NFL minds rank Jake Ferguson as top half tight end
The Dallas Cowboys have an extremely talented offense. You would be hard pressed to find anyone who disagrees with that idea.

Cowboys fans pick the 2026 interception leader for the team
The overriding narrative for the Dallas Cowboys this offseason is that they have to fix their defense. The offense is contender-worthy, but that won’t get you very far if the defense makes every opposing offense also look contender-worthy. To that end, the Cowboys overhauled almost everything on that side of the ball. New defensive coordinator […]

Why clutch QBs don’t exist (and why it looks like they do)
I have a dry-cleaner who loves giving me health advice. Every week, she tells something new to try, a water fast, linseed oil, all sorts of homeopathic stuff, tai chi walking, cupping therapy, you get the drift.
