The New York Giants just couldn’t help themselves.

Sunday delivered football fans the Number One Overall Pick Bowl in Sin City as the Giants visited the Las Vegas Raiders with the loser of the game “winning” the number one overall pick. Tanking (losing on purpose) is a practice that many frown upon, but when your team has been as moribund as the Giants and Raiders both have been for some time, the number one overall pick can represent a lot of hope and promise.

As Dallas Cowboys fans, it goes without saying that we do not want to see the...

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 Mike Poland and David Howman.

When Washington tried to bracket CeeDee Lamb did Dallas have the right answers?

Mike: Yes, and that’s what made the win feel more repeatable than fluky. When Washington pushed coverage to Lamb, Dallas didn’t force-feed him, they looked elsewhere. You saw more reduced splits and motion to identify coverage, then the use of quick passes, including over the middle to Jake Ferguson, to stay...

More Sunday games for your enjoyment.

The Dallas Cowboys are going to be significantly better on defense in 2026 because of the fact that Quinnen Williams will be on their team. Keep in mind that we are defining “better” as to being better than what we have seen across 2025. Obviously that bar is low.

Important context aside, you would figure that any trade where you gave up a first-round pick would make you better. That is the idea behind paying such an expensive price.

While the Cowboys paid top dollar for Quinnen Williams, they did the exact opposite for their other trade as they sent...

The NFL’s Week 17 slate of games feels like it has lasted forever, as the Thursday Christmas Day matchups led to the Saturday slate, before now turning the page to its plethora of Sunday games.

Don’t even get me thinking about the Monday night game tomorrow.

Alas, these preceding games have given us playoff clarity, as only four teams (Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Carolina, and Tampa Bay) remain fighting for playoff spots.

That doesn’t mean we won’t see great action outside the playoff-hungry squads, however. There are still critical matchups for the postseason seeding and games that hold other big implications,...

The Dallas Cowboys managed to scrape a win on Christmas Day against the Washington Commanders in a game that got close, closer than what some fans would have preferred. But how did the Cowboys rookie class perform during the divisional victory? Let’s take a look.

OG Tyler Booker

(Game stats- Snaps: 92, Pass Blocks: 49, Pressures: 1, Sacks: 2, Penalties: 1)

Booker turned in another heavy-workload performance against Washington on Christmas Day, playing all 92 offensive snaps and earning a 74.6 overall grade, one of the better marks on the Cowboys’ offense in the 30–23 win. Dallas leaned hard...

It is that time of year in the NFL where games are strategically scheduled on holidays like Christmas Eve and Christmas.

The Dallas Cowboys played on Christmas Day this year, holding on for a road victory over the Washington Commanders to bring their record to 7-8-1.

Washington dropped to 3-12, remaining somewhere in the five to eight range in the top ten picks, while the victory kept the Cowboys in the 13-16 range.

Obviously, fans would like a higher draft pick, but after the Cowboys were officially eliminated after the loss to the Chargers at home, HC Brian Schottenheimer vowed...

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a classic story that many have read and even more are familiar with. It’s also an apt description of the stark differences between the Cowboys offense and defense, specifically their coaches.

On offense, things are going fairly well. Dak Prescott is approaching the passing yards crown for the first time in his career; Javonte Williams broke 1,000 rushing yards for the first time in his career; CeeDee Lamb just joined Michael Irvin as the only other player in franchise history with five straight 1,000-yard seasons; and George Pickens is in...

I love watching Dallas Cowboys football, and when I see the ball snap I see it like any other fan. I watched 94 plays get a score and wondered how often they finish a play with points.

No guessing, just facts through 16 games.

Dallas has run 1,066 plays and produced 94 scoring plays. That equals 9.1% of all plays ending in a score, or about one score every 11 plays.

The Cowboys Lead the League in Plays

We know the Dallas Cowboys run a lot of plays. [By this I mean the 1,066 plays are the most...

There is one game left on the Dallas Cowboys 2025 schedule, and it is once again a road division game versus a team Dak Prescott has owned throughout his career.

Prescott has dominated the New York Giants since dropping his first two games against them his rookie season by a combined four points.

The Giants have had no answer for Prescott, as the quarterback of America’s Team has bested the team from The Big Apple in 14 consecutive games.

While we fully expect Prescott to add another 300-yard passing day to his league-leading 2025 total, he doesn’t need to pass...

George Pickens franchise tag: What would Dallas Cowboys’ decision cost? – Josh Sanchez, Cowboys on SI

If the Cowboys opted to franchise George Pickens, how much it would be?

The Dallas Cowboys were eliminated from NFL playoff contention in Week 16 and now have just one game remaining in the 2025-26 campaign. After the team’s Week 18 showdown against the New York Giants, the Cowboys can officially turn their attention to the offseason.

It’s going to be an interesting offseason for the Cowboys front office, with several key decisions to make regarding the roster and coaching...
