL bye week is a good time to look back at what a team has accomplished through the first part of their season, and around the Cowboys it has been mostly disappointment. Their 3-5-1 record is uninspiring, and the belief that they can make a playoff push is diminishing rapidly.

The easiest, and most common, explanation for the Cowboys current position is that their defense is wasting...

At 3-5-1, the Dallas Cowboys find themselves in unfamiliar territory, searching for answers at the halfway point of a disappointing season.

The bye week offers a rare moment for reflection, and as a lifelong Cowboys fan, it’s impossible not to dissect where things have gone wrong and where things can still be fixed.

There’s talent on this roster, but a series of glaring issues have held the team back from being a true contender.

Here are a few key takeaways from this much-needed break.

Run Defense is Still Lacking

Let’s start with one of the most frustrating part of...

After the Cowboys’ big trade for DT Quinnen Williams, many fans are wondering just what Dallas is getting in its new defensive centerpiece. We reached out to a friend of the site, Scott Mason from PlayLikeaJet.com, to get his take on the trade.

What was your gut reaction when you heard the news? Did you see this one coming at all?

“I wasn’t totally shocked because we’d been hearing whispers for a while. I understood why they did it, but I was disappointed because Quinnen is a game wrecker and still only 27.”

**Tell Cowboys fans about the kind...

The Dallas Cowboys enter their bye week at 3-5-1, and the timing couldn’t be more critical. The season isn’t lost, but it’s teetering on the edge.

For HC Brian Schottenheimer, this week represents far more than rest and recovery, it’s an opportunity to prove his mettle and establish that he’s capable of making the tough decisions required to save this season.

The team has already made aggressive moves to upgrade its defensive roster, most notably by trading for star DT Quinnen Williams and LB Logan Wilson.

All the new talent in the world won’t matter if the Cowboys don’t fix...

The Dallas Cowboys are in a bye week, but there are still things we can learn by looking back at the past game. The loss to the Arizona Cardinals was a big stumble by the team. There are some Cowboys’ rookies who are playing important roles this year, let’s check in on how they did in the most recent game.

OG Tyler Booker

(Game stats- Snaps: 67, Pass Blocks: 51, Pressures: 1, Sacks: 0, Penalties: 1)

Arizona brought a steady flow of simulated pressure and Booker generally did well. The Cowboys still surrendered five sacks and nine quarterback hits,...

If the Arizona Cardinals score less than 27 points against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, a strange trend for the Dallas Cowboys will live for one more week.

For the previous eight opponents, they have all seen the same thing happen the following week after playing the Cowboys.

They have all scored fewer points the week after playing Dallas than they did when they lined up against the Cowboys. For seven of those eight teams, they scored fewer points the week before playing Dallas too.

The only team to break the trend of scoring more the week before was Washington....

The Dallas Cowboys’ defense has been the talk of the season for obvious reasons. Time and time again, they have proven to be one of the worst units in the league.

However, not everything has been bad within the unit. If you watched the team’s primetime matchup with the Arizona Cardinals this past week, you may have noticed one defensive unit was playing their tails...
