LATEST STORIES FROM LONE STAR STRUCK

New Toy Awaiting Rob Ryan Via Free Agency

With free agency little more than a month away, names are starting to surface as free agent targets of the Cowboys. Carl Nicks is the most popular name, and possibly the most legitimate possibility to sure up the interior offensive line. Ben Grubbs is the less popular version of Nicks, and would probably come at a cheaper price, as well. Calais Campbell, a gargantuan defensive lineman...

“Put the glasses on! Put ‘em on!”

Does anyone remember the 1988 John Carpenter movie called “They Live”? I have often thought there were many similarities with that movie and Tony Romo. It’s a story of a guy who stumbles across a pair of sunglasses that when worn wakes him from the trance he has been under and shows him exactly how the world is. Without them it showed how the world is actually brain washed...

One Can Always Hope…

Giants win the Super Bowl… Totally sucks… It could have been us… It should have been us! Anyway, time to move forward…. Saw this on ESPN and thought I’d share it here: SportsCenter posed the question: “Which team that missed the playoffs has the best chance of winning Super Bowl XLVII?” Analyst Tim Hasselbeck’s answer: The Dallas Cowboys...

Last Mock Off Season Of January 2012

I have been busy with my off season addiction of researching free agents and draft hopefuls again. Right now I am knee deep in mock drafts and have completed a few complete off seasons as well. I am also currently finishing up my defensive analysis, which I will post in a couple days before leaving for Florida to work for a bit. Here is the last off season mock I made and posted...

Even a broken clock is right twice a day!

It has been largely discussed and argued whether or not Jerry Jones is to blame for the Cowboys failures over the years. I’ve read that the blame goes to the Cowboys coaches. I’ve read the blame goes to the players. I’ve read that the blame goes to Jerry Jones for not having a true football person in charge instead of Jones doing it himself.  I’ve also read...

Jones Was Right: Cowboys Should NOT Focus On Drafting A QB

Hello fellow Dallas Cowboys fans. Before I begin my first post I would just like to introduce myself. My name is Greg Pomes. I’m a Cowboys fan from New York City. I’ve been a Cowboys fan since I was seven or eight years old. My favorite all time Cowboys are Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith. I’m looking forward to communicating with everyone about our favorite football team! There...

Cowboys Need More Players Who HATE To Lose

Most of the time I hardly agree with anything JJT has to say, but I must say he is spot on with this post in which he calls into questions the Cowboys’ inability to come through in the clutch. Jason Garrett can fix the Cowboys. First, though, he must stop lying to himself. He can add a pass-rusher from the draft, or a guard and a cornerback in free agency – and it still...

Dez Bryant Arrested?

Robert Littal of BlackSportsOnline.com is reporting that Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant has possibly been arrested. A source informed Littal that Bryant was involved in a physical altercation at a Club last night and that he was possibly incarcerated. If true, this wouldn’t be Bryant’s first scuffle with the law. The Cowboys’ talented young receiver has...

2011 Dallas Cowboys Player Analysis: Offense

Quarterback Tony Romo: With 6 seasons starting under his belt, Romo enters the 2012 season at age 32 as a mature passer with great pocket presence and awareness. With an upgrade at the interior of the offensive line, Romo should have another great statistical year. Will he have a Super Bowl winning year? We’ll see… Stephen McGee: McGee enters a contract year where he hasn...

Victor Butler: A rising star in Dallas

When it came time for the Cowboys to make their selection in the 4th round of the 2009 NFL Draft they choose defensive end Victor Butler out of Oregon State. Thoughts were to convert Victor Butler to outside linebacker in the Cowboys 3-4 defense. Three years after being drafted Butler has made a successful transition to outside linebacker and also contributes to the Cowboys special...

Welcome to my fantasy world!

Since all Cowboys fans know that not much is going to change as long as Jerry Jones is in charge I thought I would jump in and play GM just like Jerry does. I won’t pretend that I understand the salary cap or anything that goes along with it. I’m just giving my opinion on some things and of course having some fun. I understand that it’s probably about 99% fantasy...

Another Cowboys season ends in disappointment

I can’t say I was surprised at what happened against the Giants in the final game of the season. The Cowboys have been inconsistent all season long. Why would I believe things would be different in the final game, which is what I wrote about last week? I won’t even get into the specifics of the game other than to say once again this team could not play four quarters,...

