I have told this story a million times but it bears repeating. It was my first year on the Cowboys beat and Dave Campo’s final one. It had been a long year but they were ending strong. They looked to have a QB in Chad Hutchinson and were beating San Francisco at Texas Stadium. They collapsed down the...

By Mike Carley Cowboys haters will always find something wrong with Romo.  The job of any defensive coordinator/head coach is to create a terrifying defense. Hats off to Philips for doing that. He forgot that your defense is supposed to terrify the other team, not your own fans.

By Daniel Nations When Terrell Owens left Dallas, he took more than just his baggage.  He took the Super Bowl expectations that surrounded the Cowboys for the past few years.   Is the knock on Roy Williams fair? The truth: Roy Williams doesn't need to make up for T.O.'s production.  

By VSN Writers 2008 Summary The Dallas Cowboys were penciled in by many experts as the Super Bowl Champions before the season even began. With a disappointing loss to the Giants, coming off of the 13-3 regular season, the Cowboys figured to be just as dangerous in 2008.

Buehler (pronounced BEE-ler) can boom kickoffs into the end zone with good hang time on a regular basis. That's the primary reason the Cowboys' drafted him. His athleticism is a nice bonus. Buehler put on a show at the combine, running a 4.62 40 and putting up 25 bench-press reps. Those numbers a...

By Romo to Oh Crap Then you add in two seasons ago, when after a bye week, Romo could not manage to lead his team to victory over the highly underrated Super Bowl Champion New York Giants. It's not true! He's at least made it to the Super Bowl! He's won nine playoff games! That's more than Tony Romo!"

By Adrian Gonzales I have heard Owens get a lot of trash talk lately after this release which really makes me wonder... How can a very productive player (the best WR Dallas has had since Michael Irvin) be a distraction to an entire team that doesn't play with heart? If a team doesn't play to win shouldn't it be the en...

TAMPA, Fla. — No franchise in the NFL had a bigger show of force at the Super Bowl on Thursday than your — yes, your — Dallas Cowboys. Not even the Cardinals or the Steelers. How big a Cowboys fan is Staubach? Well, his reaction to the Cowboys’ regular-season finale in Philadelphia in December:

It will air as a 30-second Samsung/NFL commercial during Sunday’s NBC Super Bowl pregame show. When young Reginald was 12, the ’77 Cowboys won Super Bowl XII. Then, how can he stand today’s self-imploding Cowboys? So, I look at the Cowboys as a work in progress from top to bottom."

RANDY GALLOWAY A question here Wednesday for Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten: Can 2009 be any different with the softy, Wade Phillips, as head coach, and Owens as the off-season reality TV show poster child? Can the Cowboys’ locker room provide enough of those players?

By robert allred In San Francisco, he called his quarterback gay. Cancer. In Philadelphia, he questioned his quarterback's toughness and heart. Cancer. In Dallas, he shed tears in defense of his quarterback. Cancer? I am sorry, but I am just not seeing a trend here.

By Brandon Worley The New Stadium. Jerry World. Insert-highest-bidder-here-Stadium. The Dallas Cowboys said goodbye to Texas Stadium in forgettable fashion in 2008 with an absolute clunker against the Baltimore Ravens.

By Craig Garrison Sr Easy. Money. They know the Cowboys are media darlings so they do as much as possible to add to the hype. But I have so much company in that hate that I have given up trying to be fair about it. As a Redskins' fan it's in my blood to hate the Cowboys, but what's everybody else's excuse?

By Rafael Vela When the Redskins tried running laterally, the inside backers attacked the line, standing up the Washington fullbacks and tight ends;  they established the point of attack at the line of scrimmage or in Washington's backfield.  Davis was then able to zoom in and clean up.

By Max Tcheyan For instance, I didn’t talk to Troy Aikman. Troy Aikman wouldn’t talk to me for this book. And the instant reaction is, “How can you write a book on the Dallas Cowboys without talking to Aikman?” MT: You mentioned Jimmy Johnson, and a large part of the book is devoted to exploring the relations...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) Leonard Davis was slow to pull on a run block, whiffed on another run block that killed a third and two play, and had one bad protection. He did manage a couple of good run blocks. Marc Colombo was actually pretty clean compared to the rest of the line. He was slow to get out on a pull and had one bad pa...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) NT - Jay Ratliff is still pretty active but he isn't making as many plays as he was earlier in the season. Rat was having some problems holding the point of attack in the running game but part of it was the scheme where the one-gap 3-4 defense asks him to slant to a gap in one direction. There were pl...

