August, 19, 2012 By Dan Graziano | ESPN.com The Dallas Cowboys' second preseason game was a 28-20 exhibition loss to the San Diego Chargers. Yet it gave Cowboys fans more reason to feel good then did their 3-0 preseason victory over the Raiders on Monday night. Such is life in the preseason...

August, 17, 2012 By Todd Archer OXNARD, Calif. – The Cowboys made a quick roster move before boarding a train for San Diego by waiving running back Ed Wesley. Wesley, a TCU-ex, was late to Friday’s walkthrough, which likely sealed his fate. He had been supplanted in the backup tailback...

Yesterday there were reports that practice was garbage. A lot of players were slow, sloppy, receivers dropping balls, etc. What does Garrett do? He lines Bailey up, tells the team that if he makes a 27 yard field goal, that practice is over and the team will go to the beach. Smart move by a...

Posted 30 minutes ago Bryan Broaddus Football Analyst/Scout Checking out Claiborne For the sake of Morris Claiborne and these defensive coaches, it’s really nice to have him on the practice field. He can take all the mental reps he wants but trying to learn new scheme and technique is...

Last nights game sucked. I haven't been that disinterested in a game since I was getting shitfaced and turning many of our 2010 games off pre-Wade firing. Derrick Dockery didn't impress. Neither did Ronald Learly. I was impressed with David Arkin's quickness. To get out of the defensive...
