The Dallas Cowboys fall to 2-4 after a 23-13 loss to the Green Bay Packers, and Jeff and Nick have plenty to say about it.

This week on The Dead Jeff Show, we're breaking down what's going wrong in Dallas, from Dak Prescott's recent struggles to Brian Schottenheimer's questionable offensive adjustments and a defense that still can't get off the field on third down.

Things get especially heated when Jeff calls out Dak's performance while Nick argues that the Cowboys quarterback isn't getting nearly enough help. Is Dak regressing, or are the coaching staff and supporting cast setting him up to fail?

We also discuss the Cowboys' defensive bright spots, Christian Parker's future, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, and whether Dallas can turn things around with several winnable games ahead.

Plus, Nick's Picks for NFL Week 7, our Top 5 and Bottom 5 NFL teams, and predictions for what's next around the league.

The Cowboys are 2-4, but the NFC East is still within reach. Can Dallas save its season?

Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram returns to The Dead Jeff Show!

After the Cowboys' big road win over Houston, Nick joins Jeff and Nick for an in-depth look at where Dallas really stands four games into the 2026 season.

We start with the feeling inside the Cowboys locker room following a win that Nick describes as a major morale boost, especially after Dallas failed to finish a similar opportunity against Baltimore in Brazil.

From there, we get into everything Cowboys:

Dak Prescott is putting together another impressive start, but can anything he does during the regular season change his reputation without a deep playoff run?

CeeDee Lamb delivered one of the biggest performances of his career against Houston while defenses continue devoting extra attention to George Pickens. Nick explains why the combination of CeeDee and Pickens could make this Dallas passing attack incredibly difficult to defend.

On the other side of the ball, the conversation gets much more complicated. Nick believes the Cowboys defense is behind where he expected it to be, particularly when it comes to generating sacks and pressure. We discuss Christian Parker, the young pass rushers, injuries throughout the secondary, Joey Porter Jr.'s arrival and whether this defense can improve quickly enough to complement what Dallas has on offense.

We also discuss the Cowboys' remaining draft capital, whether Dallas should consider another blockbuster move, and how aggressive this front office should be if the Cowboys emerge as legitimate contenders.

Then after Nick Harris signs off, we keep going with Nick's Picks, our NFL Top 5 and Bottom 5, and a preview of Cowboys vs. Buccaneers.

Huge thanks to Nick Harris and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram for joining us again.

The Cowboys are 1-1 after a 37-20 win over Washington, and we're going back to the film to figure out what Dallas should feel good about — and what should have Cowboys fans concerned.

Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb got the offense rolling, young defenders showed signs of improvement, and Dallas walked away with the win. But the Cowboys are still struggling to run the football and, more importantly, stop the run.

That's not exactly ideal with Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry up next.

Jeff and Nick preview Cowboys vs. Ravens in Brazil and break down the matchup, what Dallas must do defensively, whether the Cowboys can contain Lamar's legs, and why the offense may have to put up 30+ to win.

We also go around the NFC East, look at how injuries are changing the division, bring back Nick's Picks, and reveal our early-season NFL Top 5 and Bottom 5.

It's a football-heavy episode of The Dead Jeff Show as the Cowboys prepare for their biggest test of the young season.

The Dallas Cowboys are 0–1, and Cowboys Nation is already in midseason form.

Jeff and Nick react to Dallas' Week 1 loss to the New York Giants and try to separate the legitimate concerns from the Week 1 overreactions.

What actually went wrong? What did we learn about the offense and defense? Which performances should concern Cowboys fans moving forward? What are we making too much of after only one game? And after all the offseason hope and hype, are we already experiencing Cowboys déjà vu?

Here we go… again? Or is everyone overreacting?

We break down the loss, Dak Prescott, the offense, the defense, coaching decisions, the biggest disappointments and any positives we can take into Week 2.

One game down. Sixteen to go. Let's see how worried Cowboys fans really need to be.

Football is back, and we're going heavy on the Dallas Cowboys as the 2026 regular season gets underway.

Jeff and Nick preview Cowboys vs. Giants, breaking down the biggest matchups, the battle in the trenches, Dak Prescott vs. Jaxson Dart, the Giants' offensive weapons, the new coaching eras and what Dallas needs to do to start the season 1–0. Then we make our official game predictions and get into Nick's Picks.

Before the Week 1 preview, we discuss the Cowboys' recent salary-cap movement and whether it could signal another move. Could Maxx Crosby actually be in play? We also get into the Joe Milton situation and Von Miller's arrival in Dallas—including his jersey-number deal with Hunter Luepke and why Nick isn't sold on the veteran pass rusher.

Then it's time for Sports & Jorts and a look around college football after a wild opening weekend featuring Michigan, Indiana, Oregon, Texas, Arch Manning, Lane Kiffin and more.

The offseason is over. Cowboys football is officially back.

The final 53 is here—and this episode is ALL Dallas Cowboys.

Jeff and Nick break down the Cowboys' finalized 53-man roster heading into the 2026 NFL season, going through the biggest decisions on offense and defense, surprise players who made the team, notable cuts, training camp winners and the position battles that shaped the final roster.

Which position groups are we confident in? Where does Dallas still have questions? Who could emerge as a breakout player? And, after an entire offseason of speculation, did the Cowboys get the final 53 right?

Training camp is finished. The preseason is over. The roster is set.

Now it's time for Week 1 and the 2026 Dallas Cowboys season.

The Cowboys are finally back on the field, and Jeff and Nick are breaking down what we learned from their latest preseason action.

We dive into the biggest defensive takeaways, what stood out on offense, players who helped themselves, areas that still need improvement, and our first impressions of the Cowboys coaching staff in a live-game environment.

We also go around the NFL for some of the biggest preseason storylines, injuries, standout performances and other quick hits before wrapping up with what's happening elsewhere in the sports world.

The results may not count yet, but we're getting our first real clues about what the 2026 Dallas Cowboys could look like when the regular season begins.

It's another football-heavy episode of The Dead Jeff Show as the countdown to Week 1 continues.
