George Pickens is ready to go for the Cowboys

Wide receiver George Pickens has touchdown catches in two of his last three games and he’ll have a chance to make it three of four against the Cardinals on Sunday. Pickens was listed as questionable on the Cowboys’ final injury report due to shoulder and hamstring issues, but he avoided the inactive list ahead of kickoff in Dallas. Pickens has 37 catches for 485 yards overall this season. Defensive tackle Kenny Clark was also listed as questionable for the Cowboys due to a back injury. He joins Pickens in the lineup for Week 8.

Ryan Flournoy Has Sleeper Potential Vs Weak Defense In Week 8

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy is coming off multiple double-digit PPR fantasy point performances in his last three games. Though some of those points were scored in garbage time, it's nice to see him more consistently involved in the offense and getting targeted on passes that have the potential to score enough points to be fantasy relevant. There's always risk when starting a team's WR3 in fantasy football, but that risk could be mitigated by playing against the dismal Arizona Cardinals pass defense. They rank near the bottom of the league in yards per pass attempt, PPR fantasy points to wide receivers, and passing touchdowns given up to opposing offenses this season. We could see a shootout result in enough fantasy points to go around for Cowboys WRs CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens (hamstring/shoulder), and Flournoy to all have great games. Treat Flournoy as a WR4 with upside in deeper leagues for Week 8

Why Cowboys' offensive revival could launch an NFC East run

The Dallas Cowboys (3-4) were down in the dumps after consecutive primetime losses against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Green Bay Packers . Their offense had become stale while Brian Schottenheimer and George Pickens traded barbs during the week . Panic levels were at a fever pitch after Dallas scored below 20 points in consecutive starts for the first time in seven years with Dak Prescott . All of that is now washed away after the Cowboys' 38-21 road victory at the Philadelphia Eagles (2-5) on "Monday Night Football" that all but buried their hated rival this season and put Dallas back on track in their pursuit for their first NFC East division title since 2023. The Cowboys got everything they could have hoped for on Monday in a get-right game against the two-time defending division champs, albeit a battered version of them, quarterbacked by backup Tanner McKee and led by Saquon Barkley on one leg with a hamstring injury. Prescott threw for 212 yards and three touchdowns. Javonte Williams totaled a career-high 150 yards rushing and a touchdown on 25 carries for a 6.2 yards per carry average. CeeDee Lamb led the way with 74 yards receiving and two receiving touchdowns on five catches while Pickens caught a 21-yard diving touchdown. For as beat up as the Eagles were, most of those injuries were on their offense. With Williams rolling, the Eagles had no answer for Prescott, Lamb, Pickens and Dallas' passing game. W-L 0-2 1-0 PPG 14.5 38 Rush YPG 49.0 204* Turnovers 5 0 * Dallas' most rushing yards against the Eagles since 2000 Edge rusher Nolan Smith (concussion) was the only Philadelphia defensive starter out on Monday, but a limited Barkley, no Jalen Hurts and no DeVonta Smith led to an environment where an outmatched Eagles squad couldn't keep pace with Dallas' high-flying, locked-in attack. The Cowboys should feel good about their ability to put Philadelphia out of their misery at Lincoln Financial Field. Oft-injured linebacker DeMarvion Overshown overcame a hamstring that had him sidelined since Week 1 to return Monday night in Week 7 to tally his first interception since 2024. Everything the Cowboys could have hoped for came to fruition while they were able to avoid an avalanche from Barkley, who finished with 62 yards and a touchdown on seven carries. Barkley pulled up after an apparent hamstring reaggravation at the tail end of his 29-yard run on the Eagles' opening drive. DEMARVION OVERSHOWN INT DALvsPHI on ESPN⁰Stream on @NFLPlus pic.twitter.com/SH5FW4gwC0 Dallas' schedule now parts like the Red Sea as they take aim at overtaking the first-place New York Giants (4-2-1) for the NFC East lead. The Cowboys' next five opponents have a combined 13-22 record, with their only game against a team with a winning record from Weeks 8-12 coming in the friendly confines of AT&T Stadium against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10. Week 8 vs. Cardinals 2-5 Week 9 at Colts 2-5 Week 10 vs. 49ers 6-1 Week 11 vs. Titans 1-6 Week 12 vs. Eagles 2-5 Plus, Prescott rediscovered his connection with both Lamb and Pickens. He had no touchdowns and two interceptions when targeting his dynamic wide receiver duo in Week 6 against the Packers, but against Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio's unit on Monday night, he threw three touchdowns to no interceptions when targeting Lamb and Pickens. Dallas' face-of-the-franchise quarterback now has 39 victories in his first 40 starts against the NFC East with 98 touchdown passes to 24 interceptions. That's tied for the most wins in a quarterback's first 50 divisional starts since the 1970 AFL/NFL merger with Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes . After all the handwringing about Pickens' offensive involvement, he's now up to 260 yards receiving and 2 touchdowns across the last three games after just 225 yards and no touchdowns in Dallas' first four games. Prescott, Schottenheimer and the rest of the Cowboys' offense waved a magic wand and seemingly fixed all their offensive [... truncated ...]

