Mick Shots: It’s not over until it’s really over (opens the original)
Read excerpt
FRISCO, Texas – OK, get it, 1-2 is 1-2, no two ways about it. Not a desirable record three games into a season. But come on, as some seem to be suggesting, this is no time to throw in the towel. No time to declare a season on life support. But there sure are those who love to be first to jump to conclusions, to give mathematical reasons why there is already no way the Cowboys can pull out of losing two of the first three games to recover in time to produce a winning season, a playoff season. So

RIO DE JANEIRO – No way, no way on this great green earth, even here way down south of the equator, can a team do so much right, yet do so much wrong. Dang, the Cowboys scored 31 points but lost the NFL Rio Game here on Sunday at Maracanã Stadium. No way the Cowboys finally got their running game going, scoring two touchdowns on the ground and rushing for a season-high 148 yards behind Javonte Williams' 98, and lost the game. No way Dak Prescott hooked up with CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens a co

FRISCO, Texas – OK, here we go again … but wait, this has nothing to do with Dak Prescott getting to the line of scrimmage and letting everyone know his snap count is about to begin. Oh no, this has to do with the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday evening heading off on their American Airlines charter flight to Rio de Janeiro, and that's Brazil, as in South America for those geographically challenged. Yep, an overnighter, 10 hours from takeoff to landing, plus a bus ride to the hotel, now on Rio time,

FRISCO, Texas – What a difference a week makes. Not great by any means, yet still good enough to beat down the Washington Commanders, 37-20. And not as thorough as the score might suggest, but a win nevertheless as the Cowboys evened their two-game record at 1-1 before a very appreciative AT&T house of 93,188 by the time Sunday evening rolled around. Now, 1-1 might not be ideal, but a win is a win, however achieved. And understand, going into the Monday night game between the Giants and Rams, th

Fortunately for the 2026 Dallas Cowboys, while the false start in Game 1 counts, they have 16 more redos to fix what ails them. Thus comes Game 2 of the 17-game season, 3:25 p.m. Sunday at AT&T Stadium against Washington, both teams knowing the dangers of starting off a season not only 0-2 but also 0-2 in the NFC East. And if the 0-1 Cowboys are going to do a one-eighty against the equally 0-1 Washingtons, then it's on you, Cowboys defense – the newfangled group along with the new defensive coor
