Inside The Star
When the 2025 schedule was released back in the spring, it was clear to every one, even Jerry Jones, that the Dallas Cowboys had to be at .500 or better by the bye week.
Six of the final seven games of the season would be against teams that made the playoffs in 2024 and would likely do so again.
The Cowboys 2025 bye week is next week, the 10th week of the season. They head into that bye now two games below .500 at 3-5-1 after Monday night’s loss to Arizona.
In short, this season is over at the midway point and this news must be made perfectly clear to Jones.
Do you honestly believe the team we saw last night isn’t going to get chewed up and spit out by the Eagles, Chiefs, Chargers, Lions, and Vikings?
Shoot, the Raiders will probably be favored to win in Week 11 when the Cowboys next take the field in Vegas. Probably because this guy is going to shred the Cowboys’ defense.
This story will run at six this morning Central time. I will post it around 11 p.m. on Monday night.
Jones, allegedly, has one trade in place to be filed sometime before this afternoon’s deadline.
He alleges that two more deals are in the mix.
I will say just this: Don’t bother. Call those teams up and tell them you changed your mind.
There are no combination of trades that can save this season.
So save the picks instead.
Trade some of the dead weight on this team, yes. But save all the picks you currently have for 2026.
Because it is time to commit to a full rebuild after this shipwreck sinks to the bottom.
No one is safe from the trade block after Monday night’s (non)performance.
No coach’s job is safe either. Nor should anyone in the front office feel comfortable that they will remain employed after the season finale in New York.
And that goes double for the Owner/GM and his trusty sidekick, Cap Boy Blunder.
It’s time for the fan base to save the franchise and to do that we all must make a second thing clear to Jones.
The remaining eight games of the 2025 schedule are evenly split. Four at AT&T, four on the road.
At all four remaining home games, from the moment the first fan arrives to stand in line before the game, until an hour after they turn off the lights, you have one job.
Stand there and chant: SELL THE TEAM.
Yell it loud and clear every time the Arkansas snake oil salesman’s image graces the jumbo screens at AT&T.
Yell it every time you see him out in public. Every time any member of this accursed family shows their face, you must rain down these three words upon their ears:
SELL THE TEAM!
The 2025 season is lost. It’s time that we fight to save all the seasons that follow.
And the only...
