Dallas Cowboys’ Maxx Crosby Pursuit Takes Fresh Turn 10 Days Before Deadline

With the NFL trade deadline looming on Nov. 10, Maxx Crosby remains committed to the Las Vegas Raiders, despite early 2026 trade buzz linking him to Dallas. Reports say Raiders GM John Spytek expects calls, keeping a blockbuster move possible, while Crosby’s three‑year, $106.5 million extension runs through 2029. The Cowboys, who pursued Crosby since March and recently acquired edge rusher Rashan Gary, have only 10 sacks in seven games (27th in the league). As both teams sit 3‑4, Dallas will host the Cardinals Sunday and face the Colts on Nov. 8—the final chance to reshuffle the pass rush before the deadline.

Viral Cowboys Fan Who Trolled Eagles Crowd With Don Julio Bottle Named ‘Fan of the Year’

During the Cowboys' 38–21 win over the Eagles, a fan in a No. 88 jersey went viral after drinking straight from a Don Julio bottle behind CeeDee Lamb’s touchdown celebration. The photo and a follow‑up video of the fan dancing and taunting Eagles supporters spread rapidly on social media, earning him the tongue‑in‑cheek title “Fan of the Year.” Lamb finished with five catches, 74 yards and two scores, keeping Dallas on pace for a top‑three receiving ranking. The incident dominated post‑game chatter ahead of Dallas’ Week 8 showdown with the Cardinals.

Bills Linked to Budda Baker Trade Amid Defensive Concerns

The Buffalo Bills are being linked to a trade for Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker as the NFL deadline nears on Nov. 10. The 30‑year‑old, eight‑time Pro Bowler has posted a career‑best 3.5 sacks, 44 tackles, four pass defenses and an interception in seven games this season, and is under contract through 2027 after a three‑year, $54 million extension. Acquiring Baker would give Buffalo a versatile secondary veteran to address its defensive woes, but the deal could require hefty draft capital and salary‑cap space. Neither team has confirmed talks, leaving the move speculative but intriguing for a Bills team eyeing the playoffs.

3 things Cowboys HC Brian Schottenheimer can carry into week 8

Brian Schottenheimer can lean on three positives as the Cowboys head into Week 8 against Arizona. First, Dallas finally embraced a creative ground attack in a 38‑21 win over the Eagles, using pin pulls, traps and misdirection—a formula that could exploit the Cardinals’ middling rush defense (6th in EPA/play, 20th in success). Second, the offense showed newfound down‑field aggression, generating big passing plays against a secondary that ranks near the bottom in drop‑back EPA and success. Third, tight end Brevyn Spann‑Ford’s expanded role after his contract extension adds blocking strength and versatile looks in 11‑ and 12‑personnel, opening up both run and pass options.

Cardinals Get Major Jeremiyah Love News Ahead of Cowboys Clash

Arizona Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love is cleared to play in Week 8 against the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium.

Love has 245 rushing yards and one touchdown on 67 carries (3.7 yards/carry) this season, and the Cowboys currently allow the league’s fewest rushing yards (145.7 per game), offering a prime opportunity for a breakout performance. Bam Knight filled in during Love’s absence.
