The Chargers won the toss and deferred which put the Cowboys offense on the field first.
It was a very methodical and efficient drive for the Cowboys to get things started. Across 10 plays they traveled 79 yards and cashed in with a touchdown where Dak Prescott and Ryan Flournoy hooked up.
SCORE: COWBOYS 7, CHARGERS 0 (Dak Prescott to Ryan Flournoy touchdown)
It was seriously as ideal of a drive as you could have envisioned. Given that it was the first drive Dallas had after being mathematically eliminated from playoff contention only twisted the knife.
Up next was the...

The Cowboys are out of the playoffs, but still have to take on the Chargers.

The Cowboys were officially eliminated from playoff contention last night, but they still have something to play for against the Chargers: pride. Now, with just under 90 minutes until kickoff, we know who won’t be suiting up for this one.
The big name is Quinnen Williams, who suffered a concussion in last week’s game. Williams went from a DNP to a full participant in practice, but was unable to get the final go and will be inactive. As expected, Tyler Guyton remains on the inactive list for another consecutive week, meaning another start for Nate Thomas.
Williams and Guyton join...

Last night, the Dallas Cowboys were officially eliminated from playoff contention after the Philadelphia Eagles’ win over the Washington Commanders. While that was an inevitable end to their chances, this season isn’t over, especially for George Pickens.
The 24-year-old, whose rookie contract ends after Week 18 concludes, exceeded all expectations as a Cowboy for nearly the entirety of the 2025 campaign.
Pickens leads Dallas in targets, receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns, while also appearing in the top-three league-wide in the yardage category. It has been a true breakout season that was going as well as it could, up until a...

The last time the Cowboys were on the field, they still had a mathematical shot at the playoffs. But, as has been the case all year, things were very out of their control. That run came to an end Saturday night, when the Eagles beat the Commanders to not only clinch the NFC East but eliminate the Cowboys.
That means when they take the field to face the Chargers, all they have left to play for is love of the game. Sometimes that results in spirited wins, as this team demonstrated last year against the Buccaneers, and sometimes it doesn’t....

The Dallas Cowboys enter Week 16 looking for a victory against Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers.
Unfortunately, the Eagles’ victory over the Washington Commanders has officially eliminated the Cowboys from playoff contention.
No matter, according to HC Brian Schotttenheimer, the Cowboys will play to win, regardless of the circumstances.
Nearing the end of the season, there will be players hitting milestones with stats, and one of those players is Dak Prescott.
Prescott has a chance to add to a great season, and he has three games left to tie a Cowboys’ franchise record for most 4,000 yard passing...

The Dallas Cowboys were eliminated from playoff contention on Saturday night. Obviously we all understood over the last few weeks (even before that) how long their odds of going to the postseason were, but things becoming official makes them, well, official.
As this is the case it means that the next time that Dallas can reach the playoffs, speaking literally, is the 2026 season. You have to make the playoffs in order to do things like reach the Super Bowl and/or NFC Championship Game (something we know all too well, unfortunately) and all of this officially means that The Drought™...

The Dallas Cowboys host the Los Angeles Chargers for their final home game of what’s been another disappointing season and finishing outside of the playoffs for the second year in a row. Just as the Cowboys missed the playoffs in the final year of Jason Garrett’s tenure and first year of Mike McCarthy’s, Dallas is doing the same moving on from McCarthy to Brian Schottenheimer.
There have been positive flashes under Schottenheimer that show he may still be the right coach to make a deep playoff run in seasons to come, but the overall reality of this team having a...

The Dallas Cowboys will play their final regular season home game this afternoon. They close the year out on the road in Washington D.C. and in New York against NFC East rivals.
Thanks to the results from yesterday’s Eagles-Commanders game, the Cowboys will be playing for pride this afternoon.
It might be advisable for Dallas to give some of their back-ups more playing time starting today. The Cowboys need to evaluate who stays and who goes in 2026.
There is no better time than now to begin that process.
The Chargers can run the ball with a 1-2 punch of...

The Dallas Cowboys have been eliminated from the playoffs for the 2025 NFL season. With the Philadelphia Eagles beating the Washington Commanders, Brian Schottenheimer’s first season will end out of the tournament. They have three games left with nothing to play for but pride… or maybe draft position. Anyway, today they take on the Los Angeles Chargers, a team that is looking forward to a playoff run.
The Cowboys have stated that they are going to play to win even if they were eliminated, and it is likely they will roll out their regular unit this week. Teams tend to...

With DaRon Bland going on injured reserve, the Cowboys are bringing Trevon Diggs back on the active roster.
FRISCO, Texas — Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs will be on the field for the first time in more than two months.
The Cowboys activated Diggs off injured reserve on Saturday, giving the two-time Pro Bowl cornerback the opportunity to play Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. To make room for Diggs on the roster, the Cowboys placed cornerback DaRon Bland, who is facing surgery...

Every year when I build a mock draft, I try to strip away the noise.
Fan bias, team needs shouted into existence, consensus boards that start to feel more like group thinking rather than evaluation.
My first-round mock draft isn’t about playing it safe, it’s about how I believe the NFL actually thinks when the clock is on.
And the truth is: upside wins.
I finished my first-round mock draft and I already know it won’t be for everyone.
