Dallas Cowboys sit at 3-5 after an overtime loss to Arizona, sparking fan anger toward owner Jerry Jones and coach Brian Schottenheimer. In a recent interview on 105.3 The FAN, Jones dismisses claims he’s a cheapskate on head‑coach salaries, arguing pay doesn’t correlate with wins.

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back Jeremiyah Love (pick #3 overall) is placed on injured reserve after a high‑ankle sprain sidelines him for 4‑5 weeks, marking his third ankle injury of the 2026 season. The 23‑year‑old logged 13 touches for 50 yards and a TD in his debut, followed by modest production in the next three games before missing two contests and returning for just nine touches in Week 8. The injury ends a turbulent rookie campaign that began with a preseason setback.

The Arizona Cardinals have placed rookie running back Jeremiyah Love on injured reserve after a high‑ankle sprain suffered in the overtime win over the Dallas Cowboys. Love, the No. 3 pick in the 2026 draft, posted 268 rushing yards, a rushing TD, and a receiving TD in 76 carries before the injury sidelined him for at least four weeks. Tyler Allgeier is expected to shoulder the load as the Cardinals head into a tough stretch that includes games against Seattle, the Rams, and the Chiefs. Love could return after the Week 14 bye, possibly on Dec. 20 versus the Jets.

SB Nation Reacts asks Cowboys fans to weigh in on the 30‑30 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, dissecting whether the offense or defense bears more blame. The piece highlights the offense’s missed opportunities despite CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens sitting out key plays, while also noting their 30‑point output and late‑quarter leads.

He signed a four‑year, $53.87 million contract with a $35.64 million signing bonus.
Jeremiyah Love's difficult rookie season has only gotten worse.
After a 33-30 win over Dallas in Week 8, the Arizona Cardinals battle a slew of injuries and add rookie tight end Rivaldo Fairweather to their practice squad. Fairweather, who led the preseason with 13 catches and spent last year on the Cowboys’ practice roster, goes undrafted in 2025 but posted 123 receptions for 1,604 yards and 13 touchdowns at FIU and Auburn. With nine players on IR and starters like WR Michael Wilson and RB Jeremiyah Love dealing with broken ribs and an ankle injury, the squad hopes Fairweather might earn his first NFL game as depth tight end heading into Week 9.
The Baltimore Ravens sign former Arizona Cardinals QB Kedon Slovis off the Green Bay Packers’ practice squad to bolster the third‑string role after Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley go down. Slovis, 25, entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2024 and has only five regular‑season snaps, but posted strong preseason numbers with the Packers (434 yards, 83.6 PFF grade). He joins a tight Ravens QB room that also includes Joe Fagnano, Austin Reed, and a potential look at Adrian Martinez. Slovis faces a quick learning curve as the Ravens aim to address their injury‑hit depth chart.
After the Cowboys' worst loss of the 2026 season—a 28‑24 overtime defeat to the Arizona Cardinals—owner Jerry Jones says he won’t fire head coach Brian Schottenheimer. Jones argues the game plan was intentionally conservative to protect Dak Prescott and improve the run game, despite fan criticism. The loss drops Dallas to 3‑5, marking the second consecutive home collapse to the Cardinals, but the team remains in the NFC East playoff hunt as they prepare for a road game at the Indianapolis Colts next Sunday.
The Arizona Cardinals have added 24‑year‑old tight end Rivaldo Fairweather to their practice squad, according to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz. Fairweather entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the Dallas Cowboys after the 2025 draft, spent time on their practice squad, and was signed by Arizona in December before being cut in the preseason. In college he logged 123 catches for 1,604 yards and 13 TDs across 51 games at FIU and Auburn.
After a baffling 33-30 overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Dallas Cowboys slump to 3-5, marking the fifth straight defeat to Arizona and an unbeaten streak for the Cardinals at AT&T Stadium. A 14-point fourth‑quarter lead evaporated when backup Gardner Minshew replaced Jacoby Brissett, throwing three TDs as the defense collapsed. Tyler Allgeier exploded for 191 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns, yet the Cowboys could not contain the Cardinals’ 27 second‑half points. Coach Brian Schottenheimer’s overly conservative play‑calling in the final minutes—opting for a run and a sack instead of aggressive passing—sealed the loss, raising questions about the team’s preparation, identity, and ability to close games.
After a 33-30 overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals that dropped the Dallas Cowboys to 3-5, owner Jerry Jones defended his low‑pay approach to head coaches on 105.3 The Fan’s Shan & RJ show.

The Cowboys face the Indianapolis Colts next Sunday.
After a 33-30 overtime loss to Arizona that dropped Dallas to 3-5, owner‑coach Jerry Jones publicly blames quarterback Dak Prescott for the Cowboys’ offensive slide. While Jones praises the defense’s rebuilding under coordinator Christian Parker, he says the offense—ranked seventh overall but faltering after a strong start—must step up. Prescott’s production fell from 30.5 points per game and eight touchdowns in the first four games to 14.5 points and four interceptions over the next two, with the running game sputtering and key receivers George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb underutilized. Jones urges Prescott to deliver more ball and points as Dallas fights to regain its footing.
Michael Irred on ESPN’s First Take ignites controversy after the Dallas Cowboys’ 33-30 overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Irvin lashes out at head coach Brian Schottenheimer, claiming even his “dead mom” could coach the team better, a remark that shocks host Stephen A. Smith and sparks a wave of disbelief on social media. The defeat drops Dallas to 3-5, ending a rare home‑lead‑by‑14‑points‑in‑the‑fourth‑quarter streak, and the Cowboys will face the Indianapolis Colts next week while owner Jerry Jones vows to keep Schottenheimer.
After a 26.6‑point per game defense and a 3‑5 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Dallas Cowboys' push for an edge‑rusher hits a snag: a new report says a Josh Sweat trade is unlikely due to Arizona’s high asking price. Insider Jason La Canfora notes Jerry Jones remains "all‑in" on boosting the pass rush, but the Cowboys may need to pivot to other names. Maxx Crosby and veteran Khalil Mack emerge as top alternatives, with Mack—now on an expiring contract—offering a cheaper, high‑impact option if the Chargers move early. The article weighs these options ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline.
