*It is Day 77 of our 100-day countdown to kickoff. We are looking back at the 100 most iconic games in Dallas Cowboys history. The countdown will leads us right up to the opening game of 2026. Our look back doesn’t depend on just one criteria for our rankings. We take into consideration things like how big the game was for the organization, how memorable the game was, games that had unusual events take place, games that are a part of NFL lore, Cowboys firsts, and games where the Cowboys just plain dominated. Variety is the spice of life and...

For an undrafted player, Brevyn Spann-Ford has relatively high expectations for just his third season. After pushing his way into a timeshare with Luke Schoonmaker last year, Spann-Ford enters Dallas’ camp as the fan favorite for the primary backup job in 2026.

With prototypical size but only average athleticism and poor technique coming out of Minnesota, Spann-Ford went undrafted in 2024. He signed on with the Cowboys, who had a fairly locked-in top two of Jake Ferguson and Schoonmaker but an open situation for TE3. With Lunda Wells coaching him...

In a flash, July is about to arrive, which means we are getting really close to the Dallas Cowboys roster cuts that are set to take place after the summer windup to the regular season in September.

There is so much anticipation for this season, largely because of the additions we’ve seen over this past offseason in free agency and in the draft; in the secondary, in particular, there has been a huge overhaul after a poor 2025 performance.

We saw a lot of guys step up into roles in the secondary due to injuries and, again, just outright poor...

When you have been in the desert as long as we have, a lot of things look like water. It has now been over 30 years since we as Dallas Cowboys fans last quenched our thirst with the team winning the Super Bowl. Who would have thought being parched for this long was even possible?

I am not speaking for anyone other than myself, but I imagine that at some point in time you have felt like cosmic stars were aligning and that surely it all meant the Cowboys were finally going to do it, only for them to not...

On June 13th, the New York Knicks sent shockwaves through the sports universe after winning their first NBA Championship after a 53-year drought. It was arguably the sports moment of the year, and it was immediately followed by the Carolina Hurricanes winning their first Stanley Cup in 20 years.

All this championship streak-snapping, especially in the case of the Knicks, has put an even bigger spotlight on the Dallas Cowboys’ Super Bowl drought; in case you’ve missed it, the count is now up to 30 years.

Is it the longest championship drought in sports? No, and it isn’t even close...

Just a little over a month stands between the Dallas Cowboys and the start of 2026 training camp. Dallas officially reports to Oxnard on July 28th, with the first training camp practice taking place on the 29th.

The Cowboys’ roster looks significantly different from what it did at this time last year, particularly on the defensive side of the ball. With that thought in mind, today we continue our series ranking the top 10 players on the Cowboys roster for the 2026 season.

The Dallas Cowboys are hoping for bigger things this upcoming season, but what if they magically came up with an unexpected breakout player to pull it off? The team is banking on a revamped coaching staff, headlined by new defensive coordinator Christian Parker, to help them make the leap into true contention. But schematic upgrades only go so far. They need some of their young cast members to take a massive step forward, but who will those players be? A more interesting question is, which player would provide the greatest overall benefit to the team if they earned their first-ever...

Should Dak Prescott get a contract extension after the 2026 season? – Mark Heaney, Inside the Star

Does it make “cents” for the Cowboys to pay Prescott some fresh cash?

It was not even two years ago that the Cowboys franchise quarterback and NFL All-Pro, Dak Prescott, signed a massive four-year, $240M contract extension. However, we may be just one season away from the team negotiating another long-term deal with Prescott. At first glance, that sounds ridiculous; how are we already talking about another Prescott contract when the ink on the last one still feels fresh? For the...

The 2023 season wasn’t long ago, but it sure feels like it for Cowboys CB DaRon Bland. Two injury-plagued seasons have dulled the luster of his record-setting breakout year. As Dallas tries to get back to fielding a competitive defense, Bland returning to his former self would be an enormous help.

Bland’s rookie season began at the bottom of the depth chart, but injuries pulled him into duty quickly. When Jourdan Lewis went to IR in October, Bland became the new starting nickel. Even before the breakout, he established...

At first glance, that sounds ridiculous; how are we already talking about another Prescott contract when the ink on the last one still feels fresh? For the Dallas fans who aren’t the biggest fans of the longtime QB, the last contract is probably still a sore spot.

Unfortunately for those fans, that is the reality of having a franchise...
