The winner of Madden 24 is all too obvious: Josh Allen.The loser is a fellow NFL quarterback who body-slammed by the Madden 24 trailer: Kirk Cousins.Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins could hardly be considered the villain of the NFL.So why did Madden 24 have to do him so dirty?The trailer for Madden 24 came out on Wednesday afternoon, and it showed some of the league's most beloved players in their natural element.

The NFL Honors were ultimately a great night for the Dallas Cowboys.Dak Prescott capped the event by winning Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year, and former Cowboys greats DeMarcus Ware and Chuck Howley were announced as members of the P ro Football Hall of Fame class of 2023.It didn't start off on a high note, however.

Dallas Cowboys defensive star Micah Parsons took an unintentional shot at quarterback Dak Prescott by pointing out the obvious.Micah Parsons really went there.Bills general manager Brandon Beane discussed why the Bengals roster building has fared better than Buffalo's.In doing so, he stated that the Bills hadn't tanked for the likes of Ja'Marr Chase.

When the Associated Press changed its format to allow NFL MVP voters to make their top five selections -- instead of picking a single player -- it was an overdue and welcome change.But I want more.A top five is fun, but you know what's better?A top 10.

There are a handful of Cowboys players in line for contract extensions, including quarterback Dak Prescott, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, and running back Tony Pollard, and team owner Jerry Jones said on Monday that there isn't a specific order for getting those deals done.The presumed size of a new pact for Prescott might lead some to believe that getting his extension finished is a prerequisite for getting the rest of their ducks in a row.

Can you remember a better day in free agency than what the Dallas Cowboys executed on Tuesday?Re-signing Donovan Wilson would've satiated most fans' appetites, but the fact they pulled off Leighton Vander Esch, and traded for Stephon Gilmore?You couldn't script it better than that if you tried.In terms of Wilson and Vander Esch, word out of Dallas suggested the team would struggle to retain both players.

The Dallas Cowboys played one of their best games of the season in the Wild Card round and got rewarded with their first road playoff win since 1992.It was almost 30 years to the date - Jan. 17, 1993 - the last time the Cowboys won a road playoff game.That victory came at Candlestick Park when Dallas defeated the 49ers.

Another 49ers-Cowboys playoff matchup is all set for those storied franchises, with each desperately seeking its first Super Bowl championship since their 1990s battles.The No. 2-seed 49ers (14-4) will host Sunday's divisional-round game at 3:30 p.m.The No. 5 Cowboys (13-5) advanced with Monday night's 31-14, wild-card win over seven-time champion Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who were the No. 4 seed but also 2 -point underdogs.

Micah Parsons isn't going to become a full-time defensive end this season.The Cowboys edge rusher said last month he had gained weight this offseason in anticipation of playing more defensive end in 2023.Some translated that to mean a full-time move to defensive end, but Parsons' versatility is what makes him special.

Pass rushers are often judged on their total number of sacks in a season, but the reality is that even the best pass rushers in the league record a sack on less than 5 percent of their snaps.More than 95 percent of the time that he's on the field, a pass rusher isn't going to record a sack, and Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons is focused on making a lot of plays that don't show up in the sack totals.

With quarterback Dak Prescott, the Cowboys played the waiting game - and lost.With Micah Parsons, they should not delay.Parsons, regardless of whether he's a linebacker or a defensive end, is arguably the best defensive player in football.He becomes eligible for a new contract immediately after the 2023 regular season ends.

Patriots Micah Parsons and Bill Belichick were both in attendance for Game 1 between the Celtics and Heat at TD Garden.Micah Parsons knew it was coming.The Cowboys star linebacker was spotted courtside at TD Garden for the Celtics' Game 1 matchup against Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals.His wardrobe choice raised a few eyebrows, especially with Bill Belichick in attendance.

Dan Quinn is not about Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons changing positions on us.The best thing for the Dallas Cowboys is to let Dan Quinn and Micah Parsons do what they do.Quinn may have been a failed NFL head coach, but even I would admit that he is a fantastic defensive coordinator.As for Parsons, he just makes plays defensively.

Micah Parsons is moving over to defensive end next season, and he had the perfect trainer to work with in former offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth.The Dallas Cowboys are preparing for another season in which they plan to make it to the Super Bowl, something they have not done since the 1995 campaign.

