IRVING, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys have not played a down of their 2014 schedule, so maybe it is a little early to look at the 2015 schedule. If you don’t want to know, then click away. If you do, here goes: In addition to the New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Redskins...

The second half of the Cowboys' takedown of Chicago included a lot of yelling -- from the winning side. No matter what the score was, NFL Network cameras showed Dez Bryant and cornerback Orlando Scandrick seemingly taking turns screaming on the sideline. Bryant seemed upset one time when the...

Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray carried a workload unseen in the NFL in five years on Thursday night. Murray had 32 carries for 179 yards and nine catches for 49 yards in the win at Chicago. That total of 41 touches made him the first NFL player to go over 40 touches in a game since Jerome...

Question: How could the Cowboys show up with so little fire — both sides of the ball. From the quarterback who was throwing ducks to the wide receiver who refused to fight for the ball. The offense looked absolutely lost and I am talking about the first two possessions. Gosselin: Puzzles me as...

According to a source with direct knowledge of the situation, University of Florida Athletic Director Jeremy Foley will contact Eagles head coach Chip Kelly as early as Tuesday of this week to “kick the tires” on Kelly’s interest in returning to the college scene, Marc Farzetta of CBS...

Fans passing through the northern entrance to AT&T Stadium often stop and take pictures of the Tom Landry statue, a larger-than-life depiction in which Tom gazes off to the west, perhaps wondering why there's a Wal-Mart next to a football stadium. Beyond that, at least for a moment, Tom looks...

IRVING — Jerry Jones left town after Philadelphia dismantled the Cowboys in a Thanksgiving showdown for the NFC East lead. No, he wasn’t driven away. This trip was planned before kickoff. Jones said Friday on KRLD-FM (105.3) that he was “sitting on a mountain top … with one of the most...

IRVING — Dez Bryant kept shouting the same phrase over and over as he walked off the field and up the tunnel to the Cowboys locker room after a humiliating loss to Philadelphia. “Two weeks,” he yelled. “Two weeks.” That’s when the Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles meet again. Bryant and his...

IRVING — By most measures, the Dallas Cowboys are having a successful season. They are 8-4, have the league’s leading rusher and the defense hasn’t been as historically inept as expected. But the season is teetering on the brink of disappointment after the Eagles’ 33-10 thrashing of the Cowboys...

ARLINGTON -- When Rick Carlisle talked recently about NBA games being won and lost in the first quarter, I wondered if maybe he had the wrong league in mind. NFL games? It happens all the time. The big first-place showdown in the NFC East never materialized because the Cowboys defense didn't...

Dez Bryant awaits rematch vs. 'kinda cheap' Eagles 11/28/2014 11:05:41 AM Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant said some Philadelphia Eagles players were "being kinda cheap" during the teams' NFC East showdown on Thanksgiving Day, Calvin Watkins of ESPN Dallas reports. And because of that...

Just a generic question. I know there's a lot of variables, but just ignore them for the sake of the poll.

THE SUN shone brightly in eastern Pennsylvania yesterday, a dazzling change from the Monday-morning hangover weather: endless clouds and drizzle, brought, perhaps, by the rainmaker passes thrown by Aaron Rodgers. By yesterday the region was well into recovery from post-Packers malaise; buoyed...

By Bob Sturm Follow @sportssturm sturm1310@me.com Today’s exercise during the bye week is draft related. So, for some of you, this is either a topic that is not interesting at all and for others, it is not interesting at this moment. I totally understand both groups who either ignore the...

DAVID MOORE Staff Writer Follow @DavidMooreDMN dmoore@dallasnews.com IRVING — Players were in a good mood Tuesday as they returned to work at Valley Ranch. Why not? Nine days removed from their last game, the Cowboys reconvened with the knowledge that only one team in the NFC has a better...

By Drew Davison ddavison@star-telegram.com This season is spiraling out of control for the New York Giants. They are in the midst of a five-game losing streak; they are openly second-guessing themselves after losses; their offensive line is being exposed in both the running and passing games...

11/18/2014 Running back DeMarco Murray’s role in the Cowboys offense might get even bigger down the stretch, Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. Murray, who leads the league with 1,233 yards on 244 carries with seven touchdowns, is ready to put the Cowboys on his back and...

The Dallas Cowboys have the league’s leading rusher. They are also averaging 153.2 yards per game on the ground, second-best in the NFL. So after finishing 24th in rushing a year ago, Dallas’ offensive line room must be a pretty upbeat place. Probably a bunch of 300-pounders sitting around...

IRVING — Maybe now you’ve become a believer in rookie Anthony Hitchens. Six months ago, everyone with a mouth, it seemed, questioned why the Cowboys used a fourth-round pick on the Iowa linebacker whom many had projected to go much lower in the draft. Since May, Hitchens has played all three...

By Clarence E. Hill Jr. chill@star-telegram.com By all accounts, the Dallas Cowboys won the bye week. Where is my air lasso? Where is former coach Wade Phillips when you need him? Heck, what the Cowboys accomplished by sitting idle over the weekend is far greater than declaring a first-round...
