Cowboys sign former 4th round pick after rash of injuries

Cowboys sign former 4th round pick after rash of injuries

The Dallas Cowboys are in the midst of a lost season. It’s a strange feeling to be looking towards the draft in mid-December, but the team’s ineptitude and sloppy play on the field have put us in this situation.

Of course, many factors go into how a season goes for an NFL team, and the Cowboys are no different. Many are calling for HC Mike McCarthy’s head after the season, and rightfully so. The Cowboys’ main problem continues to be self-inflicted mistakes, something McCarthy has been claiming to be working on for five years.

However, McCarthy might actually get a...

Cowboys predict another ‘tight’ budget looms in offseason, says Stephen Jones - SportsDay Staff, Dallas Morning News

Stephen Jones has already started setting expectations for 2025, and it may be a repeat of 2024 in terms of player acquisition.

“I think we knew we were going to have a challenge this year and next year,” Jones said of the team’s ability to spend on players.

“It’s going to be really, really tight because we still have some money left over from some guys who aren’t here today. And you’re...

One Player the Cowboys Fear on the Team

One Player the Cowboys Fear on the Team

The one player the Cowboys fear is on their roster. The fear may be warranted after what has happened in the past with the position.

The Dallas Cowboys quarterback room is very low on star power, and the current starter has little athleticism.

Cooper Rush is a good backup quarterback but should not be used for multiple games. Defenses know he will not and cannot throw it deep, which puts them in an advantageous position, which can be seen in every game.

The coaching staff and front office, probably primarily the front office, seem to fear giving Trey Lance a...

Cowboys historical notes from Bengals loss: Rico Dowdle is in rare territory

Cowboys historical notes from Bengals loss: Rico Dowdle is in rare territory

There were some notable historical marks set for the Cowboys as a result of Monday’s loss.

The Dallas Cowboys lost on Monday which is obviously very frustrating. Factoring in the exact nature in which the game ended, it is not a stretch to say it was one of the more frustrating losses of the entire season.

Ultimately the show goes on and the Cowboys will be back in action on Sunday afternoon against the Carolina Panthers. Before we fully move on to that game though, we have to properly bury what happened on Monday night and in the burial process...

Position battleground (offense): Cowboys vs. Panthers head-to-head breakdown

Is the Cowboys offense better than the Panthers?

It was a close defeat last week for the Dallas Cowboys but now it’s onto the Carolina Panthers to try and get back into winning spirits. So how do these two offenses stack up against another? Let’s dive in and find out.

QUARTERBACK

Cooper Rush

Bryce Young

Cooper Rush had some big misses last week and a few miscues that had the ball skipping off the ground with no receiver in the area. But he did hit on two very good touchdowns. The first came in the first quarter on...

Cowboys injury report: CeeDee Lamb, Trevon Diggs limited Thursday

The Cowboys injury report for Thursday

After their Monday night meltdown versus the Cincinnati Bengals, the Dallas Cowboys look to regroup and salvage a season that might have figuratively been over weeks ago. Their opponent this week, the Carolina Panthers, are 3-10, but have a renewed purpose. The Panthers are 2.5-point favorites (growing from 1.5-points earlier in the week), their first time being favored since 2022. However, that has something to do with the Cowboys’ many injuries. After Thursday’s practice, here’s where the Cowboys are regarding their injury report.

Still in the league’s concussion protocol, Cooper Beebe did not practice...

Whether you’re focused on Dallas’ 2025 draft pick or still holding on to playoff hopes, we’ve got something for you in this week’s rooting guide.

If you’re still hoping to see the Cowboys in the 2024 playoffs, last week’s games nearly closed the door on that dream.

Report: Bill Belichick group doubted Jerry Jones would hand over control in Dallas

Bill Belichick’s group reportedly doubted whether Jerry Jones would relinquish control of the Dallas Cowboys.

Some of our questions will be answered about a month from now. It is extremely likely that by then the Dallas Cowboys season will be over and that we will have received an answer on a very important question.

Who will be the team’s head coach in 2025?

At the moment, Mike McCarthy obviously holds that post, but given that he is finishing the final year of his original contract, and that it has been a year to say the least, it certainly seems possible,...

3 reasons why Mike McCarthy will be the Cowboys coach in 2025

If you’ve unplugged from the media coverage of this Cowboys season, you may be under the assumption that a head coaching search this offseason is a near certainty. However, if you have been reading the tea leaves closely, it seems Mike McCarthy may be extended after all.

In recent weeks, the embattled Dallas head coach has had the tides turn, with less talk about his firing and more about a new contract.

It isn’t as if the Cowboys are suddenly surging; they did win two games in a row but just lost to the Bengals. That dropped their record to...

3 positive things we have learned about the Cowboys after Week 14 loss

3 positive things we have learned about the Cowboys after Week 14 loss

There were some bright spots in the Cowboys Week 14 loss to the Bengals.

The Dallas Cowboys were riding high on a two-game winning streak coming into their Week 14 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. Unfortunately, due to not sticking to the running game and an inexcusable special teams blunder, Dallas ended up on the short end of the stick in a 27-20 loss. That puts them at 5-8 on the season, and that makes their already slim playoffs hopes even more difficult to achieve. Not to mention, they lost linebacker DeMarvion Overshown for the season with a major knee...

John Fassel’s special teams are racking up blunders along with their good plays

There are some not-so-special things about the Cowboys special teams.

The Dallas Cowboys lost on Monday night. That’s fine. Most fans expected such. In a way, it’s almost a relief as it doesn’t build any false hope that they’d make a push for the playoffs. This latest loss pretty much ends that.

But it’s not just that the Cowboys lost this week. They managed to play well for most of the game only to have the bottom drop out at the end. And just when you thought the special teams came through with a great play, they fumbled it away...
