The Dallas Cowboys will play the Washington Redskins at noon on Sunday in the final home game of the season. With the playoffs out of reach, Dallas will be looking to pass Washington in the division race, so you could call this a battle for last place in the NFC East. Redskins coach Mike Shanahan [...]
Cowboys Head Coach Jason Garrett Has Almost Earned Respect and a Permanent Job

If you have read any of my posts here on The Cowboys Central, you will know I have been the biggest anti-Jason Garrett writer in the nation. I loathed the Dallas Cowboys interim head coach when he was only the offensive coordinator for the first half of this season under Wade Phillips. His play calling [...]

For those of you that tune into Back Sports Page Texas on Thursday evenings and have heard me talk with host Jay Maguire about the Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback situation, I’m curious to know what you think. Since we’re just making this a free-for-all, I guess I should share this with those who haven’t listened. With [...]
Cowboys Come Up Just Short Against Eagles, 30-27

The Philadelphia Eagles came to Dallas looking to take a half game lead over the Giants in the NFC East and they did just that. The Dallas Cowboys put forth an inspiring effort, but came up just short of upsetting their visiting division rivals. I can’t say very much negatively about the Cowboys’ performance, but [...]

Dallas Cowboys running back Marion Barber missed Sunday’s win over the Indianapolis Colts with a strained calf muscle. To replace him in the Cowboys’ two-running back rotation, Tashard Choice was promoted from third to second on the team depth chart.

What’s this? The Cowboys’ porous pass defense picks off the NFL’s best quarterback four times and returns two of them for scores? Yes, indeed. The Cowboys rode into Lucas Oil Stadium and took down the mighty Colts in an old fashioned overtime shootout. Dallas running back Tashard Choice ran for 100 yards and a touchdown [...]

Since Peyton Manning became the Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback in 1998, he has beaten Dallas twice in his three meetings with the Cowboys. On Sunday, the Boys hit the road to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis to try and even the record against Manning. Since the Colts are currently riding a 2-game losing streak, some might [...]

Dallas Cowboys running back Tashard Choice apparently tuned in for the Texans-Titans game on Sunday. Since the Boys played on Thanksgiving, all the players were off on Sunday and watched other NFL action. Like Choice, those who watched the Houston-Tennessee game saw Texans receiver Andre Johnson stick Titans cornerback Cortland Finnegan with two haymakers and [...]

Dallas running back Marion Barber strained his left calf during the Cowboys’ 30-27 loss to the Saints on Thanksgiving.

The Cowboys have a few extra days to prepare for the Colts next Sunday after playing [...]
Cowboys Fall Just Short Against Saints on Thanksgiving 30-27

Many positives can be taken from the Cowboys’ 30-27 loss to the Saints on Thanksgiving. After giving up 17 unanswered points to New Orleans early, Dallas rallied to take a 27-23 lead. That’s something we haven’t seen from the Cowboys much this year, at least not under Wade Phillips. However, the team seems to have [...]
