The 2025 NFL season is nearing it’s end, and with it comes the hope for the playoffs for some teams, while others are already working on draft boards.

Sadly for Dallas Cowboys fans, America’s Team is taking another year off from the postseason, and heads into New York with a chance to pull to 8-8-1.

It is also that time of year for the NFL Hall of Fame Committee to announce who is eligible for the distinguished honor of receiving a gold jacket this upcoming fall.

The Hall of Fame ceremonies kick off in early August, headlined by the first...

At long last, it’s finally over. Well, almost over. The Cowboys’ 2025 season went from promising to discouraging to hopeful and then nightmarish. They’re out of the playoffs now and face a Giants team with no playoff hopes of their own to spoil. All that’s left, as they say, is the shouting, and it has our writers uncertain about what to expect.

It’s hard to believe, but the last time these teams met, Russell Wilson was the starter. He also had the game of his life, and was benched the...

The Dallas Cowboys will end their season today with a game against their NFC East rivals, the New York Giants. The game will be on the road and carry no impact beyond draft position for 2026. The line from the Dallas camp is they want to win to reach 8-8-1 and avoid a losing season.

As such, it is expected that healthy starters will play, including Dak Prescott. How long those guys will play is unknown. Brian Schottenheimer could go for the win and play them the whole game, or he could give some down-roster guys a chance to shine....

Phil Mafah could see action against vs. the Giants. Here’s what to expect from his downhill style and how Jaydon Blue’s speed complements him in Dallas.

Phil Mafah Will See the Field, Finally

I’ll keep it simple: I want to see Phil Mafah get real work.

When the Cowboys play the New York Giants, the season picture isn’t changing. But the evaluation can happen, and that is where this game gets interesting for me.

Dallas drafted Phil Mafah and Jaydon Blue for a reason. Not because they’re the same kind of back, but because they are opposites.

Cowboys Rumors on Potential Coaching Staff Changes Amid Matt Eberflus Hot-Seat Buzz – Mike Chiari, Bleacher report

After a disappointing season defensively, the Cowboys could be making a move at defensive coordinator but nothing concrete as of yet.

The Dallas Cowboys are reportedly expected to make some changes to their defensive coaching staff at the end of the 2025 season. According to NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, it is “likely” some new coaches will be brought in on the defensive side of the ball, but “no decision has been made” yet on defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus. Rapoport...

The last time these two teams met, the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants put on an offensive show.

It was especially offensive if you are a fan of defensive football.

As it was, the Cowboys made Russell Wilson look 10 years younger. It took a 64-yard field goal by Brandon Aubrey just to get the game into overtime.

Aubrey’s 46-yard field goal as time expired prevented a tie game in a 40-37 win by the Cowboys.

The way the 2025 season played out, maybe it would have been fitting to have the franchise’s first-ever two-tie season.

Christmas may have come and gone, but there will be one present left for fans this season when they turn on their televisions tomorrow to watch the season finale—it’s Phil Mafah time.

Ahead of the Dallas Cowboys’ Week 18 matchup with the New York Giants, the Cowboys decided to send their top two running backs, Javonte Williams and Malik Davis, to injured reserve. They also added starting left guard T.J. Bass to the IR.

With three roster spots open, Dallas decided to activate Mafah, cornerback Josh Butler, and rookie linebacker Justin Barron. They will also be elevating offensive lineman Nick...

The Panthers and the Buccaneers try to settle the NFC South. Then the Seahawks and the 49ers try to settle NFC top seeding.

This is an open thread for game chat.

All season long we’ve been asking Cowboys fans how confident they were in the direction of the team. If you graph the results, they will closely follow wins and losses. There are some variables, like the close loss to the Philadelphia Eagles to start the season. Going into that game, on the heels of trading Micah Parsons, the team only had 35% confidence from fans. After losing 24-20, confidence rose to 68%. The next week Dallas beat the New York Giants in overtime, but actually dropped the confidence back to 38%.

Confidence reached a season-low 7% when the Cowboys got...

We are in Week 18 of the regular season, and I’d like to say I’m looking forward to the playoffs, but that would be a white lie.

The Dallas Cowboys, despite having the top scoring offense in the NFL for most of the 2025 season, will not be representing the NFC East in the playoffs for the second consecutive year.

It was a bit of a shock to the fanbase, who had not seen the Cowboys miss consecutive seasons of the postseason since 2019-2020, and before that, not since 2012-2013.

Brian Schottenheimer’s first year was successful in many ways, but...

In this episode of Between the Lines, we flip the attention to the defensive line, where chaos meets strategy. This is where the Cowboys’ games are won and lost so let’s dive in.

This time tomorrow, the Dallas Cowboys will be gearing up for their final game of the 2025 season; at best, it will be their first .500 season since the 2019 campaign — at its worst, 7-9-1.

That would be the first losing season Dak Prescott has had in a year when he was fully healthy.

Based on that, and what we’ve seen on screen since September, it is clear that changes must be made in Dallas this offseason. The top-end talent on the roster is too good for years like this.

The good news is they can make those needed...