Javonte Williams: Good to give confidence to keep calling runs

Given the number of factors that go into determining winners and losers in NFL games, it’s hard to pin the Cowboys’ back-to-back losses solely on running back Javonte Williams carrying the ball 23 times in Weeks 5 and 6. Offensive balance is always a good thing, though, and it wasn’t hard to notice a difference in how the Cowboys were attacking the Eagles on Monday night. Williams kept getting the ball and it didn’t feel like a coincidence that they fed an effort that resulted in a convincing 38-21 road win. Williams ran 25 times for a career-high 155 yards and sealed the win with a fourth quarter touchdown. The Cowboys also gave the ball to Tyler Goodson 11 times while Dak Prescott was connecting with CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens for three touchdowns through the air. “It was good to give [head coach Brian Schottenheimer] the confidence to keep calling the runs,” Williams said, via the team’s website. “He made a big emphasis on that this week — to get at least 25 rushes in a game. . . . We were just trying to get back to a balanced offense, and I feel like we did a great job tonight. We’ve got a high-powered offense, and when you’ve got G.P., CeeDee, Jake Ferguson, those guys on the outside, I mean, it’s going to open up the running.” The Cowboys only managed 29 points in their losses to the Packers and Buccaneers in the previous two games and that’s not a recipe for success for a team that’s built around an ability to score points in bunches. Monday night was more like it and the Cowboys will be trying to stay in the groove they found in Philadelphia

Monday Night Football: Cowboys run past Eagles 38-21

The Cowboys saved their season, at least for another week, and the Eagles’ postseason hopes took a huge hit Monday night. Dallas beat Philadelphia 38-21 to end a two-game losing streak and move to 3-4. The Eagles, who are decimated by injuries, have lost five in a row to fall to 2-5. They started the game without quarterback Jalen Hurts and wide receivers DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks, among others, and finished it without running backs Saquon Barkley and Dameon Pierce. Barkley, who was returning after missing two games with a hamstring injury, left with a back injury. He had seven carries for 62 yards and a touchdown and two catches for 9 yards in limited usage before his new injury. Pierce left in the fourth quarter with an undisclosed injury after 14 carries for 47 yards and a touchdown. The game was back-and-forth for most of the night, with six lead changes. The last came on CeeDee Lamb’s 16-yard touchdown reception and Dak Prescott’s 2-point conversion that gave the Cowboys a 28-21 lead with 1:30 left in the third quarter. Brian Schottenheimer, whose play calling was criticized after he abandoned the run in the second half last week, called for more runs than passes. The Cowboys ran it 38 times for 204 yards and threw it 27 times for 212 yards. The Eagles had zero tackles for loss. Javonte Williams set a career-high with 155 yards and scored a touchdown on 25 carries. He is the Cowboys’ first 150-yard rusher since Ezekiel Elliott in 2018. Prescott was 15-of-27 for 212 yards and three touchdowns. Lamb caught five passes for 74 yards and two touchdowns and George Pickens had four receptions for 57 yards and a touchdown. Tanner McKee, starting for the second consecutive week in place of Hurts, went 23-of-35 for 211 yards with a touchdown and an interception. Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown picked him in the second half. Rookie wide receiver Makai Lemon caught seven passes for 67 yards and a touchdown

George Pickens' highlight-reel TD catch puts Cowboys back on top

Brian Schottenheimer said he wanted to see more out of wide receiver George Pickens this week. Pickens gave him a highlight-reel touchdown catch. On third-and-3 from the Philadelphia 21, Dak Prescott threw a dot to the back corner of the end zone. Pickens, who was tightly covered by safety Andrew Mukuba, made a spectacular catch and managed to get both feet in bounds. It was Pickens’ second catch of the night on three targets, and he has 30 yards. The Cowboys lead 17-14 as neither defense has a stop yet. The Cowboys have outgained the Eagles 191 to 140, with one extra possession. Prescott is 8-of-13 for 96 yards and two touchdowns
