    The Dallas Cowboys Biggest Problem is....

    The Dallas Cowboys have a serious problem, but who's really to blame? Is it the players on the field, or is it the coaching staff failing to put them in positions to succeed? On today's episode of The Landry Hat Podcast, Zac Lee and FootsDaKing break down the Cowboys' loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and debate the biggest issues facing Dallas through five weeks of the 2026 NFL season. We dive into Christian Parker's struggling Cowboys defense, the defensive personnel and lack of execution, and whether Brian Schottenheimer deserves more criticism for the offense's inconsistent performances. We also discuss Jake Ferguson's costly mistakes, Dak Prescott's performance, the Cowboys' inability to overcome turnovers, and the recurring self-inflicted mistakes that continue to hurt this team. The biggest question: Do the Cowboys have a talent problem, a coaching problem, or BOTH?

    The Dallas Cowboys Biggest Problem is....

    The Dallas Cowboys MASSIVE Win Over the Texans Was Because of These Guys

    The Dallas Cowboys are back to .500 after a 34-30 win over the Houston Texans, but this game gave us plenty to talk about. Dak Prescott delivered when Dallas needed him most, CeeDee Lamb completely took over the game, Javonte Williams found the end zone three times, and George Pickens continued to make a huge impact even on limited touches. We also break down the Cowboys offensive line, Tyler Guyton’s continued development, Quinnen Williams and Rashan Gary finally getting home as pass rushers, Joey Porter Jr.’s impressive Cowboys debut, and some legitimate improvement from the Dallas run defense. But not everything is fixed. C.J. Stroud and the Texans still created way too many explosive plays through the air, Nico Collins had a huge game, and the Cowboys secondary continues to have issues that Christian Parker has to get cleaned up. How much should we take away from this win? Is the Cowboys offense starting to find its identity? And is this Dallas defense actually improving, or are the same problems still hiding underneath the surface? Full Cowboys vs. Texans reaction, analysis, player standouts, concerns and everything Dallas needs to build on heading into Thursday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

    How Much Did Joey Porter Jr. Change for the Dallas Cowboys Defense + More Trades Coming? | Cowboys vs. Texans Preview

    How Much Did Joey Porter Jr. Change for the Dallas Cowboys Defense + More Trades Coming? | Cowboys vs. Texans Preview The Dallas Cowboys made a major move by trading for Joey Porter Jr., and his impact could go well beyond simply adding another starting cornerback. In this episode of the Landry Hat Podcast, we break down how Porter changes the structure of the Cowboys defense, what his arrival means for Caleb Downs, Jaishawn Barham, DaRon Bland, Shavon Revel Jr. and Malik Hooker, and how defensive coordinator Christian Parker can use more man coverage, disguise and aggressive pressure packages with another reliable outside corner. We also discuss whether the Cowboys could have more trades coming, which positions still need help, and whether Dallas should keep adding to the defense after a 1-2 start. Then we preview Dallas Cowboys vs. Houston Texans in Week 4, including Dak Prescott vs. the Texans pass rush, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens vs. Houston’s secondary, C.J. Stroud vs. the Cowboys defense, Will Anderson Jr., Derek Stingley Jr., Nico Collins, and the biggest matchups that could decide the game. Can the Cowboys defense finally take a step forward? How much does Joey Porter Jr. raise the ceiling of this secondary? And can Dallas avoid falling to 1-3 with a road win over Houston? We cover all of it in this full Cowboys Texans preview, plus the latest Dallas Cowboys news, trade rumors, defensive analysis, roster moves and Week 4 storylines.

    The Dallas Cowboys Are So Close, but Yet So Far Away After Loss to Ravens

    The Dallas Cowboys came painfully close to beating the Baltimore Ravens, but once again, self-inflicted mistakes made the difference. In this episode of The Landry Hat Podcast, we break down everything that went wrong in the Cowboys’ 34-31 loss to Baltimore, including turnovers, penalties, special teams mistakes, clock management, and the final sequence that left Dallas just two yards away from a potential win. We’ll go through the Cowboys offense, defense, special teams, and coaching decisions, including Dak Prescott and the passing game, the Javonte Williams fourth-down sequence, Jake Ferguson’s fumble, Brandon Aubrey’s blocked field goal, kickoffs out of bounds, defensive penalties, and the late-game decisions that gave Baltimore one final opportunity. The frustrating part is that Dallas made mistake after mistake and still had a chance to win the game at the goal line. So what does this loss actually tell us about the Cowboys moving forward? Is the offense good enough to carry this team? Is the defense improving? And how much blame should fall on the coaching staff for another game that came down to situational football? Full Cowboys vs. Ravens reaction, analysis, takeaways and everything Dallas needs to clean up heading into the next game.

    What We NEED to Learn About the Dallas Cowboys in their Week 2 Matchup vs. Commanders

    The Dallas Cowboys have a lot to prove in Week 2 against Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders. After an ugly defensive performance against the New York Giants, Zac and FootsDaKing break down the biggest questions facing the Cowboys heading into this matchup. Was Week 1 simply one terrible defensive performance, or did it expose real problems with Christian Parker’s new Cowboys defense? With DeMarvion Overshown and Malik Hooker out, rookie linebacker Jaishawn Barham is stepping into a massive role at MIKE linebacker and will wear the green dot against one of the NFL’s most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks. The guys also dive into the Cowboys offense and why Dallas shouldn’t be afraid to trust Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens and the passing game against Washington’s secondary. Should the Cowboys stop worrying so much about “establishing the run”? Can the offensive tackles hold up well enough for Dallas to attack downfield? And why could blitzing Dak Prescott be a major mistake for the Commanders defense? On the other side of the ball, the biggest question might be whether Dallas can pressure Jayden Daniels without constantly sending extra rushers. Philadelphia pressured Daniels on nearly 48% of his dropbacks while largely getting home with four, while the Cowboys generated just two pressures on 20 four-man rushes against New York. Zac and Foots also discuss maintaining rush lanes against Daniels, Donovan Ezeiruaku’s struggles setting the edge, Christian Parker’s defensive adjustments and which Cowboys players need to respond the most in Week 2. It’s a full Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Commanders preview with the matchups, players and questions that could decide the game.
