2026 NFL Week 2: Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Commanders

Welcome to Week 2 of the Dallas Cowboys season. For the first, and hopefully last, time the Cowboys are looking to bounce back from a loss. This past Sunday was a humbling experience for the Cowboys as they had an enormous amount of positivity heading into the season opener, but football is a meritocracy and […]

Cowboys vs. Commanders: Matchups to watch in Week 2

After last week’s embarrassing performance against the New York Giants, the Dallas Cowboys return home this week to take on another division foe, the Washington Commanders. Hopefully playing in front of their hometown crowd will light the fire inside everyone that look to be lacking last week, because they can’t afford to start 0-2, especially […]

The Parker Report: How the Cowboys defense fared in week 1

With NFL Week 1 in the books, lets take a look at how first-year defensive coordinator Christian Parker and his revamped defense looked against the Giants. Team stats allowed In their first week of action, the Cowboys defense gave up 394 total yards, 29 first downs, and allowed an 82% third down conversion rate (9/11). […]

Cowboys opponent: A look at the Commanders for Week 2

The Dallas Cowboys dropped their Week 1 game and are looking to bounce back. They don’t have to wait long for another NFC East opponent.

3 things we learned about the Cowboys in Week 1 loss

The Dallas Cowboys kicked off the season against the New York Giants, and it gave them a shot to get a big win in the NFC East. Many thought it would happen due to the Cowboys dominance against the Giants over the last decade, but things didn’t turn out that way. For the game, Dallas […]

Cowboys positional rankings reveal where accountability needs to start

For me it’s quite simple: Because the expectations for the offense and defense were quite high, and both units were outcoached and outplayed by the Giants, the accountability falls squarely on Brian Schottenheimer and Christian Parker. Alas, if only simple answers were the right answers – they almost never are. One of the team captains, […]

Cowboys defense is still the problem after loss to Giants

Football is back, and for Dallas Cowboys fans around the world, so is the disappointment that is often associated with this team. For the better part of 60 minutes, the Dallas Cowboys were taken to task by their division rival, the Giants. Both sides of the ball struggled, leading to a season-opening loss, but today […]

Cowboys news: Jerry Jones wants better communication on defense

The Dallas Cowboys spent the entire offseason saying Christian Parker would elevate communication on defense. That was his bread and butter. Jerry and Stephen Jones echoed that it was a leading reason they hired him. On Sunday night, the Cowboys owner was left disappointed by how bad it looked against the New York Giants. Dallas […]

Cowboys report card: Grading Week 1 vs. the Giants

The Dallas Cowboys’ chances of winning Sunday night against the Giants felt gone in a New York minute. Dallas’ opening drive ended with the offense looking out of rhythm, while the New York offense, led by Jaxson Dart, couldn’t be stopped. Jerry Jones and the front office invested a ton of resources into the defense […]

Brian Schottenheimer report card: Cowboys culture crashes in Week 1

After a disastrous 2025 season, the Dallas Cowboys hoped to rebound in the 2026 season bringing back the entire starting offense in 2026, and completely new look defense and coaching staff. Things could not have started out worse for the 2026 Cowboys, after dropping their week one game on the road in MetLife against the […]

Concern around Brandon Aubrey feels fair right now

Brandon Aubrey missed an extra point on Sunday night against the New York Giants. No harm, no foul. Extra points are missed all of the time in the NFL, right? We shouldn’t be freaking out over a single kick. This isn’t like early in Aubrey’s career where he was automatic and the out-of-nowhere miss was […]

Cowboys rookie report: Caleb Downs had one big moment in Giants loss

The Dallas Cowboys opened their season with a disappointing 28–20 loss to the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium. There were flashes from the rookie class, but also reminders of how much work remains. Caleb Downs produced the standout moment, while several other newcomers picked up their first meaningful NFL experience. Here is how each […]

2026 NFL Week 2 Power Rankings: Cowboys refuse to live up to expectations

Every team in the NFL has officially played a game. Half of the fanbases across the league are feeling like anything is possible where the other side, including us, is questioning football fandom at large. So goes the ride. Seasons are marathons and stumbling out of the gate is hardly proof that the whole journey […]

Cowboys at Giants: The good, the bad, and the ugly

Losing 28-20 to the New York Giants is not the way any of us expected the Dallas Cowboys to kick off the 2026 NFL season, and yet, that’s exactly what happened. The Giants came out and played with a purpose, completely dominating the game from start to finish. And the Cowboys, they looked unprepared and […]

Cowboys fans decide what the big problem was in Giants loss

That didn’t go well. The Dallas Cowboys thought they would start off their 2026 campaign with a win over the New York Giants, like usual. Turns out, this was not the same Giants football club they were used to. The Giants wore the Cowboys out with a strong running game and Jaxson Dart’s accurate passing. […]

Cowboys outcoached, outplayed at Giants to start 0-1 in division

The 2026 Dallas Cowboys began their season with a loss that made things feel like 2025 all over again, for an abundance of reasons, and really not many of them good. The last loss of last season was at MetLife Stadium to the New York Giants, and now this new season began with a season-opening […]

Cowboys Week 1 fallout: 6 possessions and a funeral

What a bunch of horse manure. Sorry for such a vivid description, but organic soil fertilizer is the only way to accurately capture the aroma of the broken spirit of this Cowboys fan. After months of begrudgingly building up excitement for this Dallas Cowboys football team, this is our reward. Maybe a little of that’s […]

Cowboys add another running back to the active roster

The Dallas Cowboys are continuing to add to the running back position. Before Malik Davis went down with season-ending hip surgery in practice last week, the team had already added Emari Demercado via waiver claims after training camp. Then, after Davis was placed on injured reserve, they signed Israel Abanikanda from the practice squad to […]

Cowboys injury news: Malik Hooker, DeMarvion Overshown updates

The Dallas Cowboys lost on Sunday night against the New York Giants, and unfortunately the ramifications of it are still being felt. Malik Hooker and DeMarvion Overshown both left the game as a result of different injuries, and on Monday head coach Brian Schottenheimer provided some clarity around them. According to Schotty, Malik Hooker is […]

Tyler Guyton a bright spot in Cowboys’ demoralizing loss

The Dallas Cowboys’ 2026 regular season got off to an abysmal start on Sunday night. As they do nearly every year, Dallas came into the season with high hopes. After the disaster that was last season, offseason upgrades had the Cowboys believing they could be a serious contender. Unfortunately for Dallas, it was hard to […]

CeeDee Lamb passed Dez Bryant in Cowboys franchise history

CeeDee Lamb has a new spot in Dallas Cowboys franchise history. Lamb began the season needing 44 receiving yards to surpass his predecessor in Club 88 for fifth in franchise history from a receiving yards standpoint. He has now done it. And he barely did so, at least in the season opener. Lamb finished the […]

5 key plays that spelled disaster for the Cowboys vs. Giants

After all the hype and build-up of what was a terrific, drama-free offseason for the Dallas Cowboys, the team came out flat against the New York Giants. The offense sleepwalked through much of the game, looking like a shell of the potent offense we saw last year. Dallas’ receivers weren’t productive for much of the […]

Javonte Williams really hurt the Cowboys on this play

It appeared that the Dallas Cowboys were about to be down by seven points. As Javonte Williams was walking into the endzone after catching a pass from Dak Prescott, this was the collective thought. Unfortunately, that thought was replaced by one of “what are you doing!?” as Williams was getting called for taunting in the […]
