A collection of blog posts and articles from the Dallas Cowboys current season and previous years.
The 2021 NFL season has finally arrived, and the stage is set for a Cowboys Buccaneers showdown in Tampa Bay. It will be “America’s Team” versus Tom Brady and the defending World Champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers and fans around the world will be watching. On paper, based on their 2020 records, this is going to be a bit of a mismatch. Dallas finished the 2020 season with a 6-10 record…
The Dallas Cowboys tight end position has truly been one of the biggest weaknesses on the roster for the past few seasons. As much as loyal fans do not want to admit it, future Hall of Famer TE Jason Witten was a shell of his former self towards the end of his career. His presence on the team also hindered the development of the current crop of young tight ends,…
The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver trio of Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb, and Michael Gallup are widely considered to be among the best in the NFL. Before Dak Prescott‘s season came to an abrupt end in 2020, they were all well on pace to achieve their goal of each recording 1000 yards receiving for the season. With an extra game on the schedule in 2021, and hopefully a healthy Dak Prescott,…
The perception of the Dallas Cowboys Offensive Line as a dominant force has been more based on reputation and past performance than on reality in recent years. With prime Travis Frederick out of the mix since 2018, Tryon Smith struggling with back issues, and even Zack Martin missing time, it is no small wonder why the unit has not met expectations. This year, they have an opportunity to once again…
As the Dallas Cowboys play their final Pre-Season game vs the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, here are 5 players on the Bubble to watch who or might not make the final Cowboys 53 man roster. GREG ZUERLEIN There is no doubt in my mind that he is making the team. He has missed the entire training camp after coming off season ending back surgery but he has been ramping up…
Similar to last season, the 2021 Dallas Cowboys roster selection will be impacted by injuries, COVID-19 Protocals, and rule changes. There will be no limit on players placed on IR for a minimum of 3 weeks provided they are selected to initial 53 man roster. Additionally, the practice squad will once again consist of 16 players. This 53 man Dallas Cowboys roster projection is a prediction of what the roster…
There is one Dallas Cowboys running back who bears the majority of weight on his shoulders, and that is none other than Ezekiel Elliott. Ironically, Zeke will have to do that again in 2021 while weighing less than he has since his college days. Besides Zeke, who Stephen Jones once referred to as “the straw that stirs the drink”, the Cowboys have themselves a complementary back in place and a…
The question surrounding the Dallas Cowboys quarterback position has shifted from the health of Dak Prescott to, who will win the back up job? While one of those questions carries far more significance than the other, both may not fully be answered until the Dallas Cowboys open the 2021 season against the reigning Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Regarding the health of Dak Prescott, the concerns about his ankle…
The performance of the 2021 Dallas Cowboys defensive line is going to be the biggest factor in determining whether or not the defense will dramatically improve from 2020. The Cowboys struggled mightily last season in both generating pressure and stopping the run. While scheme, fit, and personnel were part of the problem, the inadequacies of the interior defensive line is what mostly contributed to the historically bad performance. The Cowboys…
Who would have thought even a few weeks ago, that concern over a Dak Prescott injury prior to the 2021 season would have absolutely nothing to do with his ankle? Unlikely as it may have seemed then, that is the case now and as the regular season quickly approaches, Cowboys fans are more than a little worried about the availability of their starting quarterback.