Micah Parsons clapped back at new divisional rival D'Andre Swift for taking jabs at the Cowboys franchise....turns out, it was but a cruel trick.Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons is always ready to run through a wall for his franchise, so when newly minted Philadelphia Eagles running back D'Andre Swift seemingly insulted America's Favorite Team, Parsons barked back.

Here are some spicy new details on the circumstances surrounding the Eagles' Jalen Carter pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.Everyone's talking about how the Philadelphia Eagles won the draft, but few are talking about how Jalen Carter also won the draft.The Georgia defensive tackle gets to join one of the best teams in the league right now, growing and developing alongside a supremely talented group of veterans in Philly and competing for a ring in Year 1.

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons had heavy praise for the team's first-round pick and defensive tackle Mazi Smith.The Dallas Cowboys held the 26th overall pick in this year's NFL Draft, and there was a variety of directions the team could go in terms of which player to pick.With the top wide receivers, running back Bijan Robinson and Utah tight end Dalton Kincaid off the board, the Cowboys opted to use their selection on Michigan defensive tackle Mazi Smith.

The Cowboys drafted Mazi Smith in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft and fans were immediately shook with flashbacks to Taco Charlton.After the Buffalo Bills traded up to jump the Dallas Cowboys for Utah tight end Dalton Kincaid, many fans of America's Team assumed they would simply take the second-best tight end on the board, Notre Dame's Michael Mayer.

The Dallas Cowboys and Eagles are expected to battle it out next season for the NFC East crown.The rest of the division is tough to predict.The Giants overachieved in 2022 and could be headed for regression, while the Commanders have the same talented core in place but once again have major questions at quarterback.

The first wave of free agency was a roaring success for the Dallas Cowboys.The second and future waves will be focused on covering bases and plugging holes in whatever way possible before the 2023 draft.They accomplished that three-fold on Tuesday by making their initial two external free agent signings in offensive lineman Chuma Edoga and running back Ronald Jones.

The Dallas Cowboys made the huge move to acquire Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks, but it effectively took them out of the running for one player.The Dallas Cowboys learned just how much of an impact Amari Cooper had on their offense after they traded him to the Cleveland Browns ahead of the 2022 season.

Stephon Gilmore officially became a member of the Cowboys when the trade sending him from Indianapolis to Dallas was processed on Wednesday and that means he could officially start looking forward to playing with his new teammates.One teammate that's already on his mind is fellow cornerback Trevon Diggs.

Fans of the Dallas Cowboys currently on cloud nine after the team re-signed Donovan Wilson and Leighton Vander Esch in free agency, and acquired Stephon Gilmore from Indianapolis for a 2023 fifth-round compensatory pick.The release of Ezekiel Elliott brought fans down from that high, but it was the right organizational move and there's plenty to be excited about after the first few days of free agency.

Let's preface this by saying that the Dallas Cowboys were never going to trade for Jalen Ramsey.It was fun dreaming of Ramsey joining Micah Parsons on Dan Quinn's defense, but Dallas' track record suggested it was a pipe dream at best.Like so many trade candidates in recent years, Ramsey was viewed as a logical target for the Cowboys.

Dallas Cowboys fans shamelessly trolled the Eagles after they squandered a 10-point halftime lead in the Super Bowl before losing to the Chiefs.Don't look now, but Philadelphia now has almost as many Super Bow losses (three) as the Cowboys have Super Bowl wins (five) in their respective histories.Believe it or not, though, most of NFL Twitter came to the Eagles - specifically James Bradberry's - defense after Chiefs receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster needlessly trolled the defensive back over his crucial holding penalty that set up Kansas City's game-winning field goal, and prevented Philly's offense from getting the ball back with a chance to win the game with a touchdown or tie it with a field goal.

The Dallas Cowboys are going to add a wide receiver or two this offseason.We're all aware CeeDee Lamb is a premium-level talent, but the options behind him leave something to be desired, including Michael Gallup.While Micah Parsons has been busy recruiting star defenders to Dallas on social media, Trevon Diggs has been fixated on getting his brother, Bills star receiver Stefon Diggs, traded to the Cowboys.

An unhappy Micah Parsons took out his frustration from the Cowboys playoff loss on the offense, as well as 49ers star Deebo Samuel.Micah Parsons and the Dallas defense played well enough to beat the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.That much was clear.Unfortunately, several Dak Prescott turnovers and a limited offensive display doomed the Cowboys.

