Dallas Cowboys
The playoffs start this weekend, and while the Cowboys didn’t make the tournament this season, a number of former Cowboys are playing for playoff teams this weekend.
Some of the obvious ones are recent departures like Trevon Diggs, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Rico Dowdle, but I thought there had to be more, so I looked up the rosters of the 14 playoff teams and scanned those rosters for familiar names. What I found were 20 players on playoff rosters that had been with the Cowboys at one time in the past.
Here’s an overview of which former Cowboys are playoff-bound while...

Every offseason it seems like I see a linebacker’s name pop up that the Cowboys need to get to help the defense. This year it may be Quincy Williams.
Could he be the guy the middle of the defense is missing?
I’ve seen some reactions, and when you dig into the type of player he is the coverage numbers may make you second guess. And honestly, I get it because it doesn’t look pretty.
When you actually dig into how Quincy Williams plays, and how he is used, the conversation changes fast.
So let’s talk it through like fans, not...

When sifting through the wreckage of the Dallas Cowboys’2025 season, the offense is the only unit that emerges unscathed.
The Cowboys were 2nd in both total yards (6,663) and passing yards (4,527).
Dallas was 9th in rushing yards (2,136) and 7th in points with 471. Those numbers would get most teams into the playoffs with ease.
But most teams wouldn’t be saddled with the defense that the Cowboys’ offense had to overcome on top of the opponent’s own defense on a weekly basis.
Dallas’ offense finished tied with the Cardinals and Chargers for 14th in total turnovers (21).

The Cowboys may reside in Stillwater as far as the state of Oklahoma is concerned, but the Dallas Cowboys now hold court in Norman. It was reported on Thursday afternoon that former Cowboys tight end Jason Witten is joining the Oklahoma Sooners staff as their tight ends coach, and in case you did not know, DeMarco Murray is their running backs coach.
This is Witten’s first foray into the collegiate coaching ranks, but he has a Texas state championship under his belt at the high school level so he has succeeded where he has been so far, and it stands...

The season is done, and it didn’t end in a way most Dallas Cowboys fans wanted. They lost their final game of the season to the New York Giants and it wasn’t pretty. But how did the Cowboys rookie class perform in their final game of their inaugural season? Let’s jump in and find out.
(Game stats- Snaps: 55, Pass Blocks: 27, Pressures: 2, Sacks: 0, Penalties: 0)
Booker went the distance at right guard against the Giants, logging all 55 offensive snaps in the 34–17 loss at MetLife Stadium, and this was one of the...

The Dallas Cowboys won’t be playing in the playoffs this season. Again. As they turn the page and look to regroup, a great deal of attention will be directed at fixing the defense. The team took its first step by firing defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus on Tuesday. A new guy running the defense, combined with some new players from April’s draft, will go a long way in determining if they can get back on track.
The Cowboys currently own the 12th overall pick thanks to finishing with a losing record for the second straight season. They also own the rights...

The Dallas Cowboys will not be representing The Star in the 2025 NFL Playoffs, but there are still some good things to take away from the season.
For one, the offense was electric, and only seemed to struggle when forced to play one-dimensionally because the defense couldn’t get a stop to save their lives.
QB Dak Prescott is at the head of the league’s top-scoring offense.
With weapons like wide receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens to throw to, it’s no wonder he led the league in passing yards until sitting out the second half of the Week 18 finale...

In Wednesday’s postmortem press conference for the Dallas Cowboys’ 2025 season, Jerry Jones, Stephen Jones, and Brian Schottenheimer covered a lot of topics. One of the biggest sound bites from the media session was Jerry’s expressed goal of finishing his ownership run with the most Super Bowls in NFL history. While highly unrealistic at this point, the brazen statement also reflected just how misguided Jones’s effort to achieve that feat is, and how little he even understands his own motivation.
There were several moments on Wednesday when Jones tried to reassure Cowboys fans that he was as passionate about winning...

The Dallas Cowboys aimed for a fresh start in 2025, but the results were pretty much the same as a season ago. Sadly, the Cowboys ended up with yet another losing season for the second year in a row. For consecutive years they’ve only managed to win a total of seven games. and they’ll need to make some major moves in the offseason to prevent that from happening yet again.
As disappointing as the 2025 season was for the Cowboys, there were some bright spots that kept us locked in and entertained throughout the year. We’re highlighting some of those...
