Ever since the days of Aikman, Smith, and Irvin, the Cowboys have been looking for the next iteration of “The Triplets.” There have been some electrifying trios to wear the star since then, but no combo of starting quarterback, running back, and wide receiver has quite lived up to the lofty standard set by the dynasty crew. One outlet says the 2022 version is actually among the best in the league… but could likely be even better.
Elsewhere, we’re weighing whether CeeDee Lamb is truly an upgrade over Amari Cooper, we’re examining which Cowboys are playing with the biggest chips on their shoulders, and we’re taking a look at two of the team’s Day Three draft picks to see if there’s a hidden gem. Also, Dak Prescott discusses what society at large just might be able to learn from an NFL locker room in today’s divisive times, a first-round rookie reflects on the expectations that come with a simple jersey number, we’re looking at which games on the 2022 schedule could be traps for this Cowboys squad, and two faces of the franchise represent on separate continents during a full holiday weekend’s worth of auto racing. That’s all ahead in News and Notes.