Get Your Game Faces On!

Well here we go Cowboys fans… This is where the rubber meets the road… It’s do or die… Tomorrow by this time we’ll either be home licking our wounds or shouting “Go Cowboys” from our rooftops. Here’s to a big win against the Giants tonight… It will be Tony Romo’s opportunity to squash all the rumors that he doesn’t...

The Rematch

As I sit watching the replay of the Cowboys-Giants game from a few weeks ago on NFL Network, a few things are clear. 1. Terence Newman should have had a pick six early in the first quarter. 2. The Cowboys secondary played horrible. 3. Eli Manning had all day to throw. 6. The Cowboys defense seemed confused many times. 4. Felix Jones ran the ball very well. 5. Tony Romo played amazing...

New to the Silver and Blue: Kevin Kowalski

If you are a Dallas Cowboy fan, you know that a lot of the most productive players current and past aren’t drafted, but undrafted free agents. Another free agent added to the team this season is rookie center Kevin Kowalski. Kevin is 6’2″ weighing in at 200 lbs. and playing behind center Phil Costa. Kevin has played in five games so far this season. His first snaps...

After 15 games why should we believe things are going to be different going into the 16th game?

The 2011 NFC East title will come down to the last game of the season between the Cowboys and the Giants. The NFL has moved the game to Sunday Night Football on NBC as well. What will happen in this game is anyone’s guess. I’ve said it many times before that I tell it like it is when it comes to the Cowboys. Other than being a loyal fan and sticking with your team what...

Do or Die Next Week… Again…

With the relevancy of the Cowboys-Eagles game reduced to an exhibition game yesterday afternoon, the Cowboys decided to take Christmas Eve off in what I still considered to be the tune up to Armageddon next week against the Giants. The Cowboys have now lost three of their last four games after their 20-7 loss to the Eagles, the Cowboys also lost to the first meeting with the Eagles...

The Truth Hurts

I am not ashamed to express my “not so great” feelings for our owner Jerry Jones. I lost 90% of all respect for him when he bought the team and treated our legendary coach Tom Landry like, in my opinion, “a piece of meat”. The way that he would come to the sidelines half-way thru a game and make decisions about the game that should have been left up to the coach. I could...

Here they come around the final turn!

The Cowboys and Giants head into the last three weeks of the 2011 season with a lot on the line. The NFC East division title is still up for grabs. I was looking at the NFL tie breakers and added where both the Giants and Cowboys stand as of right now. The Cowboys and Giants are tied in the NFC East with 7-6 records. Of course the Giants are ahead due to their victory last weekend...

It Was Not Romo’s Fault

Ok I have read the past few posts of my fellow fans and bloggers. One thing is really starting to bother me about this sunday’s game. That you are blaming Romo for this loss. It was NOT Romo’s fault we lost this game. He got the job done. When we needed him too, he drove the team down the field, made the plays and got HIS job done. How is throwing for 321 yards with 4...

It Takes More Than Sexy Stats To Be A Warrior

I warned about this in my post yesterday in which I wrote: The NFC East title is at stake tonight and for either the Giants or Cowboys, their season is at stake as well. A loss for the Cowboys will be a devastating blow to their season and they’ll have nine months to lick their wounds if that happens. The best bet for the Cowboys, is to take Eli Manning out of the game. Manning...

So now what happens?

Now what happens with the Cowboys? How many times can we watch these Cowboys lose these kinds of games? The Cowboys looked like they were heading towards a division championship as they led the Giants 34-22 with five minutes to go in the game. Then once again as has been the case this season and in past seasons the Cowboys defense allowed a team to drive down the field and score...

Tony Fiammetta – Large Part Of Running Game

It has been a up and down season for fullback Tony Fiammetta.  The 2009 4th round draft pick of the Carolina Panthers was waived September 3, 2011, after battling concussion issues.  The Cowboys claimed him September 4, 2011, but was waived just four days later.  Then he re-signed with Dallas on September 13th. We know as Cowboy fans, that to have a solid running game a fullback...

Cowboys Need To Take A Giant Step Tonight

I’m still besides myself over last week’s loss to the Arizona Cardinals, but hey every journey has a few bumps along the way. What really irks me more than the losses themselves is the fact that so many of them were completely avoidable and unnecessary. Anyway, here it is… The biggest and most important game of the Cowboys’ season is tonight at 8:20 pm...
