Since 2016, the Dallas Cowboys have had one of the best rushing attacks in the NFL. Drafting running back Ezekiel Elliott and pairing him with an already strong offensive line set them up for years to be one of the most dominant offenses in the NFL. He was set to be the feature back in Dallas for a long time, …
The Dallas Cowboys weren’t involved in any trade activity ahead of the recent deadline, at least none that came to fruition. While they were smack in the middle of trade rumors, no new face joined the roster before the window shut. As it turns out, however, the Cowboys came close to acquiring Houston Texans receiver Brandin Cooks, who appeared to …
With Sunday’s escapades concluding with a possible playoff spot for the Dallas Cowboys, it’s time for the players to put the best of their best on display and come without the mistakes. Mistakes have been high with every side of the ball, both defensively and offensively. Where it came unlikely would be with Dallas’ star player Ezekiel Elliot and his …
When people refer to a Super Bowl “window” in football, it’s defined as a short period of time (a few years) where the roster and staff look capable of bringing home the Lombardi. Many argue that the Cowboys’ window closed last season, after failing to win it all while QB Dak Prescott was on an affordable rookie contract. Having a …
The Dallas Cowboys are what some might call a “top-heavy team.” They have plenty of star power on a roster that is headlined by Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott, Amari Cooper, and Demarcus Lawrence. But, the players who will determine the success of this team are not the stars. It’s the players that are rarely talked about that could make or …
No NFL roster is without a few question marks, especially in June. Today, the Dallas Cowboys look like contenders on paper. The team has some extreme strengths, such as interior DL, and offensive weaponry. There are also some unsure or unproven units, like offensive line and secondary respectively. Again, every NFL team has some shaky areas in the pre-training camp. …
During the 2016 season when both Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliot were in their first year, the Cowboys smartly trusted their rookie running back more than their rookie quarterback. Elliot was able to run the ball for 5.07 yards per carry and be the main guy in this offense. Flash forward to 2019 and everyone is ready to tell you …
Running Back Tony Pollard and Tight End Blake Jarwin share quite a few similarities. Both are backups to more experienced, trusted players. Both are more explosive versions of the veterans they back up. Both players play positions where they can actually share the field with the starter, so coaches are not faced with absolute one or the other choices as …
Ezekiel Elliott is still holding out. We are less than two weeks away from Cowboys vs. Giants and Zeke is still in Mexico . . . or maybe a local Whataburger. With all the Marshall Faulk drama, it would not surprise me if Elliott missed at least a couple of games. So maybe it is time to take a closer …
Kickoff to the 2019 NFL regular season is closing in fast, and Ezekiel Elliott is still a non-participant, mired in a contract dispute. With each day that passes, the possibility of the Cowboys taking the field for meaningful football games without their bell-cow runner grows closer to becoming a reality. Ezekiel Elliott is a complete running back of the highest …
