Cowboys StoryLine: Early Must-Win?

It seems a little early in the year for any team to have their backs against the wall, but with an 0-1 start and a daunting schedule awaiting them, this has a feel of a game the Cowboys "must" find a way to win.

The ups and downs of the season are already among us - especially the downward part after the first loss. But it's time get back on the horse and the callers are already figuring out how to knock off Washington.

The big focus amongst the callers today was the lack of preseason reps the starters got this year? Where do you stand on the injury risk vs. not having enough prep for Week 1?

After just one game - and not a pretty one - the Cowboys fans are already unsure what to think about the 2026 season. Yes, it's a long season but hopefully it won't be filled with long nights such as Sunday.

The final show of the offseason is complete. The next show will be to recap a game - finally! We give one final preview with game predictions as the Cowboys head off to New York.

We're just a couple of days away from finding some answers to the biggest question of the offseason - What does this Cowboys look like?

For the last few months, we've been talking about how things both look and feel different this season, but one thing that all fans would like to keep is the Cowboys dominance over the Giants.

The regular season is now officially among us, putting the offseason to rest. But it sounds like the Cowboys fans are still wanting some changes to the roster.

Even after a couple days after his release, Joe Milton was the topic of conversation with the callers wondering why he's not on the roster and the decision to keep just two quarterbacks.

While the Cowboys made nearly 40 roster moves, they probably aren't done. What could be next? Expect changes at running back, cornerback and perhaps linebacker.

With one preseason game to play, we keep focusing on the bottom of the roster and the position battles that are still unsettled, such as wide receiver, running back and quarterback.

With the Cowboys back home and still have one preseason game to play, the callers are trying to help cut down the roster and have found lots of depth, making it impossible to keep all of the talent.

In the final podcast from Oxnard, we break down the fighting spirit of the Saints practice and dive into Von Miller's role, his number and his impact on the defense.

One of the best pass rushers in NFL history and a future Hall of Famer is headed to this defense. Just what do we expect from Von Miller?

While there is excitement stemming from the Rams joint practice, especially from the defense, we still need to remind everyone that it was a practice and there is still plenty of work to do and progress to be made.

With preseason football finally under way, the excitement seems higher than ever for the Cowboys, who are getting the hype from the national media. But the callers wanna know … is that a good thing?

One position that continues to be addressed is cornerback and how these guys are covering the receivers in practice. While it does look like it improved group, it still has the most question marks.

Many of the regular callers from StoryLine made their annual trip to Oxnard with plenty of questions about the first padded practice.

A lot of the questions we've had should get answered with the pads coming on Monday. Is Barham for real? Which RB will rise to the occasion?

Our first show of camp has a new look to match the new vibes of camp but some of the veteran callers want to know which players we should be watching from the jump!

Even before his first StoryLine podcast of camp, Nick Eatman introduced a new series at camp, chatting it up with fans on the "FenceLine."

Even in the middle of the summer, there was a little math being mentioned on the show. Crunching numbers on things such as Pickens' contract, stats to evaluate and days to training camp were all mentioned on the final show before the break.

The offseason is winding down, and on the second to last show, the callers are trying to see if the Cowboys still need more help from the outside or if the players within can get the job done.

The trade the Cowboys didn't make had the fans buzzing on the lines. Could they have done what the Rams did and if so, how? Could there be another trade in the works?

The show had a healthy mix of first-time callers and some of the regulars - all creating a wide range of topics from the positions that still need to be addressed to the one game you'd love to win over the rest!
