In late 2019, NFL Network analysts Bucky Brooks and Daniel Jeremiah drafted a ‘checklist’ of sorts, outlining the components they deem necessary for a true championship-contending NFL roster. Brooks and Jeremiah’s criteria lined up pretty nicely with the teams who were actually still in the thick of things in January. The necessary components in the eyes of Brooks and Jeremiah …
On Tuesday, newly hired Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy brought aboard respected defensive mind Mike Nolan as defensive coordinator. Nolan worked most recently as a linebackers coach for the New Orleans Saints, but has 21 years of NFL experience as a defensive coordinator or head coach. Having yet another seasoned football mind and former NFL head coach on board …
If you polled a group of Dallas Cowboys faithful about the team’s biggest needs in the upcoming draft, it’s a safe bet that defensive tackle and safety would shake out near the top of the list. Most fans probably also realize that the cornerback room (with the decision to extend Byron Jones still very much in question) only returns two …
It’s early, but through two contests, the Dallas Cowboys defense is performing nothing like the unit many had pegged to be a top 5 group this season. They haven’t been poor by any stretch, and the very important, bottom-line number of 14 PPG allowed is strong. What’s troubling however is the fact that the defense has relinquished 264 passing yards …
This preseason we’ve been able to watch many players make plays and prove why they deserve a spot on the final roster. However, only 53 players are allowed to have a star on their helmet after August 31st when all cuts are due. We’ll be going through the 90 man roster, while only highlighting the potential 53 men that will …
The NFL is a passing league. Perhaps the easiest way to confirm this rather bland statement is to follow the money. The top 11 highest-paid players are all quarterbacks . . . and the 12th? Pass rusher Khalil Mack. The highest-paid running back, Todd Gurley, earns almost $6 million less than the highest-paid receiver, Michael Thomas. Further evidence? Our Cowboys …
The Cowboys training camp inches closer day by day, and there are lots of position battles going into the 2019 campaign. The amount of young talent on this team makes for fierce competition on both sides of the ball. The new players that arrived via the draft and free agency will be making noise to get on the field. However, …
Over the past couple of seasons, the Cowboys defense has had an entertaining swag that all began with Demarcus Lawrence giving the defensive line the name “The Hot Boys”. On top of receiving a fitting name, this team has also added talent to their starting lineup along with their depth players. Their defense staff also received a boost last year …
Breath, Cowboys Nation, because there are 3 words that sum up this whole negotiating process. It’s. About. Time. DeMarcus “Tank” Lawrence finalized a deal with the Dallas Cowboys on Friday worth $105 million with $65 million. This offseason has been a roller coaster for fans, from being frustrated with the first round of free agency, to being confident and jubilant …
Sean Lee is coming back to play in 2019. The veteran linebacker came to an agreement to restructure his contract with the Dallas Cowboys to save money on the salary cap as well as to bring the longtime Cowboy back for this upcoming season. He is scheduled to make $3.5 million in base salary for the season, but with incentives …
