2 Cowboys predicted as 2025 season award winners - Mario Herrera Jr, Inside The Star

2025 has the potential to be a big year.

Dak Prescott: Comeback Player of the Year

After an injury-riddled and inconsistent 2024 campaign, Dak Prescott enters 2025 with a clean bill of health and a lot to prove.

The Cowboys’ veteran signal-caller is in prime position to recapture his Pro Bowl form, loading up for a season that will remind fans and critics alike why Dak was once considered one of the league’s elite quarterbacks.

Under new HC Brian Schottenheimer and a retooled offensive line offering better protection for Prescott to throw to weapons like CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and TE Jake Ferguson, he is set up for efficiency and production.

Dak’s strong leadership and internal motivation, fueled by constant media scrutiny, are driving forces behind what could be a 4,000+ yard, 30+ touchdown season.

The “comeback” label isn’t just about physical recovery. It’s about narrative redemption.

If Prescott can lead the Cowboys back to double-digit wins and a postseason berth, Kahan believes the award will be his to lose.

Titans head coach says what Cowboys fans already knew about Tony Pollard- Jerry Trotta, The Landry Hat

It seems Jerry made the correct move.

Cowboys already vindicated for not extending Tony Pollard in 2024

Callahan’s vision for the Titans’ backfield proves he doesn’t view Pollard as a workhorse. That became evident in Pollard’s final season with the Cowboys in 2023.

A fourth-round pick in 2019, Pollard’s most efficient seasons came when he operated in a committee with Ezekiel Elliott. Pollard averaged 5.5 and 5.2 yards per carry in 2021 and 2022, respectively. While he logged 193 carries in 2022, Elliott still led the charge with 213 carries.

While Pollard was potentially hampered by offseason ankle surgery for the first half of the 2023 season, his efficiency plummeted to 4.0 yards per carry.

In addition, his 2.92 yards after contact per attempt was comfortably the worst of his career and he produced 10 fewer explosive runs relative to 2022 on 58 fewer carries, per Pro Football Focus (subscription required).

It’s no wonder Callahan wants to get Tyjae Spears more involved. A third-round pick in 2023, Spears was limited to five games last season due to injuries. Despite being in and out of the lineup, Spears carries a lot of momentum into 2025 after he scored four TDs in the final three games last season.

It would go a long way in helping Dallas.

“The team was ecstatic to see Revel fall to the second round in April’s draft, but didn’t pull the trigger. Somehow he made it to the third round. With Dallas clearly looking to end their investment in Trevon...
