Rate Opinion: FISH on FOOTBALL The Cowboys' Magic Moment: The Joy Of Six

Original at Blogging The Boys external link    Tue, Oct 13

Rate Opinion: Coach Wade's Cowboys play same mediocre tune

Original at Star-Telegram.com external link    Mon, Oct 5

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...

Rate Opinion: Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo Needs to Step Up In Week Four!

Original at Bleacher Report external link    Fri, Oct 2

By Janet Kessler Week 3 flat again: Last week the passing game was very conservative like Romo was on a short dog leash.  And rightfully offensive coordinator Jason Garrett should have had Romo on one. Read more Dallas Cowboys news on BleacherReport.com

Rate Opinion: Dallas Cowboys' Defense, Not Tony Romo, Should Worry Fans

Original at Bleacher Report external link    Mon, Sep 28

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.

Rate Opinion: Pro Football Weekly Shows Why Cowboys Will Take NFL By Surprise

Original at Bleacher Report external link    Sun, Aug 2

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.

Rate Opinion: Cowboys Stadium: Pricing Average Fans Out of the Game

Original at Bleacher Report external link    Sun, Jun 7

By Jason Turner I've gone to numerous Cowboys' games over the last three years. Single game tickets in the lower bowl ranged between $100 and $400 per seat on the secondary market depending on location. Those same seats are listed for $275 to $4,000 each in the new stadium.

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...

Rate Opinion: Tony Romo Vs. Donovan McNabb: Who's Really The Bigger Choke Artist?

Original at Bleacher Report external link    Sun, Mar 8

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!"

Rate Opinion: Roger Staubach and Tony Dorsett offer their views on the state of the Dallas Cowboys

Original at Star-Telegram.com external link    Thu, Jan 29

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?

You can see how the climate can change pretty quickly," head coach Wade Phillips said of his 8-4 team, which would pull into a tie for the top wild-card spot if Tampa Bay (8-3) loses Sunday.

Rate Opinion: Dallas Cowboys: Sick and Tired of Hearing It!

Original at Bleacher Report external link    Tue, Nov 25

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 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,...

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...
