Anyone following the NFL for a long time knows you don’t have to be a sweet little choir boy with perfect manners to be successful in the NFL. But one thing is required: YOU CANNOT BE …
Here’s where some patience is warranted around here: 22 year old rookies who haven’t even played a regular season game yet deserve some patience. Some developmental players who may take more than a year to be …
I spent a little time watching the game thread last night for the Seattle ps game. I was amazed at how much stock some our fans put into these games and what it may mean about …
Although I disagree, I understand why many Cowboys fans want to see starters play at least a qtr during the pre-season. Some teams do it. However, more and more teams’ coaches like Mike McCarthy choose not …
It was a pre-season game last night, so some of the fan reactions were overblown of course. But one reaction that may be on target is wondering if our backup OL are really capable backups. Maybe, …
History often repeats itself…. Jerry Jones has said repeatedly that he’s not giving in to Zack Martin’s holdout. He even said last week that he “needs extra cash to pay Micah Parsons” and has taken a …
I’ve always found it interesting that neither college nor high school football requires pre-season games to prepare for their regular season start. In fact, on college and HS campuses right now all across our country, teams …
There is a fundamental misunderstanding of NFL player contracts. Too many of us fans believe if a player signs a 4 year contract, both the owner and player are locked in together. That is simply not …

Entering 2023, there are several veteran players who need to step up their performance this summer or face the prospect of being cut. In my book these are the veterans squarely on the cut bubble: Kelvin …
Norm Hitzges, a Texas radio hall of famer and legend who covered the Cowboys and other Dallas area sports for 48 years has officially retired. Today was his last day in full time broadcasting. Norm was …
Going into the 2022 season, Cowboys fans were hopeful we could do four things we had not done since the 93-95 seasons- Make the playoffs in back to back seasons for the first time since 06-07. …
I’m sure 99.9% of the Cowboys fans here on the Zone want to win a championship badly. We all have a hunger to see another Lombardi join the storied collection of the 5 others. There are …
The Cowboys have a very nice problem on the horizon. Because of some good and perhaps even lucky drafting the last few years, there are several key players with rookie deals ending who will soon be …
