    Across The Cowboys: Preseason Recap + Final 53 Roster Predictions

    Training camp is winding down and the Cowboys just made a blockbuster move — Von Miller is coming home! Paul and Mike "The Pig" Crum break down the signing: should Cowboys fans be excited, or is this a wait-and-see move for a 37-year-old? Is Miller still a difference-maker, and does he finally solve the pass rush? Plus the crew recaps Saturday's preseason game against the Seahawks — which players helped or hurt their roster case on both sides of the ball, what Camden Brown's performance means for the WR room, and whether this roster is built around star power or depth. Then Mike delivers his View From The Sidelines, Brenden goes Dealer's Choice for Brenden's Bashing, and we close it out with One Word on the backup quarterbacks and a Top 5 on the best autographs we've ever gotten. All that and more on Across The Cowboys!

    Cowboys Crystal Ball: Predicting Colts, 49ers, Titans & Eagles

    Cowboys Crystal Ball rolls on! Paul and Brenden "Fergy" Smith are joined by special guest Dyntasy Zack to predict the next four games on the Cowboys' 2026 slate. First, it's a trip to Indy: after a career year cut short by a torn Achilles, what should we expect from Daniel Jones — and is he still a bust? Then the 49ers come to town, and the crew debates whether Brock Purdy is overrated, why San Francisco has out-succeeded Dallas, and whether Mike Evans is the missing piece for that offense. After a Week 11 bye-week breather, the biggest question of the night: for THIS Cowboys roster, would you rather have Dak Prescott at his price or Cam Ward on the cheap? Plus Carnell Tate's fantasy stock, whether the Titans are a trap game, and how much of the Eagles' Super Bowl run Jalen Hurts really deserves credit for. It all closes on Thanksgiving with Dallas hosting Philly — the more talented QB or the one with the ring? — before record predictions, playoff talk, and Super Bowl picks. All that and more on Cowboys Crystal Ball!

    Cowboys Crystal Ball: Predicting Weeks 5 -8 (Bucs, Cardinals, Packers, & Eagles)

    Cowboys Crystal Ball is back! Paul, Mike "The Pig" Crum, and Brenden "Fergy" Smith break down the next four games on the Cowboys' 2026 slate. First up, the Buccaneers come to town: is Baker Mayfield underrated, and is there ANY area where Tampa has the edge on Dallas? Then it's a trip to Lambeau, where the crew debates which playoff loss hurts more — 2016 or 2023 — and whether the Packers are still a threat without Josh Jacobs and Micah Parsons. Next, the big one: Cowboys at Eagles. Did Philly do enough to stay on top of the NFC East, and how much of an edge does Christian Parker give Dallas in this matchup? Finally, the Cardinals — a team that's somehow gone 5-1 against Dak's Cowboys — roll into AT&T Stadium with rookie Jeremiah Love and a retooled offense. Plus, each game gets the full treatment: NFL rankings, one player we'd steal for the Cowboys, and our winner picks. We close it out with a record recap, circled games, playoff talk, and Super Bowl predictions. All that and more on part two of Cowboys Crystal Ball!Do you want to start your own podcast?