By joshua penny Despite your preferences, despite your chants of "Dallas sucks" or "America's team," there is a genuinely rudimentary problem with the way the Dallas Cowboys are playing the sport right now.  A lot has already been said about the talent on the team and how, as a unit, not too many teams co...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) CB - Adam Jones, in my opinion, is becoming our most effective cornerback. He's not scared to press-up on a receiver and seems to get his hands on more passes than other members of the Cowboys secondary. On the positive side, he was very tight in coverage on three occasions, had a pass breakup,...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) QB - Tony Romo is still performing at a high level. When it comes to wins and losses, he's still getting the job done. But I don't think he's been as sharp over the last few weeks as he's been in the past. For example, on the first drive after the Greg Ellis INT, he had an opportunity to hit Martellus B...

By Matt Loede 2. Dallas (1) - A home loss to the Redskins has people wondering if the Cowboys are a team that can’t get up for games week in and week out. The team totally got away from running the football, and on defense couldn’t stop Clinton Portis and an improving Jason Campbell. The Bengals are up next, and...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) The book has so many stories and revelations that I can't even begin to run through them all in this review.

By ChrisPokorny It was not a very fun opener to watch, but there's no way I'm going to get discouraged heading into this Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) I’ve watched the film on the Dallas Cowboys game with the Minnesota Vikings and have compiled my film review – The Bubble Watch edition.

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) S – Roy Williams didn’t make a whole lot of plays in the game and was part of the bad tacking that plagued the Cowboys. Ken Hamlin also was not immune to a missed tackle but he ended with a fair amount of tackles in the game. Pat Watkins, for the second week in a row, had an INT nullified by a Cowboys pe...

By David Trollope It was only a preseason game, but the Cowboys came out on the losing end 31-17. It was good to finally see a Cowboys football game. Here are my thoughts on the game. The offensive stars did a great job. Romo, Witten, Barber, and Crayton showed how good his hands are.

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) Junior Siavii – Looks the part but so far just hasn’t showed me enough play-making ability to keep him as a third NT. He needs to really produce in the preseason to make the roster, more than he showed in the two weeks of training camp. DE OLB ILB CB

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) QB Tony Romo – Franchise. RB Marion Barber – Ask LB Tyson Smith if MB3 is ready for action. WR T.O. – Uncoverable in camp. Todd Lowber – Hey, he has a Super Bowl ring, he should just be happy with that. OL FB TE Jason Witten – Romo to Witten over the middle is cash money. Candy from a baby.

By Brandon 11. Dallas Cowboys -- DE Justin Tuck, Notre Dame Even with Ware off the re-draft board, we know Parcells still would have gone with a defensive pick. Tuck would play defensive end in the Cowboys' 3-4 scheme and rush the passer as a defensive tackle on passing downs.

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) The surprise of the game for me on film was Stephen Bowen. He was in the game a lot more than usual and he made some plays. In the first series of the game he rushed the QB from a standing position as the Cowboys were playing games at the line and got to Grossman to force an incomplete pass. In a series l...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) QB – Let me preface this with a note about Tony Romo. He’s been phenomenal and I’m thrilled at the prospect of him being our QB for years to come. Jerry can’t sign him soon enough. So I’m a fan, a huge fan of Romo. But here’s a news flash for members of the Cult of Romo, he does make mistakes. I know; that i...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) Thursday night’s game will come against those barbarians from the North, The Minnesota Vikings. I always liked the Vikings as a kid, not the team, but the historical Vikings.

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) The run defense was bad, especially on one side of the line. The corners also struggled, and overall the Cowboys couldn't create sustained pressure and only had one sack. It did appear that the Cowboys weren't quite as blitz-happy as they were last week and stayed in base formation a lot, for...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) TM: The offense was very good last year – the best statistically since the Cowboys’ Super Bowl teams – and made a major upgrade at right guard by signing Bigg Davis. The defense was pretty good until the bottom fell out in December, and Wade Phillips was hired to fix it. Sure looks good so far. The...
