The Cowboys had not returned a kickoff for a touchdown since 2008. It’s odd, then, to think that rookie CeeDee Lamb would get barked at by his coaching staff and teammates for finally taking one to the house in the waning moments of Sunday’s meeting with the visiting 49ers. But that’s exactly what happened. After one of the most electrifying plays of Dallas’s disappointing 2020 season, the promising young rookie found himself apologizing. “Honestly, it all happened so fast. It was… Source link

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones is still sticking with his head coach. Frankly, he’s surprised it’s even a question. Jones back Mike McCarthy while on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas on Monday and said the coach will be back for the 2021 season. Jones: ‘No change’ with McCarthy Jones said there “will be absolutely no change with coach Mike McCarthy.” Via ESPN: “If you look at his track record and pedigree, he’s consistently won year in and year out and we have the… Source link

The Conversation Brazil’s president rejects COVID-19 vaccine, undermining a century of progress toward universal inoculation The world is eagerly awaiting the release of several COVID-19 vaccines, but Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is not. “I’m not going to take it. It’s my right,” he said in a Nov. 26 social media broadcast. Bolsonaro, who came down with COVID-19 in July, has also criticized face masks. He and his more faithful supporters oppose any suggestion of mandatory… Source link

Say this for the NFC East: They’re a generous bunch. Nobody wants anybody else to feel too bad about themselves. They’re happy to take on L after L to keep the rest of the league — or their visitors — happy. The Dallas Cowboys were in a giving mood on Thanksgiving, offering up fumbles, pick sixes, dropped passes, crucial penalties and dubious play-calling that resulted in a resounding 41-16 victory for the Washington Football Team. Such polite hosts! Washington’s Antonio Gibson came… Source link

The Guardian Steve Dalkowski: the life and mystery of baseball’s flame-throwing what-if Many believe the lefthander was the fastest pitcher to ever take the mound. But his career – and life – went off the rails before he could make an impactSteve Dalkowski, a career minor-leaguer who very well could have been the fastest (and wildest) pitcher in baseball history, died in April at the age of 80 from complications from Covid-19. And yet, partly because of one missing detail, his legend lives… Source link

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones took an optimistic tone about his team’s 23-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night. During his weekly interview on Dallas’ 105.3 The Fan, he said that he felt the team played better in general despite the final result of the game. It wouldn’t be a Jerry interview without some brutal honesty, though, and he saved some of it for rookie quarterback Ben DiNucci. The 2020 draft pick, who was pressed into service following Dak Prescott’s injury… Source link

A media conference call involving Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Mike Nolan didn’t go well for the coach on Monday afternoon, though it provided fans with a perfect metaphor of how well the season is going for Dallas. Nolan had to briefly step away from the call with reporters after accidentally getting hot sauce in his eye. Yes, really. Cowboys DC gets hot sauce in his eyes Nolan got Tabasco sauce on his fingers and then started rubbing his eye during the Zoom call. That didn’t feel… Source link

Week 6 is shaping up to be the first soul-crushing bye week on the schedule. The Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Chargers, New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks are all on rest. That takes a lot of high-end fantasy talent off the board, forcing fantasy managers to turn to their bench for help. Here are my half-point PPR fantasy football rankings for Week 6. 1. Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals (at Dallas Cowboys) 2. Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs (at Buffalo Bills) 3. Josh Allen, Buffalo… Source link

After Dak Prescott’s injury, Andy Dalton goes under the microscope. That’s what happens for any quarterback. It’s especially true on a team like the Dallas Cowboys. Prescott might have been a polarizing player to some, but it’s hard to deny the results. Prescott led the NFL with 371.2 passing yards per game, and that includes him missing about a half of last week’s game after his season-ending injury. His career passer rating of 97.3 is fourth all-time. Tom Brady is sixth at 97…. Source link

No. 1 will be revealed on Aug. 5.  (Yahoo Sports graphics by Paul Rosales) More Dak Prescott bet on himself by playing on the franchise tag and not accepting a long-term deal from the Dallas Cowboys.
