Blogging The Boys
The Dallas Cowboys 2025 season has been a roller-coaster that somehow has ended up in the mid-point between the ascent and the drop, a dead-even 3-3-1 record through seven games. Say what you want, but Cowboys games this year rarely lack for excitement. Overtime wins, overtime ties, last-second field goals, points lighting up the scoreboard; if nothing else, the Cowboys are entertaining this year.
But all that back and forth can take a toll on the fanbase. One week they’re up, the next they’re down. That’s the NFL though, a week-to-week league if there ever was one. And so this week Cowboys fans are feeling optimistic. The offense has always been there in 2025, but a decent game from the defense in the 44-22 thrashing of the Washington Commanders has elevated the mood around the team.
We asked Cowboys fans if they were confident the team was headed in the right direction and 64% said they were.
That is almost a season high, only after the Week 1 game against the Philadelphia Eagles was the confidence level higher at 68%.
While 64% are confident in the long-term direction of the team, that doesn’t play the same for everybody in the short-term. The Cowboys are 3.5-point underdogs (FanDuel) in their road game against the Denver Broncos. 53% of fans think Dallas will beat the Broncos in Week 8. That’s 11% less than the confidence in the long-term direction.
