Our Dallas Cowboys vs. Lions Notebook: All the information, analysis, and quotations from The Star during NFL Week OCT 10 DIGGS OUT about Dak Prescott, Jerry Jones, and “America’s Team” Star cornerback Trevon Diggs of the Cowboys missed practice on Thursday due to an ankle injury and illness listed on the injury report as of Thursday.
Other significant DNPs for the day are Eric Kendricks and Zack Martin. UNLIKELY STARS OCT 6 After a roughly ninety-minute weather delay, the Dallas Cowboys played sloppy football for sixty minutes into the night and into the morning. Two unlikely offensive heroes sealed the Dallas victory with a last-second 20-17 victory.
Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott mishandled the ball twice in the red zone during the game, once on a sack fumble that marked T.J. Watt’s 100th sack of his career and once on an interception that appeared to be the result of a misunderstanding between him and receiver CeeDee Lamb.
However, in the clutch? With only a few seconds remaining, Dak connected with Jalen Tolbert for a fourth-and-goal touchdown. Rico Dowdle’s running earlier in the game had propelled the drive, and Dowdle had himself grabbed a Dak touchdown pass.
Tolbert (seven catches, 87 yards) isn’t CeeDee Lamb. And Dowdle (20 carries, 87 yards) hasn’t had a career like Ezekiel Elliott. But on this tight night and a move to 3-2? Two lesser lights shined the brightest. OCT 5 CEEDEE GUN SIGN? CeeDee Lamb has been fined $11,255 for taunting and $14,069 for what the NFL has deemed a unsportsmanlike conduct/violent gesture after a play. … and both decisions to us seem ifffy. In the Week 4 victory over the Giants, Lamb—who was fined $22,511 for needless roughness in Week 3—caught a pass and appeared to indicate he had a first down while sitting down. Or that he was mimicking the sound of a gunshot?
The judge is you. MCCARTHY SAYS OCT 3… A few of the most important points of the day were covered by coach Mike McCarthy during his press conference on Thursday inside The Star before to practice. To want…”Impressive” is how the coach described the athletic quarterback for the Steelers, Justin Fields. and McCarthy emphasised that Fields is more than just a runner, despite what many people believe. “Old-style” is how he described the Pittsburgh defence under coach Mike Tomlin, referring to their conventional adherence to fundamentals.
This week’s most important injury concern for Dallas is the shoulder of rookie Caelen Carson. The coach stated, “He needs to make a big step today.” OCT 2 INJURY REPORT Caelen Carson, the starting cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers, was listed as “limited” for the first practice of the week on Wednesday. Carson missed the team’s victory against the Giants last week due to an injury.
Although it seems doubtful, young star corner DaRon Bland did work out with trainers here at The Star on the sidelines. He is eligible to come off injured reserve this week. Of course, no Micah Parsons (ankle)… and Demarcus Lawrence (foot) is not included since he was placed on injured reserve and is not currently on the 53-man roster. Notable is also Dalvin Cook’s absence from both practice and this list of running backs. He was sick today, so he missed it. However, as he is not on the 53, he is not listed on the injury report.
Three notable DNPs for Pittsburgh are Cordarrelle Patterson, Jaylen Warren, and Nick Herbig. OCT 1 DE SIGNED K.J. Henry, a pass-rusher, was plucked from the Bengals practice squad and signed by the Cowboys. This degree of action was always the case, despite widespread media claims that mislead Cowboys Nation into believing the team would “explore outside options” of well-known players to assist while Micah Parsons and Demarcus Lawrence were hurt.
As a fifth-round rookie, Henry recorded 1.5 sacks for Washington in the previous season. He will, by rule, be added to the 53-man roster. He is 255 and 6-5. Update on September 29th, Tank DeMarcus Lawrence is allegedly battling with a right foot Lisfranc injury as a result of a problem that arose late in the Giants’ victory on Thursday. Since Lawrence did not have any dislocated bones—a common occurrence in cases of foot injuries—surgeonship is not expected to be necessary.
However, as CowboysCountry.com has reported, Tank will be placed on injured reserve because, according to ESPN, his recuperation period might last eight weeks. CROTCH GRAB, SEPT 19. NFL Week 2 Sunday saw the Saints’ quarterback, Derek Carr, get fined $14,000 after celebrating a touchdown while crushing the Cowboys 44-19. With four touchdowns, Alvin Kamara was the “Thriller” in this game. However, Carr kept up his good play, throwing for 243 yards and two touchdowns in addition to a touchdown on the ground in the victory over Dallas. And that’s when Carr launched into a Michael Jackson impression, complete with “Wacko Jacko’s” signature crotch grab, following that rushing score.
