Daily Cowboys with Jeff Cavanaugh

The Dak Discussion || CeeDee Lamb NEEDS the ball more || Cowboys defense failures | Jeff Cavanaugh

42-10 against the 49ers leads to the first legitimate Dak Prescott discussion in a long time. Can this thing ultimately work? In a league with the superhero QBs and the genius offensive minds, can Mike McCarthy and Dak Prescott really expect to win the whole thing? And if not.......

CeeDee Lamb is frustrated and he SHOULD be. The numbers tell you that he needs to be targeted way more than he has been this year.

What about this defense? That was supposed to be a given. And so far? Dan Quinn and his crew have a lot of work to do.

Cowboys Notebook: Nuggets on Tyron Smith, Dak Prescott, Tony Pollard, Stephon Gilmore, DaRon Bland | Jeff Cavanaugh

I've got a few nuggets on a handful of Dallas Cowboys players after the dismantling of the Giants on Sunday.

How good was Tyron Smith in the season debut? I've got a stat that will tell you.

Tony Pollard on his return from injury? Same thing.

Dak Prescott didn't need to do a whole lot but based on what we did see, be encouraged.

Plus the Cowboys probably have the best cornerback group in the NFL with Trevon Diggs, Stephon Gilmore and DaRon Bland. The numbers back it up on a couple of these guys.
