Cowboys Made 2 Roster Moves Saturday

After a strong Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns, the Dallas Cowboys came crashing back down to Earth in Week 2 when they were blown out at home against the New Orleans Saints.

The Saints simply dominated the Cowboys from the opening drive, hitting on multiple explosive plays to take a commanding lead that they never relinquished.

Now, Dallas has a lot of questions to answer as they head into a Week 3 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens who are surprisingly still searching for their first win of the 2024 NFL season.

A desperate Ravens team will be a load to handle, especially since the Cowboys have largely struggled to defend the run through two weeks.

Baltimore has one of the best rushing attacks in the league behind Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, so Dallas has its work cut out for them.

Ahead of the highly-anticipated matchup, the Cowboys made some additions to their defense via Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2.

“#Cowboys elevate Carl Lawson, Nick Vigil,” Wilson reported.

Defensive lineman Carl Lawson signed with Dallas in the offseason after his time with the New York Jets, while linebacker Nick Vigil will be receiving his third call up already this season.

Lawson and Vigil will serve as depth pieces for the Cowboys, though it’s hard to imagine either player making much of an impact with the starting rotation already largely set.

Stopping the run has to be the focal point of the Dallas defense as Baltimore’s offense is predicated off running the football.

It’ll be interesting to see which of the two playoff hopefuls emerges victorious come Sunday.

Bears Are Reportedly Doing ‘Serious Homework’ On 1 Coaching Candidate

Interim head coach Thomas Brown hasn’t won a game, leading most to believe there is little chance he gets any consideration to be the permanent replacement. With that in mind, the Bears reportedly are looking into other possible candidates. “The Bears are looking for a ‘leader of men’ for their opening at HC, and GM Ryan Poles has been doing ‘serious homework’ on [Miami] Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver, per Dianna Russini,” JPAFootball wrote on X.

Lakers Given Notable Odds To Make NBA Finals

(Photo by Sam Hodde/Getty Images)   Because of their history and roster, the Los Angeles Lakers are always aiming to reach the NBA Finals. However, that is obviously much easier said than done. This year, the betting markets believe they have a chance of competing for a championship, but it’s not a huge one. According to Polymarket, the Lakers have an eight percent shot of going to the Finals. Even with some smart acquisitions and Luka Doncic starting his first full season with the team, the Lakers still have their work cut out for them.

Standout Packers RB Gets Nominated For Notable NFL Award

With Josh Jacobs out with a knee injury, someone would have to step up to lead the way against the Minnesota Vikings. Fortunately for them, backup RB Emanuel Wilson was more than up to the task. That’s why, after his strong performance, it’s not much of a surprise to see him being nominated for the FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week: “Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12,” Kruse posted on X. #Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12. — Zach Kruse (@zachkruse2) November 24, 2025 Wilson was shifty and explosive out of the backfield. He forced missed tackles left and right, and he was a factor with his pass blocking and reliable hands in the passing game as well. It was a much-welcome per...
