A final resolution on the Trevon Diggs situation occurred as the Cowboys cut ties with the veteran CB. The callers weighed in on that situation and gave their opinions on whether Dak should play this final game.

How many holes do the Cowboys really need to fix? One of the topics on today's show revolved around problem areas and how many positions need to be fully upgraded in 2026.

Even with one game to play, the focus is already on the 2026 season in the contracts that need to be paid. Do the Cowboys sign Pickens, Javonte or both and maybe neither and focus all on defense.

This is the season of giving and the time when we focus on presents. But it appears there is way more talk about the future than the actual present as we did our final show before Christmas.

This season has shown us all they need to get more great players and there's no better place to do that than the first round. The fans agree the Cowboys need to make sure and keep those first-rounders and put less focus on the second round and beyond.

The Cowboys still have three games to play and will keep fighting to the end, but some of the coaches and the players will be evaluated with their future potentially on the line.

This is the time to grade out the coaching performances and it starts with the head coach. The callers weighed in on Brian Schottenheimer's first year and compared it to Mike McCarthy, who coached the team the previous five seasons.

Where's the focus here in the last three games as the Cowboys could be eliminated from the playoffs even before they play again. Is the goal to win out or focus on playing younger guys, or maybe a combo of both?

The callers were holding out hope that maybe the Cowboys could make a final playoff push but after the Vikings loss, what is the plan now as we shift towards the final three games?

To play or not to play certain players, but then dug in on the Trevon Diggs saga, even tuning into head coach Brian Shotteneheimer's press conference to hear him answer the first few questions on releasing Diggs and then giving their thought on the subject before actually making picks and picks to click for the final game of the season against the Giants.

Breaking news strikes in the middle of the podcast, the Cowboys outright releasing CB Trevon Diggs with one game left in the season and three years left on his non-guaranteed base salaries, and the guys react, no one really surprised this saga has come to this end. Also talk of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and position of greatest need going forward.

With the Christmas break after beating Washington, almost forget the Cowboys won on Christmas Day. So much to discuss, including Bill's annual family Christmas lineup introductions, how this season very well could have been a perfect 10, NFL playoff teams, oh those Eagles and a Cotton Bowl around the corner.

Merry Christmas to all as we approach Christmas Day, making a point of discussing quarterbacks and their development, how Chargers QB Justin Herbert with no pressure tore up the Cowboys defense, the Cowboys Pro Bowlers, the line moves and the possibility the Chargers, and maybe Denver, where the best opponents the Cowboys faced this year.

Digesting the loss to the Chargers with the help of Nate in Frisco, focusing on moving Tyler Smith to left tackle, the fact the Cowboys were somewhat forced to play Trevon Diggs at corner, the plight of defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus and a defense having given up at least 30 points eight times this season.

The fact Trevon Diggs was released wasn't a big surprise, although when he got let go was a shock. But the acts of defiance got to be too much with the trip to Washington D.C. the last straw. Simply put, Diggs seemingly no longer wanted to be a Cowboy. We dive deeper into yesterday's big news, plus look ahead to Sunday's game.

Nate Newton, Jesse Holley and Shannon Gross discuss latest Dallas Cowboys news and notes on Cowboys Break.

Who Plays? Who Doesn't? With two games to go, should the Cowboys think about sitting players? Make sure Dak Prescott is healthy for next while letting Joe Milton get some experience? Or does that send the wrong message, especially for a team trying to rebuild its culture. As Nate tell us, losing can become a culture too. Plus, Jesse's stat and our predictions.

It's not coaches make players, right? So would a different defensive coordinator really produced different results? Perhaps, but probably not in a big way. Plus, could Tyler Smith moving to left tackle become permanent? Let's hope not. He's a Pro Bowl guard, after all. And has this team struggled to make in-game adjustments on offense as well? Where are the counterpunches?

It wasn't that long ago that the Cowboys appeared to have the best cornerback combo in the NFL. Now, DaRon Bland is out again with a foot injury, and the status of Trevon Diggs is still up in the air. My how quickly things can change. Plus, for all the criticism the defensive line and secondary have received this season, are the linebackers the real problem? Plus, Jesse's stat and our predictions.

How are we watching the games now that the Cowboys will likely miss the playoffs? Want them to win? Lose to get a higher a draft pick? Plus, has Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert lived up to his billing? Can the Dallas defense slow him down? What about their receivers? Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey are some of the best route runners in the business. It's another tough task ahead.

Don't look now but the Chargers are coming to town with one of the best defenses in the league. And they're physical. What can the Cowboys do to attack them? Will head coach Brian Schottenheimer be more aggressive? Will they try to get George Pickens more involved? Plus, could we see more opportunities for Dak Prescott to run? There just might be some openings there for the taking.

Just when we think the Cowboys are going to get on a roll, they instead stumble. What happened against the Vikings? No pressure on defense, no success on third downs, questionable coaching decisions. Is this team just not what we thought it would be? Dallas is on the brink of elimination after another disappointing performance.

The Cowboys have got to win the rest of their games to get in the playoffs. Does that add more pressure? Hey, if you can't handle the heat, better get out of the kitchen, right? But do they know how to win? Do they have enough players who have made playoff runs before who can lead the way? Plus, Jesse's key stat and our predictions.
