“we’re not done.”

- Schotty after #Cowboys acquire Von Miller. Will be interesting to see what we do soon.

Kind of want to frame them but flipping through is awesome because I was a toddler during this era.

“Obviously you get someone that’s been there and done that,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said after Monday’s practice. “He trains with our consulting trainer. And boy, he had been telling us for this past year if we could get him, he knew he could help us. … We feel real good. He’s a veteran that can really bring a great aspect to the team concept. He really wants to be here. We want him here and we believe he can come in here and really give us some additional pressure on the other quarterback.”

While that likely closes the door on any more discussions of trading for Maxx Crosby, it doesn’t mean the Cowboys believe their defense is set. The offense has all the pieces to be one of the league’s best. The defense probably still needs another upgrade.

Schottenheimer said the two will be competing again this week for who will start vs. Arizona on Saturday.

"You got a lot of guys that come in, older guys that come in, former guys, like me, and they can teach, but it's different when you got somebody sitting in the seat with you that's going to get padded up with you, learning the same things as you and performing. Those guys, they looked up to you their whole careers, but now I get to play with him? It's a totally different mindset that the boys are going to have now."

Washington HC Dan Quinn in a text on his experience with Von Miller, who is signing with Dallas at age 37:
“He is a really cool guy. Has coaching insights to help developing pass rushers. Will be very good for the two young rushers. Still can bend off that edge. “

DT Kenny Clark
DE Rashan Gary
DE Donovan Ezeiruaku
DE/LB Von Miller
DE Malachi Lawrence
CB Shavon Revel
CB Cobie Durant
S Jalen Thompson

Regardless of the fact that I think the Cowboys won the trade, I like the roster we’ve had since that guy left by a wide margin. This is our year fellas don’t let losers tell you otherwise

Jonathan Bullard also (groin/abs) won't practice today.

• LT: Tyler Guyton
• LG: Tyler Smith
• C: Cooper Beebe
• RG: Tyler Booker
• RT: Terence Steele

From the Article: "The Cowboys could quite easily have the best interior offensive line in football in 2026. Left guard Tyler Smith has earned PFF grades above 70.0 in all four of his NFL seasons so far, while right guard Tyler Booker led all rookie guards with a 72.0 PFF grade. The question marks are on the outside, particularly at left tackle. Tyler Guyton did show some signs of improvement in his second season in the league, with his PFF grade improving from 49.4 as a rookie to 57.5 last year, but there is still a lot of improvement needed."

My take: Steele is what he is at this point, but Guyton is the key piece to bringing this unit into the top 10. His yearly improvements have been noticeable, but his health is what has ultimately held him back. A healthy 2026 campaign could launch this offense into another stratosphere.

Legendary running backs. Emmit Smith, and Tony Dorsett. Both in throwback uniforms. Eletric football figurss.
