Brian Schottenheimer is a current betting favorite to be next Cowboys head coach

The betting favorite to be the next Cowboys head coach is a bit of a surprising name.

It has been one week since the Dallas Cowboys and Mike McCarthy went their separate ways, and as of Monday morning following the Divisional Round both are still working on their next endeavor.

McCarthy has formally interviewed with the Chicago Bears and is reported to be a top candidate of the New Orleans Saints as well. On the Cowboys side of things they have conducted two formal interviews with Kellen Moore and Robert Saleh, but with them now officially able to interview [Detroit...

Defensive in Dallas: Which HC candidates best suit Cowboys’ defensive stars?

The Dallas Cowboys NFL head coaching search is well underway, and there have already been several names tied to the historic franchise. Bill Belichick removed himself from the list pretty early on, coming to an agreement with the North Carolina Tarheels for his first stint as a college head coach.

Mike Vrabel, the former Tennessee Titans head coach, returned home to New England to replace former Patriot Jerod Mayo. The Cowboys have set up interviews with former New York Jets HC Robert Saleh and Philadelphia Eagles OC Kellen Moore.

Strangely, it is rumored that the Cowboys don’t have any interest...

Why a new head coach isn’t enough to turn a 7-win team into a contender again

Why a new head coach isn’t enough to turn a 7-win team into a contender again

The Cowboys are looking for a new head coach, but that hardly guarantees them anything.

Many Dallas Cowboys fans are at least moderately excited about the prospect of getting a new coaching staff assembled. But the historical record of coaching changes on seven-win teams does not bode well for the 2025 Cowboys, especially given how prone this front office is to thinking that whatever changes (or the absence of changes, see 2024) they made one season will automatically elevate the franchise to contenders the next season.

Between the introduction of the salary cap in 1994 (to use a random but...

Rumored Cowboys Coaching Candidate Seemingly Now Out of the Running - Jovan Alford, SportDFW

It was a long shot to begin with.

On Saturday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport provided an update on the Cowboys’ coaching search and it doesn’t look like Coach Prime will be making his way to Dallas anytime soon.

Rapoport said the two sides do not have a formal interview scheduled yet, and he would be surprised if an interview ever happens. The NFL insider also added that Sanders is still in contract negotiations with Colorado “to potentially...

It’s official, this is the NFC’s worst franchise

It’s official, this is the NFC’s worst franchise

Saturday’s playoff game officially crowned the NFC’s worst franchise. Say hello to your Dallas Cowboys.

In a cruel twist of fate, the Washington Commanders are the reason why this is so.

Enjoy sprinkling that on your Wheaties this morning everyone.

The Commanders advanced to the NFC Championship game with a shocking upset win over Detroit. It’s the first time Washington will play for the title since 1991.

That makes the Cowboys the only team in the NFC not to have played in a conference championship game in the 21st Century.

It’s been 29 years since Dallas made it that deep...

One of these former Cowboys coordinators will be coaching in Super Bowl LIX in three weeks

The Cowboys will officially have a former coordinator headed to the Super Bowl.

Sometimes you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. That’s the feeling many fans of the Dallas Cowboys are feeling after seeing a couple of their former coaches advance to the NFC Championship game. On Saturday, the Washington Commanders shocked everyone with a 45-31 win over the top-seeded Detroit Lions. And then on Sunday, the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Los Angeles Rams 28-22. Just like that, two former Cowboys coordinators will be playing for the right to go to New Orleans and play in Super Bowl...

Cowboys need Marshawn Kneeland to develop rapidly with DeMarcus Lawrence a free agent

Marshawn Kneeland's progress in vital to the Cowboys defense.

It was a tumultuous season for the Dallas Cowboys when it came to injuries. Quarterback Dak Prescott and cornerback Trevon Diggs were shut down for the season with hamstring and knee injuries. However, the defensive end spot was hit extremely hard. Before the season began, Sam Williams tore his ACL, and All-Pro Micah Parsons had to miss four games with an ankle sprain.

However, the most significant injury came when veteran DeMarcus Lawrence went down for the year with a foot issue, something he's all too familiar with, and it happened...

Getting Offensive: Which head coach candidates benefit Cowboys star players on offense?

The 2024 NFL Playoffs are well underway, and there have already been a handful of upsets in the Wildcard and Divisional rounds. The NFC East’s Washington Commanders are responsible for two of those upsets.

First, in the Wildcard round over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a game-ending field goal that doinked off of the upright, then they dominated the top-seeded Detroit Lions in dominating fashion, putting up a season-high 45 points on the road.

The bad news about their upset is that the team best-equipped to defeat the Philadelphia Eagles is no longer in the picture. Philadelphia has already defeated...

What do you make of Pete Carroll as a potential option for the Cowboys job?

As the Cowboys inch closer to a full week of having a head coaching vacancy, they’ve already begun to hold several interviews. One name that has been mentioned a couple of times, but who has yet to be scheduled for an interview, is Pete Carroll.

The soon-to-be 74-year old coach led the Seahawks for 14 seasons, going to the Super Bowl in consecutive seasons and winning once, before stepping down after the 2023 season. Carroll has interviewed for the Bears and Raiders jobs already, is...

Lions playoff loss expands the Cowboys head coach search

Lions playoff loss expands the Cowboys head coach search

Yesterday, reports emerged of Dallas showing interest in Detroit Defensive Coordinator Aaron Glenn. However, they couldn’t interview him until the Lions were eliminated. Following a shocking upset, that hurdle is now cleared, and the Cowboys’ head coach search is now expanding.

We’ve all heard about the guys associated with Dallas’ initial interviews and interest; Kellen Moore, Deion Sanders, Robert Saleh, and Leslie Frazier. To be frank, the names mentioned to this point have either been lackluster, or far-fetched.

The Cowboys have been missing candidates who are highly regarded league-wide.

With the Lions’ loss, both Glenn and another top-tier coach are...

Why Kellen Moore is the right head coach for the Cowboys

Why Kellen Moore is the right head coach for the Cowboys

There is definitely a camp of people who want to see Kellen Moore return to the Cowboys.

The Dallas Cowboys are searching for a new head coach and one name that has gained a lot of traction is their old friend Kellen Moore. Not everyone welcomes bringing Moore back as some distinctly remember the bad stuff. From being bludgeoned by all the curl route rhetoric to seeing Ezekiel Elliott playing center on the final play he ever called, it doesn’t bring back great memories.

While those are things that people bring up, there’s a lot more to this. Regardless of...
