Cowboys at Raiders Historical Notes: George Pickens is doing something special

Cowboys at Raiders Historical Notes: George Pickens is doing something special

The Dallas Cowboys had their way with the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday night and as a result the spirits around America’s Team are high for the first time in a while. Winning is a wonderful feeling.

It remains to be seen as to whether or not the Cowboys can truly go on a magical run, make the playoffs, and all of that jazz. For now we are just taking things week by week. If things work out in the end we will celebrate accordingly.

As it relates to the Cowboys and where they are at following the Raiders win,...

Cowboys injuries: Dak Prescott, several other starters limited in practice

The Dallas Cowboys soundly beat the Las Vegas Raiders and you hope they carry that momentum back home with them. This week, the Cowboys will be at home against the NFC East-leading Philadelphia Eagles.

As always, how Dallas prepares for the game will depend on the personnel they have available. Here’s how the Cowboys are looking after the first day of practice this week.

Cowboys and Eagles thoughts, from a Philly perspective

Cowboys and Eagles thoughts, from a Philly perspective

Greetings, Dallas Cowboys fans!

In case you weren’t already aware, this is Brandon Lee Gowton from Bleeding Green Nation — the home of SB Nation’s Philadelphia Eagles coverage.

Ahead of this week’s Eagles-Cowboys game, we’re trying something new at BGN and Blogging The Boys. In addition to the normal coverage you can expect at both sites, I’m going to be doing some writing here at BTB while RJ Ochoa is going to be contributing over at BGN (here is RJ’s article over on our site). We’re also going to be active in the comment sections of our posts, so, sign...

5 plays that helped Cowboys defeat the Raiders

5 plays that helped Cowboys defeat the Raiders

The Dallas Cowboys got back onto the football field and back in the win column, coming out of their bye week with a victory over the struggling Raiders. In truth, this game was never close, and the 33-16 final score doesn’t reflect how lopsided this one really was. These five plays were instrumental in the Cowboys pulling ahead early.

Kenny Clark and Quinnen Williams sack Geno Smith

The Cowboys offense did not start the game off right. After going three-and-out on their first drive, the second drive resulted in a strip-sack that set the Raiders up in the red...

Dallas Cowboys 2026 first-round picks tracker: Week 11 Update

Dallas Cowboys 2026 first-round picks tracker: Week 11 Update

The Dallas Cowboys are projected to hold, barring any future trades, two first-round picks during the 2026 NFL Draft.

Dallas obviously has their own first-round pick, but thanks to the Micah Parsons trade struck with the Green Bay Packers just before the 2025 season began, the Cowboys also hold the Pack’s pick as well. Dallas also received Green Bay’s 2027 first-round pick and defensive tackle Kenny Clark in the deal.

As the 2025 season rolls on we will be tracking the Cowboys’ first-round picks and updating this post every week. It goes without saying that we want Green Bay’s pick...

3 questions from Cowboys Week 11 win over Raiders

3 questions from Cowboys Week 11 win over Raiders

After a terrific Monday night victory in Las Vegas, the Cowboys have entered the second half of their 2025 season with some momentum. There are still some big unknowns for this team going forward, though. What are three questions still hanging over Dallas even after the Raiders win?

1. Is it too late?

While we enjoyed the W, it still only brought the Cowboys’ record to 4-5-1. They’re still just tenth in the NFC standings, with the ninth-place Panthers at 6-5 and holding a head-to-head tiebreaker. The last wild card spot is currently held by the 7-4 49ers. So...

2025 NFL Week 12: Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles

2025 NFL Week 12: Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles

The Dallas Cowboys are back in AT&T Stadium this week. It has been a minute.

Since the Cowboys last played a home game they went on bye, traded for two players (one of them being Quinnen Williams), and traveled to play a regular season game in Las Vegas for the first time ever (a game they won soundly). This covers the football of it all, but the team has also been dealing with the tragic death of Marshawn Kneeland in the time since as well.

This week the Cowboys will play their first home game without Kneeland and the emotions...

Top 3 Quarterbacks in the NFL Right Now (Nov 2025 Edition)

Top 3 Quarterbacks in the NFL Right Now (Nov 2025 Edition)

When it comes to the NFL in 2025, the quarterback position remains the center of gravity—where leadership, skill, and clutch performance collide. Fans debate endlessly on who’s truly “the best,” but looking at consistency, numbers, and sheer playmaking, a few names rise above the field.

Here’s our ranking of the top three quarterbacks in the NFL as of today, based on their 2025 season performance to-date, leadership impact, and overall dominance.

  1. Patrick Mahomes – Kansas City Chiefs

If there’s any debate about the top spot, Patrick Mahomes has a way of silencing it. The two-time MVP and multiple...

Quinnen Williams’ Next Gen stats from his Dallas Cowboys debut

Quinnen Williams’ Next Gen stats from his Dallas Cowboys debut

Monday night was significant for the Dallas Cowboys. It was their first game out of the bye and their first opportunity to play with their two newest toys in Logan Wilson and Quinnen Williams. Both players were acquired at the trade deadline which came during the team’s bye week.

With all due respect to Logan Wilson, the name that everybody was curious about seeing was Quinnen Williams. Dallas gave up significantly more to acquire Williams, and in the process of doing so gave themselves one of the best interior defensive linemen in the NFL. This is not something the Cowboys...

BTB Wednesday Discussion: Do you actually have hope for the playoffs?

BTB Wednesday Discussion: Do you actually have hope for the playoffs?

The Dallas Cowboys won on Monday night. Winning is a wonderful emotion. It marked the first Cowboys win in some time (the previous instance was the one against the Washington Commanders), and despite everything that has happened since, you can’t help but mention the p-word.

Playoffs.

The Cowboys have a lot of ground to make up for a potential NFC Wild Card spot, they are 4-5-1 and the current last spot is held by the 7-4 San Francisco 49ers, but there are still seven games left on the season. As people love to say, anything is possible.

3 things we learned about the Cowboys after win vs. Raiders

3 things we learned about the Cowboys after win vs. Raiders

The Dallas Cowboys needed a win on Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders. With the memory of fallen teammate Marshawn Kneeland on their minds, the Cowboys did just that with a dominant 33-16 victory.

That puts Dallas at 4-5-1 on the season. Now, they enter a gauntlet of more challenging opponents with the Philadelphia Eagles, Kansas City Chiefs, and Detroit Lions on deck over the next several weeks. So, the Cowboys won’t likely look as impressive in the near future. With that being said, the NFL is a week-to-week league, and Dallas did what they had to do against...
