🔥 WHAT WE’RE DEBATING

🏈 Can Dak keep carrying this offense?

We celebrate his franchise touchdown record and discuss the chemistry with CeeDee Lamb, Jake Ferguson’s impact and why George Pickens needs a bigger role.

🏈 Is the run defense ready for Baltimore?

We examine missed opportunities, containing mobile quarterbacks and whether Christian Parker can get this defense off the field when it matters.

🏈 Can Dallas get Javonte Williams going?

Tyler Smith’s absence, offensive line struggles and limited rushing production raise questions about how balanced this offense can become.

🏈 Will Jerry Jones make a move?

We react to his “old man with money” comment and debate whether the roster needs outside help. NBC Sports reports Jones remains willing to spend to improve Dallas.

Cowboys DISASTER: Is the Season Already Over? | Ep. 44 | JP & Lombardi Talk Sports

Dallas Cowboys vs. Giants reaction: Is Christian Parker’s defense already a concern, and how costly was Dak Prescott’s interception? Lombardi and JP break down Dallas’ 28-20 Week 1 loss and preview a crucial matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Episode 44 of Lombardi and JP Talk Sports tackles the questions driving the Cowboys conversation on September 14, 2026. After an offseason of expectations, Dallas opened with familiar problems: defensive breakdowns, missed opportunities and costly penalties.

Our take: the Cowboys’ problems go beyond one interception. Lombardi and JP question the team’s preparation, debate the lack of defensive adjustments and disagree over whether Jerry Jones or the players and coaches deserve the most blame.

In this full episode:

🏈 Dak Prescott’s interception: How the turnover before halftime changed the momentum against the Giants.

🏈 Christian Parker’s defense: Why Dallas struggled against Jaxson Dart, the running game and repeated throws into the flat.

🏈 CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens: Missed connections, dropped passes and getting the Cowboys offense back in rhythm.

🏈 Brian Schottenheimer and coaching accountability: Did sitting starters in the preseason leave Dallas unprepared?

🏈 Cowboys stock up, stock down: Javonte Williams’ effort and a disappointing defensive performance.

🏈 The Jerry Jones debate: Did the offseason moves fail, or does the responsibility fall on execution and coaching?

🏈 Cowboys vs. Commanders Week 2 preview: Containing Jayden Daniels, fixing the run defense and avoiding an 0-2 NFC East start.

We finish with two very different predictions: Lombardi picks Washington 28-14, while JP backs Dallas 31-17. Can the Cowboys respond in their home opener, or did Week 1 expose bigger problems?

💬 Who deserves the most blame for the loss? Leave your take and your Cowboys vs. Commanders prediction in the comments.