The Dallas Cowboys made a splash move in trading for Indianapolis Colts cornerback Stephan Gilmore in exchange for a fifth-round pick.Breaking: The Cowboys are acquiring five-time Pro Bowl CB Stephon Gilmore from the Colts, sources tell @AdamSchefter.pic.twitter.com/ZUetUhSvFTESPN (@espn) March 14, 2023 Gilmore, the 2019 Defensive Player of the Year, has been one of the most dominant defensive players in the NFL over the past few seasons.

The Dallas Cowboys have had long-standing interest in Odell Beckham Jr.They rolled out the red carpet to sign him late last season, as Trevon Diggs and Micah Parsons took him to a Mavericks game, where he was the center of attention.When push came to shove, though, Beckham's physical sparked concerns amongst Cowboys officials, and talks broke off.

Dallas Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons really wants the team to sign a free agent away from one of their division rivals.The Dallas Cowboys are looking for answers once again this offseason to figure out what they need to do to get to the NFC Championship Game for the first time since the 1995 season.

The Dallas Cowboys would benefit from adding two playmakers on offense to complement CeeDee Lamb and the recently-franchise tagged Tony Pollard.Dalton Schultz is a free agent after playing on the tag in 2022, and seemingly the only avenue to him returning to the Cowboys for another year was receiving the tag again.

The Dallas Cowboys defense doesn't have many major concerns heading into the offseason.Cornerback obviously tops the list with the futures of Anthony Brown and Jourdan Lewis up in the air, but the position isn't a death knell considering Pro Bowler Trevon Diggs and rookie stud DaRon Bland will be back.

The Dallas Cowboys are well-established as one of the best drafting teams in the league.Just in the last few years, they've netted bonafide superstars in CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons, and gems in the middle rounds including Osa Odighizuwa, Tony Pollard, Donovan Wilson, Dalton Schultz, and yes, Dak Prescott.

There was one big fish in free agency that the Cowboys could have made a play for but the latest NFL rumors suggest he will get hit with the franchise tag.In what is truly a lackluster free agency class for the 2023 offseason overall, there are some bonafide stars at the top of any rankings.And one such stud is former first-round pick Daron Payne, who has spent his first five seasons with the Washington Commanders, blossoming into a game-changing presence on the interior of the defensive line.

The Dallas Cowboys face an important 2023 offseason in which they need to nail every move.Naturally, they are instead going to make some big mistakes.Despite how disheartening the end of the season was for the Dallas Cowboys, there is still reason to be optimistic about the team moving forward.Dak Prescott has proven he can lead a winning team, Tony Pollard likely isn't leaving, Micah Parsons and the defensive core look elite and the team just needs to get over the playoff hump.

Calijah Kancey blew everyone away at the NFL Combine, now we're looking at an NFL mock draft for possible fits that could maximize the Pitt defensive lineman.Every year at the NFL Combine, we see players significantly raise their stock for the NFL Draft with the way they wow with their athletic testing.

The Dallas Cowboys 2022 draft class will be one to remember.That includes second-round pick Sam Williams, who contributed 10 tackles for loss and four sacks despite playing behind Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence off the edge.Williams showed loads of potential in a part-time role, and fans are hopeful he takes a leap as a sophomore in an increased role.

The Dallas Cowboys' loss to the San Francisco 49ers doesn't fall on the defense.The offense managed 12 points, and put the defense in impossible situations with two interceptions from Dak Prescott, the first of which set the 49ers up just outside the red zone.Despite facing immense pressure to make a stand, the defense limited San Francisco to a field goal on the short field.

Even though they couldn't get past the second round (again), the Dallas Cowboys should be proud of securing their second-straight 12-5 season.It's even more impressive knowing they were 4-1 with Cooper Rush starting under center while Dak Prescott was injured.Now with the offseason here, they're going to look to continue to build their roster.

Despite the way his tenure as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons ended up, there is still a ton to like about Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn if you're an NFL team in need of a new leader.Quinn may not have an offensive background, but his defense was ferocious this season.Instrumental in the development of Micah Parsons and the biggest reason for Dallas standing out as a top-ten unit across the league, Quinn has reestablished himself as a defensive savant.

