From a rookie safety facing the team that passed on him twice to whether Christian Parker's retooled defense can hold up, here's what's actually driving the buzz ahead of Dallas's Week 1 opener at MetLife Stadium.

Dallas has its 53-man roster set, but injured reserve moves, a crowded QB room, and the waiver wire mean more changes are coming. Our writers break down what happens next.

Malik Davis, Jaydon Blue, and Phil Mafah are all fighting for the same job behind Javonte Williams, and Dallas has just 48 hours after Friday's finale to decide.

Oxnard is in the rearview. Here's what actually traveled home with the Cowboys — the defense built around rookie Caleb Downs, Malik Davis's quiet case in the backfield, and every other storyline that matters with one preseason game left.

Two Doomsday Legacy writers debate the Von Miller signing: is the 37-year-old DeSoto native a low-risk veteran boost for Dallas's pass rush, or a roster luxury crowding out the Cowboys' young edge room?

OXNARD, Calif. — Two weeks ago it was the Rams. Tuesday it was the Saints. Either way, the pattern for this Cowboys defense in joint practices is starting to look the same: overwhelm the line of scrimmage first, worry about the manners later. Dallas controlled long stretches of its lone joint practice with New Orleans at these same River Ridge fields, got a vintage deep shot from Dak Prescott to George Pickens on the other side of the ball, and then spent the final hour getti

OXNARD, Calif. — Forget the pads and the scorecard for a second. Tuesday's joint practice between the Cowboys and the Rams wasn't really about winning a period, no matter how many training-camp Twitter accounts tried to hand out a trophy for it. It was about finding out who you are before the lights come on. Dallas got exactly what it came for out in Southern California — a heavyweight sparring session against a Rams roster that, on paper, might be the best they see all summe

A UDFA is turning heads, a third-round linebacker looks like a steal, and a tight end's season just ended before it started — everything worth knowing from the last few days in Oxnard.

The Dallas Cowboys are back in Oxnard for the 20th year running, and the opening days of 2026 training camp have already given fans plenty to chew on. Between a newly unveiled Leadership Council, a full-stadium Opening Ceremony, and a handful of players making early statements, here's everything worth knowing from the last few days on the practice fields at the River Ridge Playing Fields. A New Leadership Council Takes Shape Head coach Brian Schottenheimer used the first week

Let's not sugarcoat it — the Cowboys defense was a mess last season, finishing with the league's worst pass defense and leaving fans wondering how a unit with this much talent on paper could look so lost on the field. That collapse is exactly why Dallas handed the keys to new defensive coordinator Christian Parker and then went out and built him a toolbox in the draft. Five of the Cowboys' picks came on the defensive side of the ball, including three straight to open the draf

You may have noticed a theme running through a lot of what's on this site so far — the Doomsday Defense. It's in our name, it's on our products, and it's the subject of more than one feature on this blog already. We want to clear something up: that's not the whole story. Where the Name Comes From The Doomsday Defense was the nickname given to the Cowboys' legendary defensive units of the late 1960s through the 1970s — a group so dominant it became part of franchise identity.
