Dallas Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys

Up next for Dallas is a Monday Night Football game against the Arizona Cardinals. They will go on their bye immediately after, but when they return they will be playing on Monday night once more. That second game will be a road contest against the Las Vegas Raiders and will actually mark the first-ever regular season trip for the Cowboys to Sin City.

Bridges, a seventh round pick in April of the Los Angles Chargers, actually made his debut in the Week 3 loss at Chicago, finishing with four tackles in 20 defensive snaps (33.9%) and 10 more (43.5%) on special teams. In last week's win over Washington, he also had four solo tackles in 53 defensive snaps (79.1%). On Sunday, he saw 48 snaps on defense (76.2%) and once again had four solo tackles. He also added two passes defended.

The defense chose to not show up once more, and this time the offense couldn't save them. It was a failure on just about every level and resulted in a score that made the Denver Broncos feel quite proud of themselves. You are well aware that the Cowboys are one of the worst defenses in NFL history to date, but those types of statements sound like exaggeration and hyperbole. Thanks to the offerings of Stathead and Pro Football Reference we can prove these unfortunately-not-outlandish claims.

Patrick Surtain is expected to miss time with a pectoral injury sustained in the second quarter Sunday, veteran insider Jordan Schultz reports. A four- to six-week timetable is being floated here, via Schultz, though the reigning Defensive Player of the Year is ticketed for a second opinion. Either way, it appears the Broncos' defense will be dealt a significant blow.

Trevon Diggs, who missed last week with a concussion, was added to the injured reserve on Saturday. Donovan Wilson was ruled out earlier in the week, creating another vacancy alongside Malik Hooker, who has been on the injured reserve for several weeks now. Hooker's replacement, Juanyeh Thomas, is also inactive for the second week in a row with a migraine, leaving the back end of the secondary very depleted.

Not long ago, the Cowboys boasted one of the most successful defensive backfields in the NFL. The group of Trevon Diggs, DaRon Bland, Jourdan Lewis, Malik Hooker, and Donovan Wilson provided balance, leadership, and big-play potential at every level of the secondary. Diggs emerged as one of the league's premier ballhawks, combining elite instincts with game-breaking speed. Bland followed up with historic production of his own, setting interception records and proving he could line up anywhere.

Earlier this week the Cowboys were connected to both Maxx Crosby ( by Trey Wingo) and Trey Hendrickson ( by ESPN) as far as trade rumors are concerned. Both of those players are in fact pass rushers so this latest report runs a little bit counter to that idea. The jokes write themselves as far as the idea of Dallas pursuing pass rushers what with how they traded away Micah Parsons a week before the season began.

Offensive guard Tyler Booker made his return to the starting lineup on Sunday a successful one in a game that was very successful for most of the 2025 rookies. Booker played on all 67 offensive snaps for Dallas. He also had eight more on special teams. More importantly, he looked fully recovered from the high ankle sprains that sidelined him for three games.

The legalization of sports betting in Texas is reshaping the dynamics of Dallas Cowboys fandom. Fans are finding new ways to engage with games, enhancing their overall experience. As this trend evolves, it presents both opportunities and challenges for supporters. Sports betting has seen a surge in popularity across Texas, particularly among Dallas Cowboys fans. Known for their fervent support and unwavering loyalty, these fans are now embracing a new dimension of game-day excitement.

The Dallas Cowboys' defense under coordinator Matt Eberflus has been one of the NFL's biggest disappointments. Once expected to be a disciplined, gap-sound, and opportunistic unit, the group has instead collapsed, ranking near the bottom in sacks, run defense, and third-down stops. To change that trajectory, imagine this blockbuster trade proposal: The Cowboys send right tackle Terence Steele, center Brock Hoffman, and the Green Bay Packers' 2026 first-round pick (acquired in the Micah Parsons trade) to the Tennessee Titans.