While Mike McCarthy's job is safe, the Dallas Cowboys, seemingly out of nowhere, announced sweeping changes to their coaching staff this week they failed to make it to the NFC Championship Game for the 27th season in a row.The coaches not returning to Dallas include linebackers coach George Edwards, who was instrumental in the development of Micah Parsons, and a potential candidate to replace Dan Quinn assuming he's hired as a head coach.

The Dallas Cowboys will need all hands on deck for Sunday's Divisional Round showdown against the (hated) San Francisco 49ers.As great as it would be to have starters Terence Steele, Anthony Brown, and Jourdan Lewis for the matchup, the NFL season is all about navigating injuries, and the Cowboys have done exceptional in that department.

The Dallas Cowboys finally got the monkey off their backs.Dallas hadn't won a playoff game on the road since 1992 but they were able to secure one on Monday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.In addition to that stat, they were also 0-for-7 against Tom Brady including Week 1 in both 2021 and 2022.

The Dallas Cowboys' star-power is a huge reason they're in the playoffs for the second consecutive season.Between Dak Prescott, Micah Parsons, Tyron Smith, Ezekiel Elliott, Zack Martin, and CeeDee Lamb, the Cowboys' current list of superstars knows no bounds.That laundry list doesn't even include rising stars Trevon Diggs, Tony Pollard, and Dalton Schultz, and established, but underrated, veterans like DeMarcus Lawrence, Donovan Wilson, Jayron Kearse, and Leighton Vander Esch.

Dallas Cowboys defensive star Micah Parsons did not make the Players' All-Pro list, and he wasn't happy about it.Micah Parsons is one of the best defensive players in all of football.Yet, somehow, the Cowboys linebacker did not make the cut for the Players' All-Pro list, which is voted on by his peers, rather than just some writers.

The Dallas Cowboys laid an egg in Week 18.There's no other way to put it.Did they try their hardest to win? Probably not, especially when you consider they attempted a grand total of three (!) play-action passes in the game.The Cowboys will undoubtedly be sent packing against the Buccaneers if they perform like that again, but it's fair to assume that wasn't the real Cowboys.

The Dallas Cowboys will be playing on Wild Card Weekend for the second straight season and second under coach Mike McCarthy.Last season, the Cowboys lost a heartbreaker to the 49ers at home 23-17 in the first round.A slight favorite heading into the game, Dallas failed to execute their game plan and come out on top.

The Cowboys will get the No. 1 seed in the NFC with a win and an Eagles' loss.As Dallas hopes to steal the top spot AND division away, DraftKings has a spectacular new Week 18 promo: Bet $5, Win $200 if at least ONE TD is scored in Cowboys vs. Commanders!See below how the offer works and what to do, as well as my favorite bet for the contest.

Bart Scott spoke insolently about Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, and Higgins' mother is infuriated at the incident.When Bart Scott blamed Tee Higgins for the horrific ordeal involving Bills safety Damar Hamlin, Twitter exploded.Now, Higgins' mom is angry and should be.Camilla "Lady" Stewart took to Twitter to voice her clear anger towards Scott for even speaking in such terms.

The Dallas Cowboys will not be facing Malik Willis on Thursday night, as Josh Dobbs will make the start instead.Josh Dobbs was claimed off the Detroit Lions practice squad a mere eight days ago, and now he will start an all-important game for the Tennessee Titans.Dobbs, who played college football at the University of Tennessee, will surely have an entire state rooting for him to succeed.

The Dallas Cowboys are set to debut new 'Arctic Cowboy' uniforms for Week 17, and fans are feeling all sorts of ways about them.The Dallas Cowboys are feeling bold for the final Thursday Night Football matchup of 2022 and are set to debut new 'Arctic Cowboy' uniforms, previewed on their official Twitter page.

After Thursday night's win in Nashville, the Dallas Cowboys secured 12 victories in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1994-95.Pretty impressive feat from the oft-criticized Mike McCarthy, don't you think?While McCarthy's success in Dallas will ultimately be determined by the playoffs, there's no denying he was a great hire by the franchise.

The Dallas Cowboys won ugly against the Titans on Thursday night football.While Tennessee was without Ryan Tannehill, who's out for the season with an ankle injury, Dallas has its own injury concerns.Perhaps none of those are more worrisome than Leighton Vander Esch's shoulder stinger.Vander Esch suffered the injury in the Week 15 loss to Jacksonville.
