In all probability, the Dallas Cowboys will be fighting to save their season when they close out the month of October with a Week 8 game at Denver.

The Broncos were a 10-win team last year and made the playoffs as a wildcard. This coming after going through seven-straight losing seasons.

In just his second year as Broncos head coach, Sean Payton turned the franchise around.

That was to be expected from a Super Bowl-winning coach.

Now he’s in year three and he has transformed the offense in Denver. The defense has also made a significant turnaround, giving up the...

Mailbag: Trade a receiver for defensive help? – Mickey Spagnola & Tommy Yarrish, DallasCowboys.com

Is the wide receiver room deep enough to consider trade for an area of need?

Since the wide receiver room has good depth, would it make sense to look at trading someone like Jalen Tolbert for a defensive tackle or cornerback*? Is there any other position group deep enough to use in a swap?***– Gene Rankin/Hedgesville, WV**

Mickey: Well, here is what happens as soon as you trade away depth. Someone gets hurt. And darn if your “deep” wide receiver room didn’t...

The Dallas Cowboys still have one preseason game remaining against the Atlanta Falcons before they have to get under the league mandated 53-man roster limit, but one game shouldn’t alter the decision-making process too much. Odds are Brian Schottenheimer and his coaching staff already have a pretty good idea of who’s staying and who’s going, especially if you read between the lines of what he said recently.

“We’ll sit down and make some decisions about the entire roster,” Schottenheimer told reporters. “There will probably be a few surprises compared to the projections out there, where people might say, I...

Every week, we gather to discuss the latest news about the Dallas Cowboys and seek our writer’s perspective on each headline. Welcome back to the roundtable. This week we have David Howman, Jess Haynie, and Brian Martin.

Has your opinion on Andrew Booth changed at all during this preseason? And does that make you feel better or worse for the cornerback position?

The Dallas Cowboys failed to score a touchdown on offense, but the sole touchdown did come from an unlikely defensive hero, Andrew Booth. The pick-six Booth scored showed great anticipation and athleticism to get downfield and score,...

Yes, another post about Micah Parsons because, well, right now it is the biggest story for the Dallas Cowboys.

It has not gone the way that all of us fans have wanted, and recent reports have come out that the Dallas Cowboys and Parsons may be on the verge of a divorce.

That is the word that ESPN’s Adam Schefter used when giving an update on Monday about the contract situation.

What Was Said?

Schefter reported the Dallas Cowboys and Micah Parsons are likely headed for a divorce “at some time.” Parsons and the Cowboys are currently in a...

Few doubt that George Pickens is going to have a good first season with the Dallas Cowboys. But with CeeDee Lamb already a target-eating monster, just how big a year can Pickens have? At least one football writer thinks it could be enough to send Pickens to his first career Pro Bowl.

The Cowboys would love to see several members of their 2025 roster reach their first Pro Bowl, as it would likely coincide with a successful season for the team as a whole. However, with many key players already having gone at least once, even a strong overall year...

A report from NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero suggests the Minnesota Vikings are actively searching the trade market for a veteran wide receiver.

With Jordan Addison suspended and several injuries hitting their depth chart, Minnesota is looking for stability at the position.

Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys could have the perfect trade partner.

Having executed player-for-player swaps in recent offseasons, Dallas may once again use this approach to address a major roster weakness.

The Perfect Surplus

Jalen Tolbert entered the league in 2022 as a 3rd round pick with expectations of becoming a key rotational piece for the Cowboys’ passing attack....

The Dallas Cowboys have about a week to go before they have to make a decision. It is almost 53-man roster time.

Soon enough we will know which group the Cowboys will carry with them into the 2025 season. It should be noted that there will be some roster gymnastics played early on and that there will a volatile 48 hours or so before the roster is officially set, so consider our discussion today one of a practical matter.

What we want to know for our Wednesday chat here at BTB is who you think will be the shocker relative...

The NFL preseason always sparks a heated debate: should teams give their starters real reps in August or rest them to avoid injuries before the games start counting?

Fans and media often overreact to preseason strategies, but the most successful teams actually commit to one philosophy—either resting starters completely or using careful scripted reps.

Two Proven Philosophies

The “Sit Everyone” Model: Eagles & Rams

Sean McVay perfected this with the 2021 Rams, resting Matthew Stafford and key starters entirely during preseason—and still won Super Bowl LVI.

The Philadelphia Eagles, under Nick Sirianni, adopted the same approach—opting for...

The Dallas Cowboys are now through two preseason games, and head coach Brian Schottenheimer has limited time to figure out before cutting down to 53 players. On Monday, he hinted at some surprises being in the works, with guys making the roster that aren’t currently being projected by the media to do so, and vice versa.

Well, Coach, challenge accepted. Here’s another attempt at predicting the Cowboys’ 53-man roster after the team’s uninspiring loss to the Ravens on Saturday. We’ve added in some surprises as Schotty suggested.

Facing a real possibility of being 3-3 one-third of the way into the 2025 season, the Dallas Cowboys will hit a critical two-game test for the 2025 season.

It will literally be a make-or-break stretch for Dallas. They will face two 2024 playoff teams back-to-back.

Both are legitimate contenders to win their respective conference championships on the final Sunday of January 2026.

A win against either the Washington Redskins Commanders at home or the Broncos in Denver and the Cowboys are still in the hunt.

Lose both games and Dallas is almost certainly below .500. With the brutal schedule that...
